This and the Venitian Mix of I'd Rather Be High really could have been the album versions as far as I am concerned. The Jame Murphy Mix brings everything Bowie has done for 40 some odd years into focus and really full circle. The album version is wonderful, but it is possibly the most Prog track on the album for me. If I was programing the initial release it would have been the final track on the cd. And wouldn't it have enraged reviewers to have a 10 minute track on the cd.

Love this. Santa brought me The Next Day Extra for Christmas. It's stuffed with more brill things.
It wasn't released until the 17th Dec, that's probably why. It may have made my list as well if released earlier.
Got it on white vinyl, fantastic chrimbo pressy to myself.
