This summary seems to have been written by someone who was too young to have been around during the era - and they probably read some of the "Q" articles on the period, which accounts for the overly simplistic characterization of the period. This isn't to say that its completely incorrect only that its a bit odd that they left out so much 68.218.61.33 03:19, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's actually probably only a stub mainly if not entirely copied over from the Station to Station article--72.173.160.50 (talk) 12:15, 13 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would attend to agree with your assessments, anonymous users. Bowie began the "Thin White Duke" phase after Diamond Dogs. it's true. And continued it on through his role as Tommy Newton in Nicholas Roeg's "The Man Who fell to Earth." Equating it with his coke habit, it would have ended w/"Low", the first of the albums in the Berlin trilogy. I've heard Bowie in an interview state that, in order to give up their coke habits, Iggy and he went to West Berlin, which he described as the then "heroin capital of the world."User:JCHeverly 21:35, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
