Robert Fripp joins Bowie and Eno for the second album in the "Berlin Trilogy."
I gave this one a 3/5. Not quite as good as "Low" for me. A couple of songs ("Blackout" and "The Secret Life of Arabia") seem rather weak among the rest of the tracks on the album and "Sons of the Silent Age" (one of my favorite songs on the album) sounds like it might be a leftover song from the "Aladdin Sane" era.
I agree with Fluff that the last track ("The Secret Life of Arabia") should've been left off. It just sounds like an out-of-place disco song here.
