Of course, this is a very good album and I practically wore the grooves out when I first got this. I didn't know the instrumentals were originally for the Man Who Fell To Earth so that explains some things. It was the instrumentals that brought the album down a little for me. It did make the album a bit inconsistent. But the best tracks rate right up there with the Ziggy period. Favorite songs are What in the World and Sound and Vision (yeah, the hits; so sue me)

8/10 (The Word has spoken )
I think only Subterraneans was for the film. Not all of the instrumentals were.

I don't think the album is inconsistent either, side 2 is very different to side 1 but that doesn't make it inconsistent.
