Station to Station Songwriting Credits by David Bowie

David Bowie's Station to Station, released January 23, 1976 on RCA Records, is the album of the Thin White Duke, Bowie's cocaine-fueled, emotionally detached persona, and one of the most critically acclaimed records of his career, bridging his soul period and the experimental Berlin trilogy that followed. Bowie wrote or co-wrote five of the six tracks, with the sole cover being Dimitri Tiomkin and Ned Washington's 'Wild Is the Wind.' The ten-minute title track opens the album with a slow-building krautrock-influenced introduction before transforming into a funk groove, while 'Golden Years' and 'TVC 15' became top-ten hits on both sides of the Atlantic. Carlos Alomar, Earl Slick, and drummer Dennis Davis, the core band that would carry through the Berlin era, all contribute here. Station to Station reached the top five in both the US and UK and is considered among the most important albums in rock history, showing Bowie's complete compositional control even during the most chaotic period of his personal life.
