Re-recorded Rebel Rebel Out Now

You’re a juvenile success…

The soundtrack CD for the new Charlie’s Angels film, Full Throttle, that we’ve already mentioned several times, (the last time being: 05/28/03 NEWS: RE-RECORDED REBEL REBEL RELEASE DATE) was released on Monday here in the UK, and yesterday in the US.

It seems by some of the correspondence on the MBs that many of you are enjoying this re-recording of David Bowie’s Rebel Rebel, from the soundtrack, just as much as I am. In fact, in a straw poll* I conducted this morning, 100 per cent of those asked thought that not only is the soundtrack worth buying for Rebel Rebel alone, but indeed, 100 per cent of those asked also thought that Rebel Rebel was the best track on the album by a long stretch.

Those of you that have heard this new Tony Visconti-produced Rebel Rebel, have obviously noticed that it uses the same arrangement as the version that David played live last year… albeit truncated to a teasing 3:10 seconds, stopping just when you’re expecting it to crash in to another chorus and fade. But that’s DB for you, it would be foolish to expect the expected from our man.

* Admittedly, it was a poll of just one person, me in fact, but I was unanimous in my verdict!
