It is to played from start to finish.
Close your eyes.
Hear the entertainment mogul/Duke flee Berlin for North Africa. Meet his would be Assassin. Meet the Duke in his new North African career. Hear the Duke look back on his life. Hear the Assassin kill the Duke for “Red Money”. See the crime scene on the Album cover art. Lodger is Bowie’s “Casablanca’.
With the “Duke” dead, Bowie moves to Scary Monsters, where he performs without character for the first time since “Man of Music” in 1969.

I was logging my vinyl on discogs and found i have a mystery: my Copy of Lodger has the serial number AYL1-4234 on both the sleeve and etched into the vinyl. That’s the 1981/2nd pressing. The sleeve also says “previously released as AQL1-3254.” That is the number for the first pressing, which was pressed in 1979.

Here’s the mystery: the only date printed on the vinyl is 1979. There is no date printed on sleeve. All evidence points towards this being a misprint but i can’t find any information on it. Does anyone know anything about this or how i can find out more?

Thank you! I’ve still got many more song features to write, and the history section is barely there, but over time I’ll be growing the site into hopefully something good. Glad you like it 🙂

Incredible! What’s more important than your album? It still came out great but one wonders if it would have sold more.
Thank you Joe for this site. I’ve read every word, went back to beginning and started again. I’ve read many books about Bowie and still learned so much more I didn’t know from your pages. Cheers!
