By 1974, David Bowie had formally dissolved his core backing band from the previous few albums, tried and failed to get a musical adaptation of George Orwell’s 1984 off the ground and ultimately reunited with producer Tony Visconti after a couple of years away. All that and more gets reflected in Diamond Dogs, a loose future dystopia concept album with standouts like the snarling title track, the melodramatic “Big Brother,” the burning build of “Candidate” and especially his seeming kiss-off to the glam days, the strutting “Rebel Rebel.”
