'Pallas Athena' illustrates best the overall theme suggested by the album's title - what the press release calls 'the black and white sides of one's thinking': taut funk underscored with a bleak Heroesque wash of strings and razored by horn solos from both Bowies.The album opens with 'The Wedding', a carillon of bells leading into a sluggish rhythm over which Bowie's sax adds vaguely Arabic tints; it reappears later in a vocal version that follows Hello] magazine and Brian Eno in trying to elevate his wedding to a significant modern event.
