David Bowie - Lodger 6.5/10
It doesn't touch the other two "Berlin Trilogy" records.
Hot Club of Cowtown - Wishful Thinking 6.9/10
I love it musically, but the original songs are kinda weak lyrically, which annoys me. I definitly want to check more of their stuff out, but the older records that have less original material on them. They are better musicians and interpreters than songwriters, though I don't particularly care for their cover of Tom Waits' "Long Way Home."
