Not bad. I believe Stevie Ray Vaughn played in a lot of those. That in itself is worth the cost.

Stevie backed up Bowie? That's rather surprising; their musical styles are/were so radically different that it doesn't seem like a logical match.

I know that Stevie played "Let's Dance" and yeah, I couldn't believe it either. There is nothing about that song and Stevie's style that are anything in common. But there it is!:
David Bowie

" A popular Austin act, Vaughan soon attracted the attention of musicians David Bowie and Jackson Browne. Both Browne and Bowie first caught Vaughan at the 1982 Montreux Jazz Festival, where some members of the audience booed the band, because they disliked Double Trouble's hard blues sound. Nonetheless, the crowd response was quite different when they were invited to headline "Blues Night" at the festival again in 1985.
In November, 1982, Vaughan recorded in Jackson Browne's studio in downtown Los Angeles. The recordings were brought to the attention of A&R man, John Hammond and became Texas Flood. Later, Bowie then featured Vaughan on his 1983 album Let's Dance.[4] Vaughan was even asked to go on tour with Bowie, but declined so he could continue to play with Double Trouble."
I guess it was just "Lets Dance".. But I heard he did more than that.
But once you hear the song, you can tell that is stevie.

"Let's Dance" is an album, not just a song. Vaughan plays a couple of solos on the album.
(BTW, that and "Never Let Me Down", which followed it, are his only blatantly commercial albums. He desperately needed money at that point.)

In listening to China Girl I was amazed to hear what reminded me of Tim Curry's performance as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in the film, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show."
A kind of slurry, sleazy, sinister seductiveness in their singing style.
Has anyone else ever noticed a similarity between the two?

"China Girl" was co-written with Iggy Pop for one of Iggy's albums.
Might that explain?

About the same difference as how many Bowie albums you have in your collection, I reckon.

Indeed. Since they didn't mention any other songs in that article other than Lets Dance however, I was confused because I had thought he played in more.
Vaughan plays a couple of solos on the album.
Ah see, the article never says that. And that is what I was looking for. 
(BTW, that and "Never Let Me Down", which followed it, are his only blatantly commercial albums. He desperately needed money at that point.)
The only song I couldn't stand from that area was "Modern Love"
I mean come on..

I say you post a thread in the feeback section complaining. And do it in a passive aggressive way.

besson1a is kind of the black sheep of the family. We don't talk very much. All I remember was that he used to get high off of paint fumes a lot and liked to have sex with vegetables.

While its audience might take The Rocky Horror Picture Show as an endorsement of polysexual liberation, with an enthusiastic if joky depiction of transvestism and homosexuality, the theme has mainly been included to make jokes at the expense of Alice Cooper and David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust phase.
