At the point in time when David Bowie recorded Station to Station it's easy to see he was in a pretty dark place. The recording happened during all night sessions in the studio when Bowie was living a somewhat vampiric existence and eating a ridiculously small amount of food daily.
Somehow, he made it through the hazy experience in 1976 in a Los Angeles studio with a rather blank recollection of the entire process. Looking back, it is easy to see that Bowie was suffering from pretty severe cocaine psychosis, making Station to Station potentially one of the darkest albums ever recorded. Bowie may not be able to remember, but we'll never forget the iconic masterpiece that stemmed from his delirium. (God, we already miss him.)
