for all those who say that iggy version is better then gom hear iggy´s version and stop saying it.bowie is bowie and in my opinion much better than iggy
Surely I can't be alone in thinking this is at least the equal of Sister Midnight? The production has a buzzing, chugging, sinister quality that isn't quite there in the Iggy Pop version, and Bowie really sells a sense of nervous panic in the vocals too. Sister Midnight is a great track, but I definitely prefer Red Money.
This was recorded in Berlin during Bowies "Low" period. The sessions were a collaboration between Bowie, Iggy and Brian Eno and marked the start of Enos ascent as a producer. Apparently boMidnight and Red Money were recorded as alternatives personally I prefer this one.
@singbluesier All of 'Lodger' was recorded and produced in Switzerland and New York. 'Low' which was recorded in France, 'Heroes' (Berlin) and 'Lodger' were all produced by Tony Visconti.
Just read an Iggy profile on wikipedia, it said that this song was indeed SIster Midnight, co-written by Bowie and Iggy, so Bowie revamped lyrics and put it on Lodger.....as Red Money!! lol.......I remember reading same thing with Pearl Jam and Soundgarden....Eddie Vedder wrote "Footsteps" , gave it to Chris Cornell, and the music ended up as "Times of Trouble" on the Temple of the Dog album...Just interesting what different musicians do with the same song! :)
project cancelled... tumbling central... Good bye Eno

The Idiot was arguably a Bowie project as much as it was an Iggy one. This is good but I think Sister midnight is better.

Callin' Sister Midnight! Around '79 Bowie began to lose his inspiration.

Decent song but doesn't compare with the intensity of Sister Midnight.
