About the album
Released in April 1983, Let's Dance marked Bowie's turn toward the mainstream, co-produced with Chic's Nile Rodgers for a sleek, danceable sound. Recorded in New York, it became his best-selling album, buoyed by the title track and "China Girl," the latter co-written years earlier with Iggy Pop. Stevie Ray Vaughan, then an unknown Texas blues guitarist, played lead guitar, adding a blues edge beneath the polish. It followed 1980's Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps) and turned Bowie into a major superstar.

Vinyl shows light surface marks. Jacket has an upper-left punch hole, corner and edge wear, and light creasing.
Collector Notes: Mobile Fidelity's half-speed mastered pressing of the album that turned David Bowie into an arena headliner — 'Let's Dance' (1983), produced by Nile Rodgers of Chic, with a then-unknown Stevie Ray Vaughan on lead guitar in one of his first major-label appearances before his own solo career took off. The title track, 'Modern Love' and 'China Girl' all came off this one record. The vinyl retains strong gloss, a few very light surface marks. The jacket has a small factory-style promo punch hole at the upper left, along with corner wear, edge wear and light creasing; the inserts shown are included. COMPLETE with MFSL high quality inner sleeves and inner-sleeve cover. ULTRASONIC CLEANED!
