"Divine Symmetry is packed out with radio sessions and alternative mixes that are sometimes intriguing and sometimes make you wonder how many versions of David Bowie singing Jacques Brel's Amsterdam a person needs to hear. What emerges is a talented writer grasping uncertainly for a new direction, wildly throwing ideas against the wall and shaping an album out of the ones that stuck".

"KLASSIKEREN: Bowies første helstøbte hovedværk grundigt belyst ... Smukt bokssæt dokumenterer detaljeret forvandlingen fra David Jones til Ziggy Stardust ... Her er det perioden op til udgivelsen af Hunky Dory i december 1971, som dokumenteres grundigt - med masser af demoer, radiosessions og liveoptagelser, hvoraf langt hovedparten aldrig er hørt før ... en guldgrube for fans".

"The end result is historically significant but also a pleasure: for anybody who has wanted to live within the world of Hunky Dory, this offers an excellent place to do just that".

"Best New Reissue" - "The new Hunky Dory-era box set offers a tantalizing peek behind the curtain of Bowie's theatrical persona during arguably the most pivotal moment in his life and career".
