What is it with the current trend of compiling anything and everything that Bowie covered and labelling it as a Pin-Ups sequel – I just don’t get it!

The ethos of the Pin-Ups album was to collect together songs from the 60s that Bowie loved with the final album selection narrowed down to UK only bands primarily from the London scene.  Much of the stuff now being bundled together as Pin-Ups 2, 3 & 4 simply doesn’t fit with the original concept.

In my view tracks that could be justified would include: Let’s Spend The Night Together, It Ain’t Easy, Pictures Of Lily, I Feel Free, Waterloo Sunset and (although it’s one of my least favourite Bowie covers) Across The Universe.

I think that there is also a case for including tracks like I Got You Babe, White Light/White Heat, Waiting For The Man, Round And Round and God Only Knows (although that is probably my least favourite Bowie cover ever).

Perhaps I’m just a grumpy old man who shouldn’t be getting so exercised over something like this.  What do others think?
