In August 1983, David Bowie was riding high on the waves of his burgeoning fame, having just released his album 'Let’s Dance' a few months prior. This particular concert in Edmonton, part of the Serious Moonlight Tour, showcased hits from that album, including the iconic title track, which marked a significant shift towards a more mainstream sound. It's fascinating to note that 'Let’s Dance' was Bowie’s most commercially successful album, featuring collaborations with Nile Rodgers that infused a fresh pop sensibility into his edgy glam rock roots.
