One thing to remember is that music taste is quite subjective. The technical abilities of a musician does not dictate how much an individual will like it. Case in point, Bowie's original version of Heroes has one of the finest guitarists to ever grace God's green Earth playing on it: the almighty Robert Fripp. And the rest of the band is pretty good, too. While the Wallflowers, while good, are fairly mediocre musicians (I dig them too, they get the job done), however you you like the Wallflowers version better. Fine. Just a matter of taste. In the end, Bowie's a very good songwriter and a pretty darn competent musician.
