I guess it'd be Scary Monsters, then Aladdin Sane, then Hunky Dory. I still don't have Low though.
Not sure if I'm gonna see him in October, cause the tickets are at a ridiculously high price and it's in a 20000-people shitty venue. I might go anyway, I'll see.

Don't listen to much bowie.......but The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars has great tunes such as "Five Years" and "Suffragette City."
By the way, does anyone like David Live? I dislike the album and I know it got pretty bad reviews.

| I've been a huge fan of Scary Monsters, but also like Diamond Dogs, Ziggy, and I do say I love all the hits... |

| I said in a different thread Space Oddity which is kind of obscure, I like it but I'll have to go with good old hunky dory. Space Oddity is too much like Bowie's pre ziggy folky stuff which is not quite as rockin. |

I think 'Scary Monsters' is probably my favourite with 'Low' and 'Heroes' and 'Lodger' coming in closely behind (I think that 'It's No Game Part 1' is FANTASTIC!!!!)
I thought both Earthling and Heathen were really good albums...though 'Hours' was fairly weak.
I've just seen the front cover of his forthcoming album 'Reality'...oh dear, I'm not impressed.
I saw him in Glasgow for the Earthling tour - the guy rocked! |

| Icecream, David Live is fantastic!! It takes awhile to get used to, but it was one of my favourites for years...Obviously it won't appeal so much if you're not a fan of Diamond Dogs. |

diamond dogs is probably one of my least fave bowie albums from the 70s... although sweet thing and we are the dead are fantastic. anyone a big fan of space oddity? letter to hermione is great stuff as well.
and speaking of bowie - just back from france and saw that brilliant vittel commercial with bowie in it. its amazing!

Space Oddity is, i believe, one of the greatest songs of all time. |

i think its great the way bowie wrote later songs by cutting up paper with words to re-use 'major tom' on ashes to ashes.
anyone going to see the great man in november/december? i am and i cant wait!

well, both space oddity the album and the song are great. i love hermione and - of course - the beautiful cygnet com.
as for the cutting of paper - its scary monsters (lyrics to space oddity were re-used to write scary monsters). cheers
