I'm so into Bowie at the moment. I'm such a bandwagon jumping cunt.

Still think the new album is a cracker.
Been spending a lot of time with Low / Heroes / Lodger this week. I've never spent too much time with either of them but I was a fool to wait so long. There's some pretty powerful stuff going on across all 3 records.

Aladdin Sane, Hunky Dory & Ziggy Stardust are ones which are instantly likeable for people starting with Bowie.

Fucking addicted to Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps), what a record. I think that and lodger are my two favourites, I didn't even like Lodger the first few times I heard it. So fucking obsessed with Bowie at the moment  WE ARE THE GOON SQUAD AND WE'RE COMING TO TOWN BEEP BEEP |

Low is his best record.
Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) is the choice of a narc!

actually yeah Low is up there too, the cunt has too many good albums. I've now exhausted his classic period, it's time for me to move on to LET'S DANCE. I've heard a few later period records in the past but I can't say I know any of them inside out so looking forward to digging deeper. what are his best records from Let's Dance onwards? Also been listening to a lot of 80s Neil Young, it hasn't been a pleasant experience |

FOR NOW, only going up to 1980 & cos I forgot about Low when I made my post 2 minutes ago GOLD1. Low 2. Lodger 3. Scary Monsters (and super creeps) 4. Heroes 5. Aladdin Sane SILVER6. Station To Station 7. Hunky Dory 8. The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars 9. Diamond Dogs (sorry brian) BRONZE 10: The Man Who Sold the World 11: Space Oddity Then the three I'm not arsed about: Pin-ups is pretty good for what it is though I'd rather just listen to the originals. Young Americans, The whole white-boy soul thing doesn't cut it for me, I do like a couple of tunes though & the debut "David Bowie" is a bit shit but I forgive him. |

The very first post I made on this (incarnation) of the forum was that Low is the greatest album of all time.
LOOKS LIKE YOU CAUGHT UP

I'll change the order again tomorrow. Look forward to a similar list where you rank the many masterpieces of Paul Weller's career  |

Pretty much agree with Karl Mahoney on his rankings there; spot on.
I've had to force myself to stop listening to Bowie for a week or so because it was getting beyond ridiculous. I was taking "shit" breaks at work to sit in the cubicle and listen to a tune or 2.
