Why didn't you vote for, "Twat"? Is it because your opinions are wrong?

Shame on you, Sonic Youth fans.

But it's David Bowie.
He can do no wrong.

Right, I don't actually like Bowie, but we'll leave our personal feelings about him to one side for second.

MIMES ARE THE SINGLE WORST THING EVER APART FROM BONO. This is the law. I didn't make it, but I do respect it.

If Bowie started doing Poi you'd all laugh his teeth out. Is mime any different? No.

great choices with Ziggy & Beeb already, _tunic_, but yeah, get Aladdin Sane, but first perhaps get Hunky Dory, although Scary Monsters & Low are certainly not ones to sneeze at either.

david bowie is kind of boring. i really like some of the stuff he did though.

He's the greatest arranger (along with his assorted producers & arrangers) in Rock 'n' Roll history except for George Martin.

Kinky Ray/Dave Davies & those lads in Queen aren't shabby either.

Not sure how that lends itself to being "boring."
Maybe because all those cats dig classical & it shows sometimes?

I think this is perfect for a beginner.

& its the LP that made me want to explore music.

Mimes who pretend to be trapped are a good excuse for lynchmobs.

he made great music until he decided to do that collaboration with mick jagger. although it is pretty awesome when he yells "SOUTH AMERICAAAAAAAHHHHGGGHH".

i happen to enjoy a lot of other stuff a lot more. just personal preference i suppose.

I love the Ziggy Stadust album, played it in my car yesterday, I think it may have caused me some speeding tickets ;-)

"Hunky Dory", "Ziggy Stardust", "Aladdin Sane", "Diamond Dogs", "Young Americans", "Station To Station", "Low" and "Heroes" are ALL absolute must haves. If you really like "Ziggy" though, I'd purchase it's rather underrated follow up next, "Aladdin Sane".
