mil_pl 10.17.2008 01:12 PM

[Sandbag] 10.17.2008 01:22 PM

yep.

SuperCreep 10.17.2008 02:00 PM

Station to Station.

atsonicpark 10.17.2008 02:09 PM

the one with white noise in the title. cuz the title is cool.

Dead-Air 10.17.2008 02:19 PM

Overall Low.

mangajunky 10.17.2008 02:20 PM

I probably shouldn't be posting to this one because I love too many of his albums.

The Man Who Sold the World
Aladdin Sane (Time, Cracked Actor, I'm totally in love with the dissonant piano throughout)
Low
Scary Monsters (the album starts out in Japanese and the first song ends with Bowie screaming "SHUT UP" , of course I love it)

Trasher02 10.17.2008 04:31 PM

Ziggy Stardust does it for me. Mainly because of Starman.

gualbert 10.17.2008 04:46 PM

fuck david bowie!

atsonicpark 10.17.2008 07:46 PM

I love the Linguini Incident (aka Shag O Rama). That's probably the best thing he's ever done. Or in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.

Ouch, Lodger and Diamond Dogs after Let's Dance? That's harsh.

Decayed Rhapsody 10.17.2008 11:01 PM

1.Outside and Heathen are severely underrated.

baby bulldog 10.18.2008 01:11 AM

The Man who Sold The World...true heaviosity.

radarmaker 10.18.2008 05:43 AM

Today's top 5:

1. Station to Station
2. Man Who Sold The World
3. Hunky Dory
4. Ziggy
5. Low

lechaoscestmoi 10.18.2008 07:22 AM

i have a friend who is a fan of bowie after the 70's, and says that his 70's period sucked.

Decayed Rhapsody 10.18.2008 11:00 AM

He needs re-education.

ScreamingSchool 10.18.2008 11:07 AM

Hunky Dory most definitely. And that opinion was formed even BEFORE watching The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. That being said, if you havent seen it The Life Aquatic has some very nice treatments of Bowie songs, most of them from Hunky Dory, sung in Portugese by Sau Jorge (sp?)

PAULYBEE2656 10.18.2008 11:15 AM

The Best Of Bowie

I will say that, I do appreciate atari 2600's commitment to reminding people that there is, indeed, a search function on this board, and its really easy to use.

It seems there's no lack of space here.
I recall there was a "recommend me some Bjork" thread some months ago , an now there's another one...No problem really.

atari 2600 10.18.2008 12:11 PM

Since [Sandbag] is new I thought they might like to read in the other threads about what people here think about Bowie, and yeah, in a way I was reminding about the search function.

[Sandbag] 10.18.2008 12:13 PM

nah... i dont think it's a pain in the arse for anyone really... i did the forum search before posting this thread and duh, nothing.

back to bowie, 'Station to Station' is gunna be my next try.
woop

that's why there's an advanced search feature.

atsonicpark 10.18.2008 12:35 PM

It's no big deal really. I did think you were new and wasn't aware of the search function, as a lot of people aren't.
