This stated off slowly & I wasn't really feeling it, then something happened & it started to pull me in. Lady Stardust is particularly good.

jammed this again for the first time since i dunno when... Some straight up classics in this, can't argue with that, but he went on to make much better stuff than this.



Also, man i hate the production on this, the drums specially. Maybe it's the remastered version's issue? it's awful.

The remasters of this kinda pale in comparison to the original mix, although the 2012 mix is fine. The 2003 mix is probably the worst, although a point of interest due to some differences in some songs.

the .1 is because It Ain't Easy is obviously the weakest song on an otherwise flawless album

'but he went on to make much better stuff than this'



Encouraging, I prefer Low so far although I do like this. Only other one I've dipped into is Hunky Dory & can't say I like it, seems surprisingly throwaway to me.

Station to Station, Low, Heroes, and possibly Aladdin Sane are all better than this, IMO.

Aladdin Sane has some insane piano & interesting material. However, some of the straight up rockers are a little dull. Station to Station seems fairly promising. Hunky Dory is the least appealing so far.



Apologies in advance for using this thread as my on-going Bowie diary.

I'm not confident enough to rate of any of them yet, let alone make a list, haha.

Lady Stardust, Ziggy & Rock n Roll are so good, I'm not completely sold on everything yet but it's growing on me.
