tongue_tied_danny Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Too many to choose from but here's a few from the top of my head. Rebel Rebel Moonage Daydream Better Hang on to Yourself Ashes to Ashes My favourite Bowie stuff though is from the Berlin trilogy, particularly the Low album. An absolute classic. I also love the Iggy Pop albums that he worked on in that period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 1st two Berlin albums are excellent, some year he had in 77 producing Iggy Pop as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyAnchor Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 I heard Drive in Saturday the other day and realized how good it was, never really liked it much before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 He's my favourite musician of all time, an icon. Young Americans is my jukebox go to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never listened to Blackstar and I'll admit I'm fairly ignorant of his newer stuff. I will check it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Brilliant Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Sound & Vision. Modern Love has started sounding extra good somehow too. I started getting into him around Hours just as if he was any 'current' artist and only went to the classics later. Afraid of Americans is good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 What's everybody's favourite cover of a Bowie track? Philip Glass' version of Warszawa is mine... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenHibee Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Cat People. Simply because when you cross that song with this scene, you have perfection (3:05 in particular)! Really gives you a feel for the intensity of Shoshanna's desire to avenge her murdered family. Melanie Laurent is also an absolute babe.

Dan Steele Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Station to Station is a stunning album as is Heroes. Cover version of Heroes by Nicole Atkins (with Postmodern Jukebox) is just brilliant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Simply put, I love David Bowie. I love his early stuff, I love his late stuff, I love the stuff in the middle. There has never been, and there never will be, a song as good as Life On Mars?. I was mesmerised by the song from the first time that I heard it on the radio in 1973. On going back through his albums after his death, I was surprised by how good Heathen was as I had rather skipped over it when it first came out, and it’s now one of my favourite albums. These are obviously only my personal opinions of course, but I’m right. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
