BOWIE's BEST ALBUMS

DAVID BOWIE's BLACKSTAR is currently number 1 album on the charts. But let's face the facts, shall we? It's mediocre at best. The man had to quite literally DROP DEAD to get you to go out and buy it. 
With all due respect from someone who loves DAVID BOWIE's music, quite frankly his later works just did not measure up to the albums I'm about to lay on you. 
And yes before the scathing comments of "you aren't even good enough to polish BOWIE'S shoes" etc. I will be the first to admit that I am just a simple man who gapes in awe at the masterful works of DAVID ROBERT JONES aka DAVID BOWIE.
But all you Bowie come lately fans really are doing yourselves a disservice if you think ANY of his latest stuff can even come close to the following:

  SPACE ODDITY 1969

  THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD

HUNKY DORY

 ALADDIN SANE

 THE RISE AND FALL OF ZIGGY STARDUST

 DIAMOND DOGS


 HEROES 1977

Those are the core of his best works. After you've listened to every one of them, you'll see what I meant.
Also listen to  STATION TO STATION

LOW, 

LODGER, 

LET'S DANCE 

TONIGHT 

and SOME of his later albums.
"So softly a SUPER GOD dies" - The Supermen

will smith's misguided impression of Chivalry

Sticks and stones  May break my bones  but names will never hurt me. "Jada, I love ya, GI JANE2 can't wait to see ya, aright?"...
