True Or False! David Bowie's "The Man Who Sold The World" Is By Far His Greatest Record!

[RUSHHEAD666]

Again, I tried to find a thread on here about "The Man Who Sold The World" but I have failed.

I remember Duck writing on here that this album was METAL.

Hence I agreed.

This album is by far David Bowie's greatest album of all time!!!!!

Nothing comes close! JMO!!!

 

So what is "The Width Of A Circle" anyway?

 

METAL RULES!

 

3.14

[Babycat]

Yours sincerely,

I've been listening to this one a lot lately. I think it's my favorite too.

[Union 5-3992]

Young Americans is pretty tight too

[Turbine Freight]

Awesome record. The beginning of the real Bowie.

 

THE SUPERMEN!

Is there an Aladdin Rules option? That and Heroes are his best.

Yeah, Aladdin Sane is underrated. Good call!

[RUSHHEAD666]

Ziggy for me. I saw the Spiders tour not knowing who David Bowie was. I was floored.

You lucky son of a gun!

[Rick N. Backer]

I'd have to say Ziggy is his most complete album Earl.

[RUSHHEAD666]

I agree buddy! It is more complete but for my ear holes it's "The Man Who Sold The World!"

 

"The Width Of A Circle" says it all!!

THE WIDTH OF A CIRCLE

I voted for TMWSTW, but only because of how limited the choices this poll are. TMWSTW is from 1970 and Ziggy Stardust was 1972-73. He's had a 40 year career since then and his best work arguably came in the mid-late 70s (see everything from Diamond Dogs through Scary Monsters).

[RUSHHEAD666]

Nothing touches early Seventies Bowie!

 

Scary Monsters isn't very scary at all.

It's boring.

Woah steady on there brother!

 

Scary Monsters is awesome!

 

All Bowie from Space Oddity to Scary Monsters is a MUST for any music fan! (Pin Ups excluded).

Haha! Yep! The only Eighties Bowie album I love is "Let's Dance!

 

Stevie Ray Vaughan baby!!

 

 

You're my China Girl.................

[RUSHHEAD666]

Shhhhhh............ Just you shut your mouth....

[Justin Case]

I went to an event where Nile Rogers discussed the making of Let's Dance. What awesome stories!!

 

Bowie was trying hard to get sober during that time,, but suggested covering Iggy's China Girl. To Nile, that song was always about drugs...speedballs to be specific...heroin (China) and cocaine (Girl)..

 

Also...when Bowie recruited him, Nile thought he'd be making Heroes part 2, but Bowie wanted to make a pop album. They both kinda got their way. Bowie got his pop album, full of hits, on side one and Nile got his weird and artsy stuff out on side 2..
