edna Posted October 9, 2009 Report Share Posted October 9, 2009 I had the album decades ago and I loved/love it... A friend of mine stole it from me. She's still one of my best friends I love "Cygnett Comittee" (sp?)... I love the other songs too but Cygnett is a must in my soundtrack. It would be a good Christmas present...

RockyRaccoon Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I still think no album of his will ever match Hunky Dory and Low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJonSurfer Posted October 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I'm just happy seeing a 14 year old and an 18 year old digging Space Oddity, Low and Hunky Dory. I'm a fan of Aladdin Sane and Pin-Ups (an album of Bowie doing cover songs from the British Invasion 1973.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edna Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Ziggy Stardust and Aladin Sane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyRaccoon Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Then again there is The Man Who Sold The World, Lodger, and Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps). But those combined with Low, Hunky Dory, and Ziggy Stardust are the best Bowie albums to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viaene Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 (edited) I love bowie in general My dad has almost his entire discography on vinyl and I listen to it frequently The opening song on mom and dad's wedding was from Bowie too. (at least that's what they told me, I wasn't there yet ) Edited October 10, 2009 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
