Great to see some fans here, what discerning tastes you all have.
I love '1.Outside' too Freezehim. To me, that was a return to that bizarre, character-driven mythos in his head which fuelled his greatest music in that hallowed '67-'80 period. When I heard in '94 that Eno would be working with him again, I was over the moon along with a lot of his hardcore fans. 'Outside' and 'Diamond Dogs' tap into the sci-fi vein a lot and they create rich visual landscapes worthy of graphic novels imo, though his 70s stuff is superior by far.
@Spartacus, the 'Serious Moonlight' tour was in 1983, not 1990. That was the 'Sound and Vision' tour.

I'm a huge fan of Bowie! Love the old stuff and new, favorite album is Outside actually, just maybe because it's burned into my generations music, about the time 7 came out, he's on the soundtrack.

and I guess Low would be my 2nd favorite alongside Earthling and Heathen (which was an amazing album as well!)

I've got most of his stuff. Vinyls and CDs. I started collecting it all after seeing Labyrinth. Plus my mother used to have his vinyls in England (squatters broke into the top-room locked for storage and stole them....plus my Action Men ;`( )

Fassbender was saying how he based some of his 'David' on The Man Who Fell To Earth among other things...

saw the "Serious Moonlight" tour Complete with the E.T. hand pointing to G-d at the Old Montreal Forum in 1990 something..am a long time fan of all of the classic Rock & Roll Artists and Bowie was the King Of "Glam" ! My Favorite Bowie Albums are "Station To Station" & "Diamond Dogs", Favorite songs..."Station To Station" by far is #1...then it's "Gene Genie" & then..."Life On Mars", also Love "Blue Jean" which was recorded in Mount Tremblant Quebec about a 20 minutes drive from here in a studio I have been in many times.

Oh how I love David Bowie, I enjoy listening to his music quite a lot, my favorite album of his being [i]Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars[/i], I also fell in love with his performance in [i]Labyrinth[/i], and I find him a truly great musician and a talented singer.
