6. DEFINITELY "Low"
Yup...

My first Bowie album (bought it as a cut out in the late 70's for 99 cents), and the album that expanded my horizons more than any other at the time (I was 16 when I bought it, and it was a far cry from "Boston", Steve Miller & the other corporate rock of the time (not to mention completely different than punk too...).

Anyways, I STILL love "Low" after all these years...

2. The Man Who Sold the World
Nah, "Ziggy" wins by a nose. I just like to be contrarian.

4. I've Always Been Partial to Christiane F
Not an all-original album, but a repackaging of various TWD era stuff for a movie-soundtrack. Love the half-German version of "Heroes."

Bowie, SRV, Nile Rodgers. What a combo.

12. I like Diamond Dogs better
by just a little bit. "When it's good, it's really good, and when it's bad I go to pieces." Plus the ever-circling skeletal family. How can you top that?

13. It is impossible to choose
Is it Space Oddity, Diamond Dogs, The Man Who Sold The World, Low, Heroes? Sorry... nope... just can't choose.
