Evan Collins
I've never actually listened to Black Tie White Noise. I've heard Jump They Say, so I guess that covers that.
Nathaniel Lee
Bro,. You are missing out. Listen to it when you get the chance. It is great
Memory of a Free Festival Man Who Sold the World Life on Mars-Song for Bob Dylan Moonage Daydream Watch that Man Here Comes the Night-I Can't Explain-Where Have All the Good Times Gone Diamond Dogs-Rebel Rebel Young Americans-Fame Literally every song on Station to Station is great I love the entire first half of "Heroes" Speed of Life, Sound and Vision Look Back in Anger I love the entirety of Scary Monsters Cat People I Know It's Gonna Happen Dead Man Walking-I'm Afraid of Americans Thursday's Child Sunday-Afraid-Gemini Spacecraft-5:15 Pablo Picasso-Fall Dog Bombs the Moon-Reality-Bring Me the Disco King Literally all of the Last Day is good Literally all of Blackstar is good
These are all ones I think are the best and are just out of the albums I have of his, I don't have them all.

Actually, can we include The Gouster on lists now?
Hunter Sullivan
This is the best I can do. I ain't 21 yet.
You're skipping a lot of stuff. I don't like it.
Carter Brooks
Well half of it is just a repeat of Young Americans
And if you have the deluxe of Y.A. there's no point in including the gouster.
But you can if you want.
Cooper Lee
Cheers m8.
Hunter Collins
I love Earthling, couldn't get into Outside, haven't heard the others though (that includes other 80s and 00s stuff)
Sebastian Martinez
Tonight. Black Tie. Heathen. I highly rec. you listen to those albums.
Evan Bell
Yeah, Black Tie is good and Heathen is absolutely essential. Honestly I would put Reality in there as necessary as well not to mention his last two albums.
Landon Collins
i have never heard bowie outside of white wedding. which album do i start with?
Matthew Johnson
Name your favorite genre and I'll give you an album recommendation based on that.

Start with a compilation. Probably Nothing Has Changed since it's the most complete.

Hunter Johnson
Queen Bitch was made with Lou Reed in mind, I'm not a fan of his voice at all and Bowie tried imitating it pretty hard on that. Space Oddity's just got that 60's stereo mixing problem, lots of hard panning. It aggravates me and ruins songs for me. It did it for that song, which I'd otherwise enjoy.
Rebel Rebel's alright though. Diamond Dogs didn't wow me too hard, that's just my least favourite of the album.
Matthew Hernandez
>This list With minor deviation, goddamn we'd be friends. Almost identical to what mine would be.
>Fascination Only other time I've heard a good word for it, and it's honestly one of my favorite songs of all time. Great taste m8, r8 8/8.

I only know Blackstar which I think is amazing and Hunky Dory which I don't like. Have you got any Bowie recommendations?
Joseph Taylor
Everything
Lucas Rogers
But Hunky Dory isn't good
Nicholas Lopez
Great picks senpai
Robert Torres
Op here. Surprised the thread is still alive.
Pretty good. Great. Other than shining star pretty great list.

Pretty good.
Adrian Morales
Opinion is objectively wrong
Blake Russell
Whew, not a single mention of Letter to Hermione? One of his most underrated tracks.
Colton Scott
Lets see your top list, friend.
Jordan Perry
I didn't realize it was a "pick one song from each album" thing. While I consider myself a Bowie fan, I haven't actually heard all of his albums. Whenever I listen to him, I usually end up going back to my favorite albums. It's not that surprising then, but I still think it's a very underrated track.
Zachary White
That's cool. Which albums of his have you listened to?
Jonathan Gonzalez
There are some albums I've heard once or twice, but these are the ones I'm most familiar with/keep going back to: Space Oddity The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars Diamond Dogs Low The Next Day
I'm also familiar with most of the hit singles, but I keep going back to these albums. Blackstar didn't really grab me when I first listened to it, but I heard it before his death. So if you have any recommendations for similar stuff, please let me know. I haven't heard much of his stuff released between 79-03.
Noah Gutierrez
Well if you're interested in recs here are a select few of my favorites: Aladdin Sane Lodger Tonight Black Tie White Noise Earthling
Daniel Nguyen
Thanks, I'll put them next on the list. I've definitely heard Aladdin Sane before, but I'm not so sure about the others.
Jaxson Miller
Well those are just some personal favorites. If you want some stuff other Bowie fans would call the best, go with Hunky Dory and Station to Station. Those are considered the more "high quality" ones.
Brayden Watson
>Space Oddity >Sweet Thing/Candidate >Heroes >Win >Stay Definitely, absolutely correct in my eyes. Haven't listened to enough his other albums to judge. Would swap Sound and Vision with Subterraneans though.
Making such a list is much harder with VU.
Kevin Reyes
Oops, referring to
Nathaniel Barnes
You really need to get on Scary Monsters. Its Bowies best album in my opinion
Austin Flores
From what I've listened too: Memory of a Free Festival All The Mad Men Quicksand Moonage Daydream Time Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing Can You Hear Me Stay, but STS is GOAT Breaking Glass ''Heroes''/Moss Garden DJ Teenage Wildlife Modern Love Blue Jean Magic Dance Strangers When We Meet I'm Afraid Of Americans Something In The Air (American Psycho mix) Sunday Bring Me The Disco King Love Is Lost (Hello Steve Rich mix) I Can't Give Everything Away

Second side of low and Heroes should be pretty gud. Also try "All Saints" which is a compilation album of all of Bowies ambient/instrumental tracks.
