I always thought of Diamond Dogs as the transition from Ziggy Stardust (Rebel, Rebel, Sweet Thing) to the white soul Thin White Duke Era (1984, Rock n Roll With Me). Obviously, I'm more partial to the Ziggyesque tracks but, for the most part, Bowie is at his experimental best. Favorite songs are the title track, Sweet Thing/Candidate, and Big Brother/March of the Ever Circling Skeletal Family. It is a slight step down from the previous three albums, but Diamond Dogs still rates as a classic for me.
