I also keep forgetting he's dead and am then reminded again because there's a painting of him in my town centre. Sad stuff.

That's a great painting. The one in my city, not so much... there was even a news article about it.

haha yeah I saw that, I was in tears at the time over all the Pat Sharp stuff. It really does look like Pat Sharp. Feel a bit for the guy who painted it.

I haven't gone to see the one I posted, I keep meaning to. Not even sure if it's still there any more.

It seems pretty much everyone's votes are in, so how about we kick off the next round.
Low is gone.

Hunky Dory (1971)
The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972)
Blackstar (2016)


It really pains me to do this, but I'm voting off Blackstar. It's an amazing album and it stirs incredibly strong emotions inside me, but overall the songs are a just little bit weaker than the ones on Ziggy and Hunky Dory.

I'm gonna throw a tantrum if I don't get my way this round.

Record it and put it on your next album.

I think Ziggy will get off this time. Blackstar's my vote. The remaining three are grand albums, but Blackstar's the worst of the three.
