Bowie fully realized. From this album on he did nothing but gold.
*cough* 80s *cough*

and the 90's. And the 00's.

I might change my opinion when we finally get there, but Hours? zzzzzzzzzzz

Some of his 70s work as well.

Just had to google when "Hours" was from. 1999, it turns out. So Bowie's 90's clearly weren't perfect.

I gave it a 5 on this poll. Bowie reaches his peak and Mick Ronson is unleashed.
The album that made David Bowie a rock & roll star.

My previous comments from the other thread on this album...

Nothing wrong with his cover of "It Ain't Easy" by Ron Davies, I just prefer the original version and I think the Ziggy Stardust album would be slightly more cohesive without it.

Yeah, apart from the fantastic Outside his 90s albums can be easily skipped without missing much

He kept adapting and evolving. Loved pretty much all of it.

INNOVATION.

(that MTV video he did with Jagger being a major exception)

I'm actually looking forward to this thread getting to the 90's. I'm curious about what I'll think about all of those albums - even the ones I've heard before.

I remember liking some songs off Outside for sure. I wonder what I'd think of that and Hours now.

Outside is up there with his best.
Earthling isn't bad either, but not that exciting.
