Love the Bowie, but wouldn't vote as I haven't heard Burn. Maybe I'll check it out at some time.

Maybe because I listen to more obscure music. ;)

I can't say for sure I've never heard it, and listening to the title track I recognised it immediately. Radio maybe? I know earlier albums (especially like the pre In Rock ones). If I have listened to it, it may be over 40 years ago and my memory is not what it was even a few years ago. I will give it a go and see if it brings back memories. I think my memory for having heard music is still good at least, even if it has been 40 years.

Diamond Dogs by a long measure, one of my favorite Bowie albums. Burn has a great title song but the rest of the album is forgettable.

Listened to enough, I'm mistaken, I have heard it. My friend's brother had it in his collection and played it. And that would have been in about 1982. Takes a little jogging but I get there in the end. He had plenty of Purple. Good album but will vote Diamond Dogs.

Haven't listened to either of these albums in a very long time. My problem with most Deep Purple albums is that they're too uneven, whereas Bowie's albums are often too dense... Will give them a listen again before voting.

Deep Purple, no question, though Bowie is also excellent.

'Dogs burn Burn. Coverdale was a big let-down after Gillan.

Ooo, now that's an interesting comparison.

Burn is regarded as a classic; the one great DP album post 'Machine Head'
Diamond Dogs is regarded as a disappointment: the last dregs of DB's dystopian / glam period.

I prefer Diamond Dogs.  Most underrated Bowie album of the 70's.
