Prefer Burn. It's not 1st division DP but DD is Bowies is one one of the two worst album's of the 70s for me.

It has to be Diamond Dogs. Maybe not one of my favourite Bowie albums, but still great. My favourite part is probably the "Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing" suite. Burn is a good album, especially the title track. However, I am not the biggest fan of David Coverdale, and the classic Mark II lineup still stands as my main preference.

When it comes to 70s Bowie I prefer it to Pin Ups and Young Americans, but that's it. The others are all so strong for me that this is hardly damning it. |

Neither...? Voted Bowie because I don't really care for any Purple past Machine Head.

Cristi's question put this more in mind. I should have asked before, but what is the other worst album you're thinking of? I'm not sure if you meant that it's one of the two worst Bowie albums of the 70s for you or one of the two worst albums of the 70s period (all albums you know included by anyone and everyone) for you. It reads like the latter to me, but I'm unsure of intent. Just curious. Edited by Logan - May 27 2021 at 12:23 |

What's the other one? The only two Bowie studio albums of the 70's I wouldn't bother with are 'Young Americans' and 'Pinups'. The former because I just don't like that style, the latter because it's just not very good.

Automatically thought of Pinups when I read the comment.

‘This ain’t rock n roll
This is genocide!’ Then again I vastly prefer Bowie to Purple. My fave is The Sweet Thing suite like my fellow Dane Anders mentioned. Love the whole feel of that suite...and well the overall gist and lyrical matters is some of the best I’ve heard inspired by 1984. |

Hardest choices for me both albums are favourites but went with 'Diamond Dogs' by David Bowie
