Definitely not a fa,n of Glitter Rock (which is much more about songs than albums), but.... ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

can't say I like anything here very much and a good number I'm therefore unfamiliar with... I'll hold my nose and go for Roxy Music... ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

Be-bop deluxe by a Yorkshire mile . Hunky Dory is my favourite Bowie lp (but i'm not a massive fan generally). Sparks 'Propaganda' has good songs on it and i remember 'Desolation Boulevard' as one of Sweet's better albums but again, not a big fan. ------------- |

^^ ought to give B-bD another go some time and try and see what others do... always felt they were a bit too bubble-gum for my tastes, but I might yet be surprised... otherwise, this Poll really is a wasteland for me.. ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

Got my vote too. Love David Bowie and I would say that that was my favourite Bowie album at least until Blackstar came out. Well, I’ve had a few Bowie favourites over the years but Hunky Dory has been a very special album to me. |

Hunky Dory is definitely among my favorites of his. Legendary artist. Blackstar is glorious.

Bowie. They told me to bark into the washing machine, and I politely obliged. ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

Do, Modern music is one of the most sophisticated musically, along with Futurama and Live in the Air Age is a great live album. I like all Be-bop deluxe but appreciate its not for everyone.. many start with Sunburst Finish which i find is let down by its production and a couple of duff songs.  this poll is funny (no offence Paul), there's a handful of great Art-pop-mildly prog albums floating in a sea of dross.. i mean, Rubettes, Mud, Bay city rollers, David Essex, Alvin Stardust, Glitter band.. phew and Yuk.. yes i do remember what it was like to be a pre-teen in early 70's UK ------------- |

No offence taken. There's plenty more dross still to come, much of which I bought back in the 1970's.

I'll have more dross on its way later today with the fifth poll in the series, which will hopefully include a few glittery spandex delights worth voting for.
