David Bowie
I think that seeing David Bowie singing Starman on Top of the Pops is one of my earliest musical memories and was certainly the first time I thought that music could be transgressive and thrilling, even if I couldn’t have expressed it in those words at that age. I just knew that here was something new and different, and that it would be part of my life forever more. This album still moves me more than fifty years later and is still astonishingly prescient.

Favorite Albums of All Time
(1972)
"Femme fatales emerged from shadows to watch this creature fair
Boys stood upon their chairs to make their point of view
I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey
Lady Stardust sang his songs of darkness and dismay..."
There are Bowie snobs who will try to tell you that Bowie’s best album is “Hunky Dory” or “Low,” but they’re just being contrarian. Everyone knows this is his best! This is that rare album that picks up steam as it goes along: all of the rockers are on Side 2. The entire album is great, though - not a skip in the bunch!
