David Bowie- Low
 
Low sounds a lot better after you've had some beer and are a little tipsy, anyone else notice this?

krastian 05.23.2006 02:01 AM

Yes I have noticed that.

porkmarras 05.23.2006 03:49 AM

I like listening to it with the sound of the tv turned completly down

IntoTheGroovey 05.23.2006 06:02 AM

One of the best albums eva quite obviously.

My order of best Bowie albums goes:
Diamond Dogs
Station to Station
Lodger
Low
Heroes
Ziggy Stardust
all the others

if I made a top 100 albums of all time, thosse 6 would definitely be in there.

I like Scary Monsters, but Ashes to Ashes kind of ruins it for me. I hate self-referencing songs.

Low is my favorite bowie album. It definitely has a timeless sound. It is the superior Eno / Bowie collaboration, imo.

I would also put Hunkie Dory on that list, too. I really love Life on Mars, Andy Warhol, Changes, etc.

No Aladdin Sane love?

Savage Clone 05.23.2006 01:05 PM

Found a mint original promo of Low the other day at work. Definitely one of his weirdest and most interesting LPs!

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 05.23.2006 02:08 PM

Those are just my favorites. I love every album up to Let's Dance.

porkmarras 05.24.2006 04:52 AM

On Aladdin sane the song i simply adore the piano solo.It does really sound like it's being played by an insane lad.

i think i'm gonna have to get my hands on a copy of low. whats the song warszawa like?

ricechex 05.25.2006 08:08 AM

I think that's an instrumental track on side 2. i have the LP. there might be some weird chanting or screams or something on it..haha. weird fuckin album alright.half the album has shorter quirky numbers. the other, longer mostly instrumental atmospheric stuff.

Glice 05.25.2006 08:14 AM

As a non-fan of Bowie, I have to say that this album's second side is one that I like. Which is strange, because I can't stand Eno either. It's a glitch of goodness in two mystifyingly popular careers for me.
