Listen to them yourself and come up with your own conclusions.

Everything from The Man Who Sold the World through Scary Monsters is good. Start off with Low and Ziggy Stardust
>>
>>60319770

Start with Ziggy Stardust.

>>
>>60319776

>>60319770
Never Let Me Down is his only good album.
>>
>>60319718
All of david bowie's discography from 69-83 is worth listening to. His berlin trilogy is my fav.
>>

He was so coked up he doesn't even remember making it.

Shit chart, remake it.
>>
>>60320385
Where's his debut?
Where is Heathen?
Where is Outside?
Where is Earthlings?
Why is that piece of shit Reality on there?
How is Station to Station similar to Scary Monsters?
How is there less cocaine on Station to Station than any other album by him?
How is Lodger the absolute opposite of Young Americans when Young Americans is funk/soul, and this chart says Lodger is funky?
Could there be a worse Bowie flowchart?
>>
>>60320541
> implying its mine
Its good for its branch from glam to berlin trio/station2station , op is clueless so this will help
>>60320509
yes , that was kek worthy , the flowchart maker meant as in less crazy probably
>>60320411
as i said, i dont agree with his flow choices or why to chose those paths, but for an absolute beginer the first division is the only one that matters. He will branch out on its own after the first 4~5 albums heard
>>
>>60320690
>>implying its mine
I hang out in a lot of flowchart threads, this is the first time I've ever seen it. You're the top suspect.
>>
>>60320690
>implying its mine
>Implying it needs to be yours to remake it

In order from best to 4th best IMO:

Ziggy Stardust
Station to Station
Low
Space Oddity
>>
>>60321083
Bad opinion m8
>>
With his 1st album like you would any other artist.
>>
>>60321083
Good opinion m8
>>
The Suburbs
>>
>>60319718
Best:
>Station to Station
>Low
>Heroes
>Ziggy Stardust
>Honky Dory
>>
>>60319844
it is crap
>>
>>60321269
I'd argue it's one of his absolute top albums, if nothing else it's definitely better than the Man Who Sold the World. If you like his 70s stuff there is absolutely zero reason to hate this.
>>
>>60320385
this isn't a particularly good chart OP, shocking that an artist as influential as Bowie doesn't merit an attempt from an expert on an indonesian sock puppet arcade.
>>
>>60320666
This. Station to Station is Bowie at his most drugged/cocaine powered. Hell he rarely plays any songs from it live and doesn't even remember recording it.
>>
>>60322145
he also stored all his urine and semen in his fridge so that witches wouldnt steal it
>>
>>60321269
>>60319844
Space Oddity isn't bad, but it does have at least one other song that justifies its existence:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKMSgZo9c8s

>>60320251
Did you actually eat your copy of Let's Dance?
>>
>>60322569
Plus Wild Eyed Boy from Freecloud, Memory of a Free Festival, Letter to Hermione and An Occasional Dream.

Probably a mistake by whoever made the chart.
Just assume it says more cocaine for station to station.
>>
>>60323098
Just read the Wikipedia article on the album.
>>
>>60319752

Most of his stuff is great, m8.
