5. Cracked Actor
6. Rebel Rebel
7. Lady Stardust
8. Hang On To Yourself
9. Sound And Vision
10. Lady Stardust
 
Very good flow so far. No big problems.

But the sequencing from El Manana to Rejoice sucks ass. I should know.
 
I'm sort of surprised you don't like I'm Deranged or Hallo Spaceboy. They are just so amazing.

I enjoy I'm Deranged. Good, not great, I'd say. Hallo Spaceboy ... it's OK, I guess. Never really caught my interest too much, though.

To love Aladdin Sane, you have to love Garson's solo, and I just don't like it much.

Aside from that, though, I love the other nine you listed there.

I rank his albums:

1. Station to Station
2. Space Oddity
3. Ziggy Stardust
4. Low
5. Aladdin Sane
6. "Heroes"
7. Scary Monsters
8. Lodger
9. Hunky Dory
10. Diamond Dogs
11. 1. Outside
12. Heathen
13. Young Americans

I think Heathen needs a few more spins, though.

It does:

1. Ziggy Stardust
2. Low
3. Station to Station
4. Scary Monsters
5. Hunky Dory
6. Aladdin Sane
7. Space Oddity
8. Heathen
7. "Heroes"
8. Diamond Dogs
9. The Man Who Sold the World
10. 1. Outside
11. Reality
12. Earthling
13. Young Americans
14. The Buddha of Suburbia
15. David Bowie
16. Pin Ups
17. 'hours...'
18. Black Tie / White Noise
19. Let's Dance
20. Lodger
21. Tonight
22. Never Let Me Down

"Wet Sand" into "El Manana" didn't work, but the songs are good enough to compensate. "Manana" into "Always Forever Now," however, was sublime.

Isn't One Foot in Heaven the next track after Wet Sand?

I really hope I didn't fuck up my own playlist.

Dude, you're missing a track. One Foot In Heaven goes between RHCP and Gorillaz.

The segue from OFIH to Manana was OK. Pretty cool.

Mostly similar to mine. My love for Station to Station and Space Oddity are a little more than the norm, but other than that, it's comparable.

95% chance this is my fault since I don't have them in order coming out of the ZIP. Damn my father's computer.
 
guys. i'm on the last superthread now (brest railway, no sense in doing this thread till it's done)

Woah, awesome.

I do hope this is something we can put on a webpage and keep it updated after each thread. We should also put up the purity scores (I found my file with them).

at the very least i can put it on my website. i'm sure i could throw together a superthread page with our post rankings and purity scores.
 
:laugh: So, it's amazing what's in my "to transfer to the external hard drive and listen to" folder. I just found a Lichens album, which I downloaded solely because Vazza hated him as an EITS opener and I thought it'd be funny to see if he lives up to just how hilariously shit it sounds like he'll be.

And come on, one of the songs is called M St r ng W tchcr ft L v ng n Sp r t.
