I mean you should skip from Aladdin Sane to Station To Station.

That skips Diamond Dogs, though. That has the title track, the Sweet Thing/Candidate/Sweet Thing (Reprise) trio, Rebel Rebel, Rock n Roll With Me, 1984, We Are the Dead, Big Brother.

The only things I don't like on the album is the closing track, which is weak.

I like 1984 and Sweet Thing but not the rest of it.

I love the funk bass. One of the great uses of an instrument.

Bootsy Collins approves. :up:

Tell that to Axver though. Ax, if you read this later, did you get my email?

Pretty much all the major songs and certain album cuts. Not everything, though.

I always thought the music was decent, but it never grabbed me in a way that I just had to explore every album.

I recommend delving into his albums if you get the chance. Ziggy Stardust, Station to Station, and Low being my three main recommendations.

Big Brother's got that epic ending:

Someone to claim us!
Someone to follow!
Someone to shame us!
Some brave Apollo!
Someone to fool us!
Someone like you...
We want you, Big Brother!

And the Celtics are winning.

They can't win on the road anymore, and yet they can get away with it still.

Why do they need to win on the road? They've got Umbuntu, which could be Swahili for "Thank God we've got Rajan Rondo."

Danny Ainge got Executive of the Year?! :lol:
 
Rock 'n' Roll With Me is a sweet little tune, and We Are the Dead is an interesting psuedo-ballad.

I actually think I prefer most of the second half to Sweet Thing and Candidate.
 
I need to re-visit Diamond Dogs as well. I haven't listened to it in sequence in a while.

Yeah, just saw that clip, too.

It's amazing how good executives look after a couple of trades.

Shouldn't he at least share it with Kevin McHale?
