It twas the 8th. I agree we need a new album, this year!

In my opinion, the 70's were his best years. The compilation album "ChangesOneBowie" includes virtually all of his biggest hits from 1969 through 1976.

Anyone who's not familiar with Bowie's music from that period, should definitely check it out:

Side one

1. "Space Oddity" (from Space Oddity, 1969) – 5:13
2. "John, I’m Only Dancing" (from "John, I’m Only Dancing" single, 1972) – 2:46
3. "Changes" (from Hunky Dory, 1971) – 3:33
4. "Ziggy Stardust" (from Ziggy Stardust, 1972) – 3:13
5. "Suffragette City" (from Ziggy Stardust, 1972) – 3:25
6. "The Jean Genie" (from Aladdin Sane, 1973) – 4:06

Side two

1. "Diamond Dogs" (from Diamond Dogs, 1974) – 6:04
2. "Rebel Rebel" (from Diamond Dogs, 1974) – 4:28
3. "Young Americans" (from Young Americans, 1975) – 5:10
4. "Fame" (Bowie, Carlos Alomar, John Lennon) (from Young Americans, 1975) – 3:38
5. "Golden Years" (from Station to Station, 1976) – 3:58

David Bowie, is the best artist of all time. no one has been able to slip into so many genres as him, and make it sound good.

David Bowie? In the words of the great Wayne Campbell...

WE'RE NOT WORTHY! WE'RE NOT WORTHY! WE'RE NOT WORTHY!

I love Bowie... Mainly his early stuff like Hunky Dory (Wakeman is on it

), Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane, I know his later Eno era stuff is a lot more popular with the hipster crowd, but whatever.

Heroes is awesome, you can't quite beat a trio of pure talent like Bowie, Eno and Fripp, I wish they would all do another album together, that would be sweeeeeeet.
