In a bizarre way, Let's Dance remains one of his strongest overall outings, matched only by Low, his early 70's classics and (at the very end) Blackstar. Giving it a 5.
I agree. Even though it doesn't interest me as much as most of the albums he released in the 70's, I think it's the least pretentious and most upbeat album of his career.
