I agree the rock years aren't anywhere near as timelessly brilliant as the Berlin albums buuut I love 'the man who sold the world'. Twisted hard rock songs about mental illness and junk. I'm not sure how much input Bowie had on that album though, remember reading Visconti and Ronson did most of the work?
And how about him playing a 17-year-old version of himself in 'Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence'? That was just odd
