It starts getting REALLY good with The Man Who Sold The World (1970). This is a fantastic album, one of Bowie's best. It may not be particularly innovative, but what it is is distinctive. The music has a certain weird, eerie oddness to it that is so idiosyncratically David Bowie. Virtually all the songs on the album are quality album tracks, not least the title track itself (which Nirvana covered on MTV in 93). Who else has heard the greatness of this album?

I do like it yes, as far as is glam rock period goes it's a really good consistent collection. Can't go wrong with Width of a Circle, beautiful song.
