Bowie's Greatest Trilogy?
A lot has been made of the Berlin Trilogy, but what really are Bowie's greatest 3 consecutive records? He had the great output in the 70's, so there's a lot to choose from and many reasons for doing so. I'm of the opinion that Hunky Dory/Ziggy/Alladdin Sane is his greatest trilogy, with Aladdin being one of his most under-rated, most maligned and misunderstood albums. The Spiders are so tight and the avant-garde sax and piano flourishes make it not only a glam, but art rock masterpiece.
