Anyone wanna brave a Jandek album ranking?

-IF- my mom had, say, Rubber Soul, that would have been #1. But she didn't. And if my mom had Tonight's The Night, that would have been number one. But she didn't.
The white album has a few really awful tracks, BUT there are so many more totally mindblowing tracks that it totally makes up for it.

That was just my list of years from the '80s, pseudoman. Were it for music, 1989: The Year of Roxette, Mike + Mechanics, and "500 Miles" would be much lower on the list.

I was asked by a friend to "listen through Eurythmics' catalogue and rank them" and I told them I didn't need to, and sent a link to Alfred's own ranking (which is identical to my own, and says more valuable and interesting things than I would say). "Eurythmics is easy," I texted, "but Bowie would be harder." So I did Bowie instead.

That's a bold choice for number one.
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Wednesday, 31 January 2024 22:49 (two months ago) link
shouldn’t it technically be 1. 1. Outside though
― scanner darkly, Thursday, 1 February 2024 00:16 (two months ago) link
He named it deliberately to top every ranked list of Bowie albums iirc
It's a personal choice bc it's the first of Bowie's albums I ever "went deep" on (that is, listened to incessantly), but As Albums Go it's his most complete and there's only one or two tracks I would consider inessential (and none are really bad); also his most original genre-creation. The only bad thing about it is the plot but I think it kinda serves as a stinky binding agent or something

I wonder where Blackstar and The Next Day would place if the Bowie ballot poll were done today. 12 years ago, jeez.
― that's when I reach for my copy of Revolver (WmC), Thursday, 1 February 2024 03:35 (two months ago) link
xp I get the personal choice aspect. For me, that was The Man Who Sold the World, which seemed like a gateway into a different universe. I also appreciate your comment on the "plot" of Outside, which always kept me from loving what I otherwise appreciated as a return to form/evolution in his sound and vision.
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Thursday, 1 February 2024 13:55 (two months ago) link
Yeah, I love The Man and have always ranked "The Width Of A Circle" highly on any personal song list. What an amazing way to start an album, a "gateway into a different universe" indeed, "turn around, go back!"

So we asked a simple black bird, who was happy as can beAnd he laughed insane and quipped Kahlil GibranAnd I cried for all the others till the day was nearly throughFor I realized that God's a young man too
Yes dammit so, so, so good. The synapse between post-hippie Bowie and alien-rock Bowie is magical
