    Station To Station a masterpiece. it's between this or Low for his best album.

    I love the rendition of Stay on Stage though. Put that version in there because of the piano

    yup. made it during October after having relistened to his discogaphy over the course of the year. However, I've always made changes and I guess that I'm now content with it. Your post made me realize I could post it here.

    First two sentences are real asf. Can’t decide which I like more

    Absolute facts both are amazing albums it’s insane that low was made in 1977 it’s so ahead of its time

    yeah AGW is great but Bowie brought that style more to life

    most of them are just "alternate" takes I really like. Especially for Aladdin Sane and Ziggy. However, that 6 minute version of Jean Genie slaps.

    I love AGW but Low is closer to Station To Station's experiments (Kraftwerk, NEU! and plastic soul) with it's high emphasis on robotic drums and funk rock and soul (not saying Eno doesn't incorporate funk but in a different way Bowie did). AGW's drum work is "jazzier" . Synth work is pure Eno tho.Second half is more influenced by Terry Riley and Steve Reich in general (aside from Warszawa). "Heroes" is imo more Eno-influenced imo.
