Whoops! Accidentally scheduled this video to come out a day early. Sod it. It’s out now. Shibbler Saturday’s won’t be the new norm, Shibbler Sunday’s will resume as normal next week. See you then. -Shib
Nice effort, listened to it all. Just noticing that when listening to albums in order to make a ranking, something is lost. Not necessarily having to do with favouring the familiar ones, but rather losing the experience, surprise of the first (or scarce) listening, by trying to focus on "objective" points to judge the album. Music should echo in the heart first. I know it takes time to create a video, and a schedule and a method is needed. I hope you find the time to listen to them just for your enjoyment. All the best
I did this about a year plus ago along with all his albums in order along with the single versions, b sides and mono and other special versions and demos that I could find that were available. As much of his discography as I could find on Wikipedia and Discogs and a couple of other sites for specific bands. But I definitely listened to all his studio albums, a few live ones and parts of compilation albums with songs I didn't hear in the regular albums or b sides. A great collection and it was a fun time. Hope you enjoyed it as well. I have done this for bands and performers I liked in alphabetical order. I am now on the C's at Chicago but have to finish my Cheap Trick exploration as soon as they put up all the Cheap Trick tracks on UA-cam and other places after they were taken down last month. I put the results on my UA-cam page and for the last year my Facebook group Music Collections A-Z.
Hello young man. You've got a good taste for music. I'm glad you appriciate David Bowie's music, he was always on the edge of time. Actually he was a genius with that recreating his art like a chamaleon for trends which were current.
You forgot the Labyrinth soundtrack. 1. Outside (The Nathan Adler Diaries: A Hyper Cycle) is my favourite Bowie album. Being a Bowie fan in the 90s was not easy, people really liked to shit on him back then, a lot of the so called criticism turned ageist as well. Even other Bowie fans turned their nose up at anything by him after the 70s. I was alone in liking Outside and Earthling,. Hours was an odd one, I don't dislike it, but there was something strangely quiet and lonely about this album, almost like most of his crew had left. Maybe it felt that way because the two previous albums were so noisy. One 70s Bowie enthusiast in my class was offended by the title "The Pretty Things Are Going to Hell", I guess she thought he was being dismissive of his past work. It's on my to buy list of vinyl because it wasn't printed on vinyl before 2015 (vinyl was not hot in 1999) and it would stand in a juxtaposition to the extremely y2k cover design. I really don't listen to his glamrock music anymore, I prefer his music from Station to Station, the Berlin trilogy, a bunch of his 80s stuff, Tin Machine, everything 90s and a lot of the past millennia work. Edit: I forgot about Toys, how could I with a nightmare fuel cover art like that. He did record I think the majority of these songs in the 60s, I have a compilation album that I bought in the 90s. I thought Toys was just a new reissue of these 60s recordings, not newer recordings of those songs. I guess I have a new album to listen to now.
Thank you! I probably will do at some point, though not for a while. If I do, I think it’ll be Dylan or Prince. Artists who I love but whose studio album discographies I’ve realistically only scratched the surface of. Eno definitely falls into that too, that’s a good shout.
Well I’m glad you like it. That album needs someone in its corner. I also don’t think it’s the worst album ever or anything like that. I mean, we’re talking about Bowie here. So many amazing albums in one discography. As a result, it falls short in comparison to the rest for me but in the grand scheme I don’t think it’s that bad.

I’ll buy you a calendar.
Station to Station is absolutely Bowie's greatest album. Good call!

shib how am i possibly going to survive 8 days without you
To be fair it’s going to take you a week’s worth of breakfasts to get through this video alone
@@Shibbleri'm gonna consume all of it today, i think i can get through those 7 days. we'll see
Station to station is so killer I’m glad you like it

I’ve always loved the chameleon metaphor in reference to Bowie. Couldn’t agree more
I hope you know I am going to dedicate a day to watch this video because Bowie is my sweetheart 🔥
Hope you enjoy!
coincidentally just searched this up exactly and ur vid popped up😂❤

You should make more of these videos. I love your takes! Going through Brian Eno's or Peter Gabriel's albums would be sick.
Thank you! I probably

Enjoyed the video shibbler very interesting watch - Tom
Cheers Tom!
excellent review from gf
Indeed
Shibbler this was an excellent video (your girlfriend sounds hot, more pls)
Thanks, she is
Crikey, I'd put Hours in my top 10 but to each their own...I think as you get older, you appreciate melancholic songs more and more
