Bowie

As someone who spent many years commuting between Beckenham and London via Brixton how could I say no to Bowie. But like others, I think a lot of his material is not progressive. Rule out "Young Americans", "Pin ups" and "Lets Dance" for starters. Some of "The man who sold the world" definitely fits the bill, plus, I think, much of "Scary Monsters". I would also vote for parts of "Low" and "Heroes", and "Station to Station".

This highlights the fact that Bowie is a chameleon and can't be catalogued as one thing or another, he is unique.

Good luck making a choice, but maybe be prepared to add and subtract in the light of feedback and requests?
