This could be so different tomorrow!
1) David Bowie - Low
2) Japan - Quiet Life
3) Roxy Music - For Your Pleasure
4) Nick Drake - Bryter Later
5) Queen - Queen II
Hoping the next semi is a little easier, but I doubt it.

Ian, It’s probably my favourite Bowie album. I still remember John Peel playing it in its entirety in January 77 just before it was released.

My nailed on No. 1

Totally agree. Stranded was the first Roxy album I bought on release. Not a bad track on it. Country Life I found a little patchy.

It’s up there. It was the second Bowie I saved my pocket money for after Ziggy. All my friends were into Yes, Floyd, Purple and Sabbath but they were impressed with Ronson’s guitar playing on it. Greatly underrated musician.

Top of my list followed by Station to Station. Picking numbers 3 to 5 is going to take some work.

Wow. I thought the first semi final was tough. Really going to be difficult to get it down to just five.
