David Bowie 1967 (Deram)
The laughing gnome
Shes got medals
Over the top we go (With Oscar)

As for the rest don't have enough time to type. Also the original space oddity from 1968 sounds very different to the hit single.

Bowies got toomany great songs for me to segregate album top album but heres a list of a few i like in roughly chronological order

Space Oddity, Oh you pretty things, The prettiest star, The man who sold the world (best), life on mars, Andy Warhol, Changes (best lyrics "and these children that you spit on????", john I am only dancing (original and 75 mix), suffragette city (wham bam thank you maam), aladdin sane, rock and roll suicide, sorrow, golden years, can you hear me (ethereal), fame, station to station, TVC15, Breaking glass, low, sound and vision (utter genius), wild is the wind, helden (german version of heroes), heroes, boys keep swinging, Mr DJ, ashes to ashes, fashion, scary monsters and super creeps, under pressure, cat people, lets dance, china girl, blue jean, tonight, this is not america, absolute beginners, underground, magic dance, day in day out, glass spider, and after that it thins out although Thursdays child and hello spaceboy are ok.

Good luck to anyone who can analyse that
17 Years ago I made a commitment to Prince
