The two best tracks* from this excellent MOJO freebie comp: :format(webp):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-2167526-1364974985-7066.jpeg.jpg) but YOU can only choose ONE! * I mean, these are REALLY fine tracks. Seriously. None of yer crud, none of yer pretentious Japanese noiseniks or dreary US alt-folk |

Interesting poll results. Would never have thought this would be a draw. Well well.

I voted for LSD. As one does.
By-and-large, I think most 60s 'Bowie in a band' is pretty typical. That's probably the most notable exception, but if it wasn't Bowie and it was on a Freakbeat comp, I think the reaction would be 'nice' rather than 'woah!'

CHTAM for me.
I didn't know it untill many years ago I got the VH1 story tellers of Bowie, on which there is a fantastic version of the song.
Starts at 1.15 but also the talking before is very entertaining.

Both songs are absolute classics and I can't choose.

I've gone into this stuff deep and this is a real stand out track. |

Yeah, there's a boldness there that wasn't really typical of his other material of that time. And of course it's a very strong track with a memorable, punchy chorus.

You're always going on about that track. It's a very good track, more for its manic sound than anything else, but these two have more about them. |
