Proves that Bowie was better when he was gay. MWSTW is the pinnacle of the hard-rocking Bowie (sorry Tin Machine fans). It is on this album, that Mick Ronson invented modern hard rock lead guitar.

I mean, invented modern hard rock lead guitar.

this album is like Bowie's version of Black Sabbath, if that makes any sense (and even if it doesn't).
