David Bowie - Blackstar: 7 (B+)


I have every Acclaimed Music top 100 album except this. I continue to believe that people overrate this because Bowie released it in conjunction with his death, so it hits home for people harder than the music actually warrants. Many listens (8-12). I would buy it despite the grade, given how beloved it is, but for some reason it only sells for a very high price for a single album. Update (November 2026): Somehow ended up with a copy of the reissue, and upped it a notch in the process.
