David Bowie.

Its style and content bears little overt resemblance to the type of music that he was later known for, such as the folk rock influenced "Space Oddity" or the glam rock of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. NME critics Roy Carr and Charles Shaar Murray have said, "a listener strictly accustomed to David Bowie in his assorted '70s guises would probably find this debut album either shocking or else simply quaint", while biographer David Buckley describes its status in the Bowie discography as "the vinyl equivalent of the madwoman in the attic". - WIKIPEDIA

    it sounds less like anything else he's ever done than any subsequent record in his catalog.

    Bowie taking his inspiration from the Kinks; shallow, but quite fun.

    while I don't like this album much, I can't really hate it either.

    this is essential listening for anyone who likes the Boosh, the Conchords, and Austen Powers.

    So, stolen melodies, borrowed ideas, a lack of identity yet something keeps you coming back.
