I think Berlin is his best solo album,I don't have Rock n' Roll Animal.Transformer and Magic And Loss are the runners-up for me.
I thought Songs For Drella was a great album too,where he reunited with John Cale to pay tribute to Andy Warhol.


I expect some of it will be released eventually.It seems that record companies prefer to keep re-releasing the same old stuff in greatest hits packages rather than promote something new.
It has to do with The Bowie bonds. He gets 50 million in is hand and they own his music till the money is payed back in interest. The bowie bonds are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. So while they keep releasing old stuff i cant see him releasing anything new when the market is allready flooded. Which is sad because in Bowie circles his last two are amoung his best.
