I do love Bowie. Greatest artist of all time.

But the Berlin trilogy isn't even an accurate name. Most of Low was recorded elsewhere and none of Lodger was made there. Only Heroes had a significant portion made in Berlin.

But still I place Ziggy Stardust, Scary Monsters, Station to Station, and Blackstar above the Berlin Trilogy. But this is ranking absolutely stellar albums.

I mean, that's fair lol. But he was living there at least and certainly influenced by the music scene and vibe there in his recordings.

Very true though, ranking one of the greatest discographies from one of the greatest ever is no simple thing

Definitely influenced by it.

Also, my favorite album of all time was partially recorded in Berlin. Achtung Baby.
