David Bowie
"Let's Dance"

Released in 1983

Bowie always had hits, but was never as popular in the mainstream as he became with this album. This release made him a true superstar on a different level. It's an interesting mix of mainstream hits and songs you'd find on more of his experimental albums - a clear difference between the first and second side. The hits weren't just hits, though, they are among the artist's greatest hits and my own personal favorites.

David Bowie was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
