Diamond Dogs: Side B

Ah, Side B. Where we actually talk about the album. And what an album this time!

Diamond Dogs is something different from Bowie's previous works. Quite different. Will Erik remember 1984 from his high school reading of the material? Will Dan cry at any point? Will Iman grant us the rights to Bowie's music so we can more easily reference what we're talking about?
