It's hard to say what is considered Bowie's most acclaimed work because he's had so many classics, but a few instances where I liked a Bowie album better than the more popular one that followed it are Lodger > Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) and Young Americans > Station to Station. All the albums you listed are great Bowie. The Bowie songs which I never liked, in fact I detest, are the ones that went top 40 in the U.S.: like Lets Dance, China Girl, and that awful duet with Mercury, Under Pressure. That's all atrocious stuff which was made to appeal to the lightweight American mass audience. The Brits are much more sophisticated when it comes to Rock than Americans.
That may be so, but this is a shit example. Let's Dance went to #1 in both the UK and the US and was a big hit all over the world. Modern Love, China Girl and Under Pressure were bigger hits in the UK than the US.
