Our Take

DAVID BOWIE's iconic album "The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars" is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a limited edition picture disc, and let me tell you, it's out of this world. From the opening chords of "Five Years" to the closing notes of "Rock 'n' Roll Suicide," Bowie takes us on a cosmic journey through the world of Ziggy Stardust, the flamboyant and enigmatic rock star.

The production on this album is as slick as Ziggy's orange jumpsuit, with Bowie's vocals soaring over Mick Ronson's killer guitar riffs like a spaceman in zero gravity. Tracks like "Starman" and "Suffragette City" are instant classics, while deep cuts like "Moonage Daydream" and "Lady Stardust" show Bowie's range as a songwriter.

But what really sets this album apart is Bowie's ability to tap into the zeitgeist of the early 70s while also creating a timeless sound that still resonates today. With its themes of alienation, fame, and self-destruction, "Ziggy Stardust" is more than just a concept album – it's a cultural touchstone that has influenced generations of musicians.

So grab your glitter and get ready to dance with the Starman himself. DAVID BOWIE's "The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars" is a glitter-drenched masterpiece that deserves a place in every music lover's collection. Highly recommended.

About the artist

David Bowie

Ah, David Bowie. The chameleon of rock. The shape-shifter of pop. The icon of androgyny. This man needs no introduction, but I'll give him one anyway. Bowie burst onto the scene in the 1970s, dazzling us with his flamboyant stage presence and out-of-this-world personas. From Ziggy Stardust to the Thin White Duke, he captivated audiences with his groundbreaking music and avant-garde style. But it's not just Bowie's theatricality that sets him apart. His music is a genre-bending blend of rock, pop, electronic, and everything in between. Whether he's crooning "Space Oddity" or getting funky with "Let's Dance," Bowie's discography is as diverse as it is innovative. And let's not forget his collaborations with the likes of Queen, Lou Reed, and Iggy Pop, which further solidify his status as a musical legend. Bowie's impact on the industry is undeniable. He paved the way for countless artists to embrace their individuality and push the boundaries of creativity. And his influence continues to be felt today, with musicians of all genres citing him as a major inspiration. So here's to David Bowie, the man who showed us that music knows no limits and that being yourself is the greatest gift of all. Rest in peace, Starman.
