Ziggy Stardust - David Bowie's breakthrough album

Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking!

Released in 1972, "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" was David Bowie's breakthrough album.  In a world that had run out of resources and had only five years left, Ziggy Stardust is an alien creature who becomes a rock star with all that entails.  

When Bowie first toured Australia in 1978, he played five songs from Ziggy Stardust.  On later tours, he dropped those songs in favour of later work such as "Station to Station", and "Heroes".
