David Bowie – Rock 'N' Roll Star! (2024)

Go behind the curtain of rock’s greatest transformation. Rock 'N' Roll Star! is a deep-dive exploration into the evolution of David Bowie as he moved from the folk-rock of Hunky Dory to the world-shaking persona of Ziggy Stardust. This collection is a treasure trove for fans, compiling rare alternative takes, studio outtakes, and radio sessions from the most fertile period of Bowie's career (1971–1972).

Far more than a simple greatest hits, this record features early demos recorded at Bowie's Haddon Hall home and previously unreleased studio versions that shed new light on the creation of an icon. Whether it's the raw energy of "The Arnold Corns" sessions or the stripped-back acoustic demos, this vinyl provides an intimate look at the man who would become the Starman.

Key Features:

  • The Sound: A fascinatng mix of Glam Rock, Power Pop, and raw studio experimentation, featuring the legendary Spiders from Mars.

  • Essential Tracks: Includes the previously unreleased early version of "Shadow Man," alternative takes of "Lady Stardust" and "Star," plus the high-energy Trident Studios version of "I Can't Explain."

  • Production: Features a Half-Speed Master for superior audio fidelity, newly mixed from the original master tapes for a modern high-end listening experience.

  • Format: 12" Black Vinyl LP
