David Bowie – Rise, Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars: 50th Half Speed (Vinyl LP)

$48.00

50th Anniversary Half-Speed Mastered Pressing Cut by John Webber at AIR Studios!

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars is the breakthrough album that catapulted David Bowie into the international spotlight. Over the past 50 years it has remained a touchstone record, growing in stature with each passing year. It is now ingrained in popular culture, its undeniable influence spanning musicians from Arcade Fire to Lady Gaga, to Harry Styles’s androgynous fashion sense to Noel Fielding’s shirts on The Great British Bake-Off to Ziggy make-up challenges on Tik-Tok. Bowie laid to rest the Ziggy Stardust persona in July 1973 at his infamous last show with the Spiders From Mars at London’s Hammersmith Odeon, but Ziggy’s impact reverberates to this day.

This 50th anniversary vinyl LP pressing of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars was cut on a fully customized late Neumann VMS80 lathe with fully re-capped electronics from 192 kHz restored mastered of the original Trident Studios master tapes, with no additional processing on transfer. The half speed was cut by John Webber at AIR Studios.
