David Bowie The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust - 1st - Contract Pressing UK vinyl LP album (LP record)
|
| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
More Details
Every track on Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars sounds like it was pulled from the rock 'n' roll bible. The album created a mythology that reached beyond the Chuck Berry folklorisms of the everyday rocker to create a new type of rockstar.
With Ziggy, Bowie created a viable alter-ego to descend onto the planet and wreak havoc on rock's fertile soil and in doing so, he created the most original rock creation since the music's inception 20 years before.
Musically, the album was as inspired as Ziggy's persona. Mick Ronson's snarling guitar evoked the triumphant power of the late '60s guitar heroes, but added a flash so dynamic fans knew why the Spiders were labelled 'glitter rockers'.
History
This first issue pre-dates the Mainman contract and as such there are NO Mainman references or logos anywhere on the sleeve or record label. There is a logo on the rear of the sleeve with the text 'A Gem Production'
The matrix numbers in the run out groove are:
BGBS 0864 -2E & BGBS 0865-2E
Condition
The sleeve shows general overall wear with a few dents to the reverse and ringwear visible to the front. The lyric inner shows moderate creasing with marks from a printing error on the lyric side
The vinyl is graded as EX/VG with just a few marks to indicate play.
