Music reviews of The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust
Music Review: Can't listen to one song
Rating: 5 Stars
Whenever I hear a song from this album I need to play all of it. it is one of those albums that makes you want to hear the whole thing from beginning to end. By far his best album in my opinion. From the urgency of "5 years" to the introspective "rock n roll suicide " this is a complete perfectly flowing album. If your new to Bowie and are looking for a good offering from this period in his career, this is where to start.
Description of The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust
After flirting with heavy guitar rock ("The Man Who Sold the World") and lighter pop ("Hunky Dory"), Bowie found middle ground on Ziggy Stardust. The creation of the Ziggy Stardust persona would live on well after Bowie shed the alien skin, marking the first rock concept album by a sexually ambiguous, artistically bent musician who confounded critics at every turn. A blend of dramatic strings, swaggering saxophones, jagged guitars, and theatrical arrangements, the album's darker rock numbers like "It Ain't Easy," "Moonage Daydream," "Ziggy Stardust," and the irresistible "Suffragette City," still serve as solid excursions into the future (then and now) of rock. The buoyant "Hang on to Yourself" and the dreamy "Star" offer hints of optimism in Ziggy's bleak world. The dramatic "Rock 'n' Roll Suicide" and the image-heavy "Star Man" ("he'd like to come and meet us but thinks he'd blow our minds!") no doubt provided plenty of stage-worthy moments when Ziggy toured in the '70s, but years later they still thrill. Bowie blew our minds! --Lorry FlemingProto Punk CDs
