In honor of the 40th anniversary of David Bowie's influential glam-rock concept album 'The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars', EMI will reissue the record on June 4 in the UK and June 5 in the U.S.
Originally released on 6th June 1972, 'Ziggy Stardust' was David Bowie’s fifth album, co-produced by Bowie and Ken Scott. The album's influence is immeasurable, it converted legions of fans, becoming the zeitgeist and a major influence on the next generation, particular those who were involved in the punk movement (musicians, artists, designers) and the subsequent re-birth of rock and pop.
The remastered 40th anniversary edition will be available on CD and limited-edition vinyl, the latter accompanied by an audio DVD that includes previously unreleased mixes.
