Aladdin Sane Vinyl Record

Bowie had just cracked the mainstream with 1972's The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars when Aladdin Sane hit shelves one short year later. Initial reviews were mixed, but the album eventually became a cornerstone of the Bowie canon, not to mention an icon in terms of the famously closed-eyed, lightning-bolted face on its cover. This 12-inch pressing is a reissue of the original 1973 release and includes replicas of the original inner sleeve and fan club form. Hits like "The Jean Genie" and "Drive-In Saturday" exemplify a rocking, lyrically motivated record of Bowie at his best.

Multi-talented destroyer of musical, cultural, and sexual norms of all stripes, David Bowie is known primarily as the six-time Grammy-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame-anointed artist that's influenced (we're willing to bet) most of your favorite bands. Having dedicated a life to art across various media, including film, theater, fashion, and of course music, Bowie is an icon's icon, filling nearly six decades of popular music with his unmistakable panache.
