Time To Get Manly 5: David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars

I randomly ran across a list of what Esquire magazine claims are "The 75 Albums Every Man Should Own." In this series of posts, I'll explore these manly, manly sounds.



David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars


There's nothing to really say about this record that hasn't been said a million times before. It's an absolute classic by almost any standard. If somebody was perusing your record collection and they saw this, they'd know you have good taste. Subsequently, if somebody was perusing your record collection, saw this and had anything negative to say about it, you should kick them out of your house. Is Ziggy Stardust manly? Um, it's about an alien rock star. It's like a comic book for your ears. You can't really go wrong.
