David Bowie: Rock'n Roll Star (LP-vinyl)

David Bowie – Rock 'n' Roll Star! (LP) is a vinyl (half-speed master) compilation released on June 14, 2024, serving as a condensed companion release to the extensive 5CD/Blu-ray box set of the same name. The album charts the creation and breakthrough of the Ziggy Stardust persona between 1971 and 1972, featuring 14 rare studio takes, alternative mixes, and outtakes from The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars recording sessions. Highlights include an intimate alternative take of Lady Stardust, a previously unheard version of the rarity Shadow Man, the Top of the Pops mix of the hit Starman, and an uptempo rendition of The Who cover I Can't Explain, which Bowie later recorded at a slower pace for his Pin-Ups album.
