David Bowie released "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" on this day in 1972. It was an epic album with more influential hits then I will point to here today. David was on another planet mentally then which is probably why his music was so successful, it was different.
There are other songs of his I'd like to link here but for today I'll post "Starman" from this album.
