Alternative Ziggy Stardust sleeve revealed

 

“…gaze a while down the old street“

 

For those of you that follow our Instagram page, you may have noticed that we’ve been teasing Parlophone’s rather nice alternative Ziggy Stardust cover, pictured here in its full glory.

The artwork features an alternative Brian Ward shot from the original Ziggy sleeve session in London’s Heddon Street and it has been coloured in the style of Terry Pastor’s original colour scheme.

The sleeve houses Ken Scott’s 2003 mix of The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars (previously only available with the Limited Edition 40th Anniversary Vinyl version of the album), and it’s included with both the CD and vinyl versions of the David Bowie (Five Years 1969 – 1973) box set, due September 25th.

Next week we will be focusing on David Bowie’s classic 1972 Ziggy Stardust album.
