 Parlophone Records va publier le 14 juin un nouveau coffret consacré à la période Ziggy Stardust de David Bowie.

Baptisé Rock ‘n’ Roll Star!, le coffret audio de 5 CD et Blu-Ray retrace la création du personnage de Ziggy Stardust, la sortie de The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars en 1972, ainsi que les nombreuses sessions radio et apparitions télévisées au Royaume-Uni auxquelles le célèbre alter ego de David Bowie a participé.

La collection comprend 29 titres inédits, des démos aux outtakes en passant par les performances live. On y trouve notamment une reprise de « I Can’t Explain » des Who, la rareté « Shadow Man », et bien d’autres choses encore.
