David Bowie‘s 1972 masterpiece The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars lands as a deluxe 5CD and 1 Blu-Ray Audio set, called Rock ‘n’ Roll Star!, on June 14.
As a taster for the box, you can hear the “Ziggy Stardust” demo, recorded by Bowie on vocal and acoustic guitar in March 1971 at Haddon Hall in Beckenham.

Rock ‘n’ Roll Star! contains 29 unreleased tracks, covers early songwriting demos, recordings from The Arnold Corns, rehearsals at Haddon Hall, BBC sessions, singles, live performances, plus outtakes and alternative versions from the original album recording sessions, which have been newly mixed by original album producer, Ken Scott.

The Blu-Ray also includes a version of the Ziggy album called Waiting In The Sky (Before The Starman Come To Earth), taken from Trident Studio tapes dated December 15, 1971, which features an alternative running order and four songs that didn’t make the final album. This will also be available as a limited vinyl LP on April 20, 2024 for Record Store Day. In addition, there is a 1-LP version of Rock ‘n’ Roll Star! compiling the alternative takes and mixes.
Rock ‘n’ Roll Star! also contains two books. The first is an extensive 112-page book with detailed liner notes, memorabilia, contemporary reviews and articles, rare photographs, as well as brand-new notes and interviews. Accompanying the main book is a 36-page compiled reproduction of Bowie’s personal Ziggy-era notebooks.
