The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars 2012

This is undoubtedly, the single best release since the Bowie team starting remastering and re-issuing his releases two decades ago. The stereo version on here is a sonic upgrade worthy of anyone's catalog. The album has never sounded so clear. The ATMOS mix is fantastic as well.The only word of warning is that in an effort to boost Bowie's vocals, Mick Ronson's guitar has be reduced a bit. As producer Ken Scott, himself, noted in reference to this change, if you boost something, you have to take away something else. Personally, I would have preferred Mick's guitar as maximum volume, but to each their own.

MY DAUGHTER WAS TOTALLY JACKED AND LOVED HER BIRTHDAY GIFT FROM HER BROTHER. IT WAS WELL PACKAGED AND NOW MY HOUSE SOUNDS LIKE A CONCERT HALL

The album speaks for its self. Best of Bowie.Great pressing, 180 gram disc perfect album cover.

Great album with no complaints. The story of Ziggy Stardust, a very interesting and iconic album. CD has held up well over the past 6 months or so, definitely a must for anybody looking for something that is a pivotal piece in the history of music.

Item arrived in good condition and as advertised. Shipping time was as estimated. Very good transaction. Thank you.

Vinyl plays perfect 0 skips, I’ve seen a lot of reviews, saying how it’s been packaged in a cheap paper sleeve, well this is a 2024 reissue and it’s packaged in a custom picture and lyrics sleeve that is made pretty well. I’m sorry for others who haven’t gotten this version

This Dolby Atmos Bluray is amazing!Sound is clear and great!

One of my favourite Bowie records, next to "Station To Station". Music speaks for itself, so this review concentrates on the 2016 180g vinyl release.I had actually not owned a copy of this album on vinyl, and had picked up the 2022 half-speed mastered edition at a local record shop. Went to play it and while sound OK, it sounded muddy, in some cases distorted and in short...just did not sound right. "Suffragette City" in particular did not sound like it should. Comparing to that track on my old 1976 pressing of Changesonebowie...that sounded MUCH better despite the clicks and pops. Who knows why...could be that the album was mastered from a digital copy of the original master tape, could have been defective, maybe did not like my turntable setup (although it sounded similar on 2 other tables, 2 different cartridges that I have)...not sure.Given my positive experience with the 2016 180g remaster of "Station To Station", I decided to try this edition, purchased from Amazon. NIGHT AND DAY DIFFERENCE! Zero surface noise, no clicks, no pops, no skips (while some folks here received defective records or perhaps had to tweak their turntable setups, mine required none at all...I'm running a Shure M44E with a Jico SAS N55E stylus on a Sansui 1050E turntable for reference). Simply put, it sounded RIGHT! Crystal clear instrumentation, Bowie's voice sounded as it should and excellent stereo separation.Audio review (equipment, albums, music in general) is super subjective, so I ask you to take my review with a giant grain of sand and a very generous pour Margarita :), but I can tell in the 30+ years of buying/playing/collecting vinyl, this is an outstanding vinyl pressing of this album. Enjoy!
