Review: From 'The Laughing Gnome' to 'Blackstar', everyone has their favourite period of Bowie's career. At the same time, it's a brave person who would dispute that the time frame of this quadruple CD collection is generally accepted to be the moment when the Think White Duke was at his absolute creative peak. Recorded in Los Angeles and Tokyo, the set includes material from the undeniably classic albums including Diamond Dogs and The Rise & Fall of Ziggy Stardust plus a clutch of additional renditions of the equally revered 'Space Oddity', 'The Man Who Sold The World' and the teasingly homoerotic 'Boys Keep Swinging'.

Review: Before the most recent film 'Moonage Daydream' came the quintessential 'Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars' documentary, recorded at London's Hammersmith Odeon, capturing the final performance of Bowie's alter ego and his backing band The Spiders From Mars. Featuring classic songs such as 'Moonage Daydream', 'Starman', 'Rock 'n' Roll Suicide' and 'Ziggy Stardust', this 50th anniversary edition includes a remastered version of the original album on two CDs, plus a Blu-ray disc with the restored film and bonus features.
