Description
Aladdin Sane is the sixth studio album by English musician David Bowie, released by RCA Records (AYL1-3890) on 13 April 1973. As the follow-up to his breakthrough “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars”, it was the first album he wrote and released from a position of stardom.
Aladdin Sane, was described by Bowie himself as simply “Ziggy goes to America”, most of the tracks were observations he composed on the road during his Ziggy Stardust Tour, which accounted for the place names following each song title on the original record labels. Biographer Christopher Sanford believed the album showed that Bowie “was simultaneously appalled and fixated by America”.
The album debuted at the top of the UK charts and reached No. 17 in the US. It is estimated to have sold 4.6 million copies worldwide, making it on of Bowie's highest selling LP's. In 2003 the album was ranked among six Bowie entries on Rolling Stone's list of 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
