David Bowie Aladdin Sane album 1973

The album cover of Bowie’s Aladdin Sane is such a well known image that it can be difficult to imagine the impact this had on a young teenager like me back in 1973. But I had never seen anything like this before and I thought it was just amazing.

 

Aladdin Sane wasn’t my favourite Bowie album, I preferred 'Hunky Dory' and 'Ziggy Stardust', but it did have two fantastic singles on it: ‘Drive-In Saturday’ and ‘The Jean Genie’.

 

Side one

1. Watch That Man

2. Aladdin Sane (1913-1938-197?)

3. Drive-In Saturday

4. Panic in Detroit

5. Cracked Actor

 

Side two

1. Time

2. The Prettiest Star

3. Let's Spend the Night Together

4. The Jean Genie

5. Lady Grinning Soul
