David Bowie's Aladdin Sane is the restless 1973 follow-up to Ziggy Stardust, presented here on CD in its 2013 remaster.

Written largely on the road during Bowie's first American tour, the album is often described as Ziggy goes to America, and it feels like it: jittery, glamorous and more than a little dangerous. The Spiders from Mars are on blistering form, and the addition of pianist Mike Garson brings an avant-garde jazz streak that makes the album unlike anything else in glam rock. Bowie co-produced with Ken Scott.

The Jean Genie is the stomping hit, built on a dirty blues riff and a wink of a lyric about a street-smart character. Drive-In Saturday is a gorgeous, nostalgic doo-wop pastiche set in a strange future, while Panic in Detroit races along on a Bo Diddley beat and paranoia. The title track Aladdin Sane is the showpiece, Garson's wild, tumbling piano solo spiralling off into the stratosphere.

Bowie also tears through a gleeful cover of the Rolling Stones' Let's Spend the Night Together. Add the iconic lightning-bolt cover, and Aladdin Sane remains one of the defining albums of the glam era, a snapshot of an artist moving at full speed and refusing to stand still.
