ORIGINAL 1973 FIRST PRESS
THE SPIDERS FROM MARS LAST STAND !!!
DAVID BOWIE
PIN UPS
\ USA - (orange) RCA VICTOR - APL 1-0291
MINT IN SHRINK WRAPPER
after 40 years...! .....FINAL COLLECTION COPY!!!
Original 1973 first pressing of an underrated album where BOWIE does a flasback to the sixties, where the Spiders From Mars slash & thrash:::
Spiders From Mars guitarist Mick Ronson is the shining light on Pin Ups. Produced by Ken Scott and Bowie, the tunes delivered here lean on Bowie favorites from the '60s, which includes songs originally recorded by The Yardbirds, The Who and The Kinks. It's basically a roll-call of 60's British bands that Bowie admired during his early days as a struggling beat musician. The song selections are all solid, with a lot of fire here coming from the backing band (The Spiders From Mars last appearance on a Bowie album), with Mick Ronson's raw guitar work propelling album highlights such as The Pretty Things rave-up 'Rosalyn', The Who's 'I Can't Explain', and a laconic version of The Kinks 'Where Have All the Good Times Gone'. Indeed, the way Bowie re-works "I Can't Explain" or "See Emily Play" into totally new songs by changing tempos and arrangements suggests that he perceived Pin Ups as an artistic statement, or at least an artistic intervention ..check out how Bowie plays up the weirdness in Pink Floyd's "See Emily Play" - complete with way-out backing vocals and an "I Am The Walrus" type finish...Overall, an interesting oddity in the early '70s Bowie career ...The album has a good song collection that shows Bowie's fine taste is not limited to fashion and album covers. The Who, Kinks, Syd Barrett Pink Floyd, not to mention several lesser known "Nuggets-styled" sixties singles are all included and performed with passion and respect.
