I was originally going to do the show on an album by album basis, but I realised that this would probably be too close in style to Steve's LP Box, and I don't want to cause conflict between two of my favourite projects. Incidentally, I remembered that I have already done an LP Box on The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars, so although I provide a link to it, I am not going to listen to it again, (I rarely listen to my old stuff anyway, although I keep everything I do), so as not to copy it.
Rather than following the LP Box formula, instead I am going to make the album the focal point, but also feature as much content as possible from that same era. So the first one, Ziggy, will actually include singles released during 1972 that actually came from Aladdin Sane for example. There are going to be a lot of episodes of this, as I want to include as much detail as possible so I'm not concerned how long an episode is, as long as I have finished telling the story by the time I come to the very last one. The final Moonage Daydream will centre on The Next Day, and also catch up with where David Bowie has been and what he's been doing for the last ten years. At least the theory at the moment is that MD will finish there, who knows what to expect from the great man these days?
