Description

Watching him dash away, swinging an old bouquet - dead roses Who will love Aladdin Vain....?
Well you might after viewing all the tasty Bowie stuff I have on offer.  Built up over years - yes, like so many others after that seminal TOTP performance - my collection is quite substantial with some rare albums, memorabilia and curios, but due to a move it is now downsize time, so please take a look at my other items, it's absolutely Bowie. HUNKY DORY LIMITED EDITION 12" PICTURE DISC RCA 1984 CAT NO. 736
The precursor to Bowie's masterpiece, The Rise And Fall of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars, Hunky Dory points in many of the same musical directions as Ziggy, with Bowie camping it up outrageously through a mixture of cabaret piano, coquettish lyrics and soaring vocals. After the hard rock "The Man Who Sold The World", Mick Ronson's guitar is turned down in favour of plenty of piano and acoustic guitar, as Bowie proves his mettle as a masterful singer-songwriter. Not a dull note is struck on the whole album, which flits from opener "Changes" to the vampy "Oh! You Pretty Thing" to the heart-wrenching "Life On Mars" with a seemingly impeccable ear for a tune. Flirty, sexy and irresistibly seductive.
Condition of cover excellent.  Disc is in mint condition.

Despite my low feedback, I am not new to ebay. In fact my I have plenty of experience with my partner which goes back some time, but for my Bowie items I am going solo, so I know exactly what is expected so please bid with complete confidence.
Your questions are welcomed and will be answered promptly.
I hope to post within 48 hours of receiving your cleared payment. Where possible a postage discount will be offered for multiple purchases. Your album will be sent in a stiff purpose made cardboard album mailer.
Paypal only for overseas buyers and I am more than happy to ship worldwide, however if the value of the item justifies tracked or insured postage then the invoice will be amended accordingly to take in the extra cost. 
Returns accepted, but only if the items differs significantly from the description. 
In the meantime "give me your hands, cos you're wonderful" and good luck!
