David Bowie – Hunky Dory (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Released just months before Ziggy Stardust would transform rock and roll forever, Hunky Dory captures Bowie at a pivotal crossroads, confident enough to write love letters to his heroes Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, and Andy Warhol while simultaneously inventing a future none of them could have imagined. Songs like "Life on Mars?" and "Changes" became cornerstones of his legacy precisely because they were written without a persona to hide behind, just Bowie at the piano, figuring out who he was.
Hunky Dory is David Bowie's fourth studio album originally released 1971 by RCA Records. Following the release of his 1970 album, The Man Who Sold the World, Bowie settled down to write new songs, composing on piano rather than guitar as on earlier tracks. Compared to the guitar-driven hard rock sound of The Man Who Sold the World, Bowie opted for a warmer, more melodic piano-based pop rock and art pop style on Hunky Dory. The album's cover artwork, photographed in monochrome and subsequently recoloured, features Bowie in a pose inspired by actresses of the Hollywood Golden Age. VINYL LP
