On this day 8th July 1971



On this day in history excited fans at a Mott The Hoople concert at the Royal Albert Hall, London, caused trouble that resulted in some minor injuries and damage to two boxes. This prompted a temporary ban on rock gigs at the venue. The group were asked to pay £1,467 for damages to property, which was a considerable sum of money in that era.

Join me on my Rock & Roll tour to visit the recording studio in Soho, London where Mott the Hoople recorded their album and single “All the Young Dudes”. The producer of the album was David Bowie who was also wrote the single.

On this day 6, July 1972



On this day in history this was when it all started to motor for David Bowie as he appeared on the prime time family show Top Of The Pops with the Spiders from Mars to sing his single "Starman". This was to be only his second top 10 single since his first hit since 1969's 'Space Oddity' three years before. The single peaked at No.10 and stayed on the charts for 11 weeks.

The single was from his iconic 5th studio album the "Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars", which was recorded over a two-week period in November 1971 at London's Trident Studios in Soho. The album peaked at No. 5 in the UK, and remained in the chart for two years. Beatlemania was replaced by Bowiemania.

Join me on my David Bowie “Golden Years” tour to visit Brixton and Soho. Along the way we will visit where “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars” album cover was shot and where the album and single “Starman” was recorded.

On this day in history David Bowie releases his breakthrough album “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars” a concept album, which tells the story of the fictional rock star Ziggy Stardust that is set around a futuristic dying planet Earth.

Ziggy Stardust a red haired alien messiah visits Earth in an attempt to bring a message of hope to humanity in their final five years of existence. The fictional and now iconic Ziggy character was flamboyantly dressed and flaunted an androgynous image like nothing ever seen before.

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars is recorded over a two-week period in November 1971 at London's Trident Studios in Soho.

The album peaked at No. 5 in the UK, and remained in the chart for two years, strengthened by a sensational performance of "Starman" the one single from the album on the UK prime time TV show Top of the Pops in July 1972. Beatlemania was replaced by Bowiemania.

In 2012 Gary Kemp of Spandau Ballet unveiled in London a commemorative plaque above the exact spot where the album cover was shot on the 13th January 1972.

Rolling Stone, Time and VH1 magazines all have named Ziggy Stardust one of the best albums of all time. Despite "Ziggy played guitar" for the final time in July 1973 at the Hammersmith Odeon his legacy lives on.

On this day 12th December 2003



On this day in history in 2003, Mick Jagger was honoured with a knighthood at Buckingham Palace. Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace knighted him in front of his 92-year-old father who was there to see his son receive the award.

There was a lot of controversy about the knighthood with it being rumoured that the Queen refused to be a part of the ceremony. David Bowie, a close friend of Jagger’s apparently also took issue with his acceptance of the nomination. Bowie was offered the honour twice; turning down the monarch’s second attempt to provide him with the recognition the same year Jagger received his.

Join me on my rock & roll tour to visit so many areas of Rolling Stones musical importance in Soho.
