  Amazon.com: Aladdin Sane: Music: David Bowie   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Aladdin Sane is even more impressive when considering that the same year this album was made, Bowie was also working with artists like Iggy Pop and Lou Reed, producing some of their most heralded works (the Stooges' Raw Power and Reed's Transformer).
Ricky Gervais once said that when he first heard "Aladdin Sane" he wondered if it was okay to like it because he was unsure if it was pretentious, but he soon realised he didn't care because it just sounded amazing.
"Aladdin Sane" is pretentious (although technically a new Bowie "character", Aladdin Sane was essentially an extension of Ziggy Stardust, with the Ziggy persona still adopted mostly for live shows), but rock never sounded so unpretentious for a fictitious concept.

  Aladdin Sane - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mike Garson joined Bowie to play piano on this album, and his performance on the title track has been called the album's highlight.
"The Jean Genie," the lead single of the album, peaked at #71 on Billboard's (North America) Pop Singles chart, while Aladdin Sane hit #17 on the Pop Albums chart.
In 2003, "Aladdin Sane - 30th Anniversary" was released on CD.

 Aladdin Sane>
Aladdin Sane's title song is this album's "Five Years".
Although a good portion of the songs on Aladdin Sane are hard rock and roll, a closer inspection reveals them to be advertisements for their own obsolescence -- vignettes in which the baton is being passed on to a newer sensibility.
Aladdin Sane works over the same themes that were raised in The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars - issuances from the Bowie schema that date back to The Man Who Sold the World.

 Bowie Wonderworld Columnists: Angel: Aladdin Sane - not quite Ziggy in America   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Aladdin Sane was a new being that appeared after Ziggy had been torn to pieces by his fans in Europe.
Aladdin Sane was in a sense Ziggy in America only instead of the brave flambouncy there was a philosopher, a tinker combining life, history, fashion, war, and of course the apocalypse.
As Aladdin David created his own visions of America in its own confusing apocalypse of parties and uncertainty, sex, hookers, drugs, a whirlwind of confusion about the world ending, and this one man soaking it all up like a sponge.

 David Bowie: Aladdin Sane 30th Anniversary 2CD Edition - PopMatters Music Review
As for Mick Ronson, the Aladdin Sane sessions captured the very best of him, gorgeously unaware then that Bowie was set to dump both he and his bandmates at tour's end.
Aladdin Sane was one of the few albums not to offer bonus tracks due to reasons previously stated: the original product was released as soon as there were enough songs to fill two sides of vinyl.
Meanwhile, it is EMI who are responsible for the 30th Anniversary Aladdin Sane re-issue (are you keeping up?), and one has to wonder precisely what goodies may turn up for the Fiftieth Anniversary edition.

Aladdin Sane is even more impressive when you consider that in the year this album was made, Bowie was also producing touchstone recordings for the Stooges (Raw Power) and Lou Reed (Transformer).
Aladdin Sane was written and recorded on the road.
It was that kind of enthusiasm that informed "Aladdin Sane." While it may not have the knock out sensationalism that snuck up on unsuspecting listeners the way "Ziggy Stardust" did, it is still an amazing document of an artist in his element.

 Review of David Bowie's 'Aladdin Sane'
Aladdin Sane (1973) is the sixth album from English singer-songwriter David Bowie.
The unusually named ‘Aladdin Sane (1913-1938-197?)’, on the other hand, will be pointed to by fans as proof of their hero’s talent.
Where it surpasses ‘Aladdin Sane’ is in the sheer beauty of its melody and in Bowie’s vocal delivery.

 BBC - Classic Rock/Pop Review - David Bowie, Aladdin Sane - 30th Anniversary Edition
Aladdin Sane is one of the finest forty-five minutes in rock.
His weary, decadent piano - put to particular good use on the title track - ''Aladdin Sane (1913-1938-197?)'' - was one of the album's talking points when it was first released in 1973.
Where Ziggy kinda feels like the first trembling steps towards stardom Aladdin Sane really proves Bowie as the superstar he deserves to be.

 The Ziggy Stardust Companion - Aladdin Sane (1973)
ALADDIN SANE (1973) was the first album that Bowie released after THE RISE AND FALL OF ZIGGY STARDUST AND THE SPIDERS FROM MARS (1972).
Stepping out of the Ziggy Stardust shadow (Bowie would announce his temporary retirement from the stage later that year), ALADDIN SANE was the aftermath of Ziggy's visit, a brutal memoir of the drugs, sex and glamour that a young starlet could find at the time.
A lighter affair than Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane is actually a stranger album than its predecessor, buoyed by bizarre lounge-jazz flourishes from pianist Mick Garson and a handful of winding, vaguely experimental songs.

 Amazon.co.uk: Music: Aladdin Sane [Enhanced]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Aladdin Sane is even more impressive when considering that the same year this album was made, Bowie was also working with artists like Iggy Pop and Lou Reed, producing some of their most heralded works (the Stooges' Raw Power and Reed's Transformer).
This weird follow-up to Ziggy Stardust isn't really a rock album, with the exception of Watch That Man, The Prettiest Star, Cracked Actor and The Jean Genie, four classic rock numbers of which the latter was a prelude to punk with its short, sharp riffs and inherent aggression.
This is simply not true, if anything 'Aladdin Sane' is the best of the three as it sees Bowie expanding his musical parameters even further, in particular with the addition of his long term collaborator Mike Garson appearing on piano.

 STEVEN MANGOLD - Aladdin Sane & Diamond Dogs - 30th Anniversary Editions
It certainly rambles much more than Aladdin Sane, but that turns out to be one of it’s strengths.
It can only be confirmed by the fact that I could pinpoint right away what I didn’t like about ALADDIN SANE in total as an album, and my analysis is still the same.
ALADDIN SANE is a collection of great Glam songs, but not a great album.

 David Bowie - Aladdin Sane
Bowie is cognizant that religion's geography -- the heavens -- has been usurped, either by science or by actual beings.
The titles may change from album to album -- from the superman, the homo superior, Ziggy, to Aladdin -- but the visions (the elimination of gender differences, the inevitability of Armageddon, and the conquering of death and time as we know them) -- and Bowie's rightful place in them -- remain constant.
"I think 'Aladdin' was much more in the area of 'Ziggy Goes to America,'" Bowie remarked of the Ziggy sequel written largely during his first extensive U.S. tour.

 Relationships with David Bowie
The record contained some of Bowie's most acclaimed work, much of it a reaction to his own fame and the conflict between his beliefs and the reality of stardom.
These themes were further explored, with the same musicians, on 1973's Aladdin Sane, another conceptual work about the disintegration of society.
The album is commonly called his "On the Road" album, because all of the songs (except for a new version of an old single, "The Prettiest Star") were written on the bus or trains during the tour.
