Another great review guy! I actually covered this as part of my "70s week" a while back. To be honest, while I loved the album and always have, I too was at sea with the storyline, so I turned to my trusty friend Wiki, who filled in the blanks. Even then, it's a weird plot.

Interesting thing about this album (as mentioned in my review) is that for a long time Bowie got so caught up in the Ziggy character and lifestyle that at times he didn't know whether it was Bowie playing Ziggy or Ziggy playing Bowie, and it nearly destroyed him.

Wiki's always good for research, I find. Made my review of the album much more informative, both for me and the reader. Great review though considering you didn't resort to "the Oracle" for your information...
