Pinups was originally released on 19th October 1973 - a mere six months after the legendary Aladdin Sane, and three months after the infamous final Ziggy Stardust show at Hammersmith Odeon, where he put the Ziggy persona to rest along with The Spiders From Mars. Recorded at Château d’Hérouville in France, where Bowie would later return to record the masterpiece Low, Pinups was a collection of cover songs paying tribute to bands and artists that had inspired him and that he had seen at clubs such as The Marquee in London in the mid to late 60s. Artists he covered for the album included The Yardbirds, The Kinks, Pink Floyd, The Who, Pretty Things, The Easybeats and more.
