David Bowie's classic The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars has been named as his best album of all time in a poll voted for by fans.
The seminal 1972 album came in ahead of the Berlin Trilogy's Low and the hugely successful Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) to claim the top spot in a poll voted for by Gigwise readers.
Ziggy Stardust was the album that saw Bowie first transformed from cult hero into an international superstar icon, adopting the persona of an alien rockstar who crash-landed on Earth. The album features classics such as the title track, 'Suffragette City', 'Five Years', 'Hang On To Yourself' and 'Rock N' Roll Suicide'.
