| “Changes,” from the album Hunky Dory, was released in 1972, the year when Bowie first toured the United States. Musically, he synthesized elements of 1960s rock with the evolving genre of art-rock. His theatrical performances, which featured convention-bending images and elaborate stage effects, made him one of the most popular rock stars of 1970s. His subsequent album, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, was one of the first concept albums, a format in which each song contributes to a central theme. |
