Hammersmith Odeon, London, July 3, 1973. British singer David Bowie performs his alter ego Ziggy Stardust for the very last time.

This is the definitive independent review of an all time classic album featuring rare interviews with Bowie and the people around him along with classic performances of material from the album.
