David Bowie moves the spotlight away from his own material and onto 1960s rock and R&B covers on 1973's Pin Ups. The acclaimed album, his last with key collaborator and guitarist Mick Ronson as well as producer Ken Scott, showcases his uncanny ability to adopt different personas and musical genres with ease. Pin Ups finds Bowie embracing the shift that was taking place in the musical climate at the time and marks a transition in his approach to performing. Includes takes on material by the Pretty Things, Them, Yardbirds, Pink Floyd, the Who, and the Kinks, among others.
