'''''The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars''''' (often shortened to '''''Ziggy Stardust'''''{{sfn|Perone|2007|p=162}}) is the fifth studio album by English musician [[David Bowie]], released on 16 June 1972 in the UK by [[RCA Records]]. It was co-produced by Bowie and [[Ken Scott]] and features Bowie's backing band [[the Spiders from Mars]], comprising [[Mick Ronson]], [[Trevor Bolder]] and [[Mick Woodmansey]]. Most of the songs were written around the same time as Bowie's previous album ''[[Hunky Dory]]'' (1971). After that album was completed, recording for ''Ziggy Stardust'' commenced in November 1971 at [[Trident Studios]] in London, with further sessions in early February 1972.
