A pop-up shop opened its doors in the backyards where David Bowie posed as Ziggy Stardust, to celebrate what would have been the music legend’s 75th birthday.

Bowie 75 is in Heddon Street, Mayfair, where the cover of his 1972 album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars was shot.

The store sells limited edition records and will show unreleased behind-the-scenes footage of the Starman star.

It will close in the new year: Bowie would have turned 75 on January 8.

The outlet at 14 Heddon Street in central London also boasts a gallery of photographs and installations that will offer insights into Bowie’s career.

The store is owned by his property and is part of a year-long celebration of the star.

Nile Rodgers, who produced Bowie’s best-selling album Let’s Dance, visited the store earlier and described it as “incredible”.

“This is the first time I’ve seen a swag that I don’t have,” he said.

Speaking of Bowie, he added: “We had the best relationship, the best working relationship I’ve ever had with an artist.

“He had enormous faith in me when we did Let’s Dance. When we did Black Tie White Noise, that was a different time in his life and he was trying to say something different, but he knew he could count on me to follow him. indications.

“I had nothing but good times with him. One of the first holidays I’ve ever taken in my life – I went all the way to Thailand and was mad at my girlfriend and said, ‘man, I won’t know anyone here’ and walked in in a restaurant and I heard ‘hey Nile’ and it’s David Bowie. “

A sister store has also opened in Bowie’s foster home in New York at 150 Wooster Street in SoHo, Manhattan, close to where he lived in his later years and created his latest album Blackstar.

It was recently announced that a Bowie album that was never officially released in his lifetime will be out the day before his birthday.

Toy, recorded in 2001 and leaked online in 2011, will be released in a three-CD box set on January 7th.

Bowie was born as David Robert Jones in Brixton, South London, on January 8, 1947. His family moved to Bromley, then part of Kent, when he was six.
