My personal favorite was Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars. It was so esoteric and unlike anything else I had heard...and I was exposed to a lot of classic rock growing up. One of my favorite pasttimes was going through my dad's vinyl collection and listening to music.
Ziggy was in my Walkman numerous times over and over. It always took me to a place of sparkling science fantasy. If I'm honest, that album and reading Douglas Adams colored my perception of scifi more than Jules Verne or Asimov ever did.
Also Heavy Metal magazine. I was a dirty boy, what can I say.
There's a Starman waiting in the sky...and the one who told us about him is off to meet him.
