Pinups (also referred to as Pin Ups and Pin-Ups) is the seventh studio album by David Bowie, containing cover versions of songs, released in 1973 on RCA Records. Pinups entered the UK chart on 3 November 1973 (coincidentally the same day as Bryan Ferry's covers album These Foolish Things) and stayed there for 21 weeks, peaking at No. 1. It re-entered the chart on 30 April 1983, this time for fifteen weeks, peaking at No. 57. In July 1990, it again entered the chart, for one week, at No. 52.

David Bowie killed Ziggy Stardust’s persona in the last concert of Ziggy Stardust/Aladdin Sane Tour in the Hammersmith Odeon Theater in 1973. Although this persona was dead, you can see some of his personality in this album, Pin Ups, because some guys from the band (The Spiders From Mars) played their respesctive instruments in this LP. The songs that David Bowie used in this albums are not written by him, but by some of the most famous artists from the 64-67 period
Info for PinUps (Remastered). PinUps served as a sort of 'how to' guide to David Bowie's career. This all-covers album shed light on his ability to adopt personas and emulate musical genres with amazing speed and diversity. It also showed that Bowie was anticipating a different musical climate for the rest of the decade, signifying a change from what was admired during the 1960s.
