David Bowie released his fourth album, "Hunky Dory", today in 1971. The album was the second in a terrific four album run that included "The Man Who Sold the World", "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust" and "Aladdin Sane".

The album was heavily influenced by Bowie's exposure for the first time to the United States. There are tips of the cap to American icons like Bob Dylan, Lou Reed and Andy Warhol.

"Hunky Dory" also features excellent guitar work from Mick Ronson and keyboard work from Rick Wakeman from my favorite band, Yes.
