A double-sided lyric sheet showing the changes the late music legend made to 'Rock N Roll Suicide' and 'Suffragette City' from 1972's 'The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars' are set to go under the hammer.

The former track did make it to the LP, and the latter ended up as a B-side for the UK issue of 'Drive In-Saturday' in 1973. The sheets will go on s...

Liam Gallagher's ex-wife thinks their son is a better singer than he is. The former Oasis frontman's 22-year-old offspring Gene is also an aspiring musician and while he tries to keep his songs away from his family, All Saints singer Nicole Appleton thinks he has what it takes to be a star in his own right.
