DAVID BOWIE / space oddity 1969 (40th anniversary)


Space oddity

LINK: spaceoddity

PASSWORD "2000mustangs"


David Bowie’s Space Oddity, produced by Tony Visconti (bar the track "Space Oddity" itself which was produced by the late Gus Dudgeon), was a giant leap forward in terms of songwriting for Bowie compared to his eponymous debut, and can be considered as the first truly essential David Bowie album. Noted for a list of collaborators, including session players Herbie Flowers, Tim Renwick, Terry Cox and Rick Wakeman, the album delves into psychedelic folk-rock, as well as prog, with its genre-defying template creating a blueprint of what would become over the next decade and more, one of the most inimitable British artists. The two-CD digipak contains an extensive booklet featuring rare photographs, memorabilia, sleeve notes and a chronology by Kevin Cann. CD one features the original album remastered from the original analogue masters tapes, whilst CD two features 15 bonus tracks of which eight are previously unreleased, including two ultra-rare demos.
