David Bowie‘s Bowie At The Beeb collection is to be released as a four-disc vinyl box set. It was previously released on CD in 2000.
This is the debut of the Best Of David’s Bowie’s BBC radio sessions from 1968 – 1972 on vinyl. The set comes in a lift off lid box and features a full colour 20 page booklet.
This vinyl version features “Oh! You Pretty Things” from a Sounds Of The 70’s: Bob Harris session broadcast in September 1971 which was previously exclusive to the Japanese release of the CD. This performance features just Bowie and Mick Ronson as a duo.
Completely exclusive to the set, and therefore making it’s debut, is the once lost “The Supermen” from Sounds Of The 70’s: Andy Ferris session broadcast in March, 1970 and performed by The Hype.
This recording was only re-discovered during the research for the original CD set and remained unreleased until now.
