40th Anniversary Special Edition of David Bowie’s ‘Space Oddity’ on double CD, digital download and 180 gram heavyweight vinyl.
The album, produced by Tony Visconti (bar ‘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 2-CD version will be released in a digipak with an extensive booklet featuring rare photographs, memorabilia, and will feature sleeve notes and a chronology by Kevin Cann. CD 1 features the original album remastered from the original analogue masters tapes, whilst CD 2 features 15 bonus tracks of which eight are previously unreleased, including two ultra-rare demos.
