If I could control tomorrow’s haze…
As I’m sure the majority of you understand and are bored of hearing, we don’t like to announce any upcoming Bowie product until we have a firm release date.
This is so that we can avoid any grumbles if that date is rescheduled, as is sometimes the case and is perfectly normal procedure.
The EMI issue of Santa Monica, (David Bowie’s live recording from October 20th, 1972) is no secret to anyone as it was first hinted at with last year’s Target CD wherein a version of The Jean Genie from the show was included. (09.12.2007 NEWS: TARGET RELEASE BOWIE CD TO MARK NEW DUFFTY RANGE)
However, release dates as early as April and May are being bandied about, when the truth is that there is no firm date yet and it’s unlikely you’ll see Santa Monica before June.
Hopefully you’ll agree it will have been worth the wait, as EMI are planning a delicious package for this release.
I won’t spoil the surprise with details just yet, suffice to say the limited edition will be a one-off run with no repress and a vinyl version will also be made available.
