The Collection Out Tomorrow…competition Today

I heard Sweet Thing, Soul Love, favourite melodies…

The EMI Gold David Bowie – The Collection CD that I’ve been carping on about for a couple of months, (03.04.05 NEWS: DAVID BOWIE – THE COLLECTION, DUE NEXT MONTH & 03.17.05 NEWS: EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK AT DAVID BOWIE – THE COLLECTION & 03.22.05 NEWS: DAVID BOWIE – THE COLLECTION DELAYED UNTIL MAY) will finally be looking for shelf space from tomorrow morning among the homes of those Bowie fans wanting to delve a little deeper than the Best Of Bowie…and why not? It’s a jolly impressive starting point.

Here’s the tracklisting again for those of you that haven’t read it yet and to help with the competition directly afterwards…

For those of you who would like to win a copy of David Bowie – The Collection (remembering this competition is really aimed at new fans, though any BowieNetter can enter if they so wish) simply tell me which studio album between Space Oddity and Scary Monsters isn’t represented by any track on The Collection…possibly because there are no original David Bowie compositions on the particular album I’m referring to.

Once you’ve decided which album title I’m after, send it to me at TotalBlamBlam@davidbowie.com with a subject line of “Here’s the name of the album that has Twiggy and Ziggy on the front”.

Usual rules: (Sorry, I’m obliged to reiterate this guff every time I post a contest) Only one entry per BowieNet account. Please remember to enter using your BowieNet e-mail or at least supply your BowieNet user name. It may also speed things up for you if you include your real name and address, as we won’t then have to wait for another e-mail from you in the event you are a winner.
