Under the moonlight, this serious moonlight…
I’m sure many of you have already seen an Australian version at various online stores, of the Serious Moonlight DVD due next month, and apparently already shipping in some areas.
The Region 0 PAL DVD doesn’t seem quite as complete as the 1999 European version of the Disc, as it omits Cat People (Putting Out Fire).
An accompanying audio CD seems to lose yet another track with the omission of Cracked Actor as well as aforementioned feline/human ditty.
Those of you interested in owning a legit full version of the DVD, without shelling out silly money for either the original 1999 version, or indeed, for DVDs of questionable origin, may be pleased to learn that EMI plan to issue the complete DVD early next year.
Here’s the tracklisting for the film that was shot in September 1983 in Vancouver, during the massively successful Serious Moonlight World Tour…
01 Introduction
02 Look Back In Anger
03 “Heroes”
04 What In The World
05 Golden Years
06 Fashion / Let’s Dance
07 Breaking Glass
08 Life On Mars?
09 Sorrow
10 Cat People (Putting Out Fire)
11 China Girl
12 Scary Monsters
13 Rebel Rebel
14 White Light, White Heat
15 Station To Station
16 Cracked Actor
17 Ashes To Ashes
18 Space Oddity
19 Young Americans
20 Fame
Hopefully the DVD will include the behind-the-scenes Ricochet film as well as other extras that we’ll tell you more about nearer the release date.
BowieNetters not familiar with Ricochet can view a low quality version of the film in eight instalments in the Special Features section of BowieNet. (Log in and click on the BOWIE tab next to the NEWS tab above)
