Japanese release of WCIBN?

 

“Now. Not tomorrow, It’s happening now”

 

The collectors among you that don’t already know about this, might be happy to learn that today (Oct 19) sees the release of the second of David Bowie‘s era box sets: Who Can I Be Now? (1974 – 1976), in Japan.

 

As ever, there’s a limited edition version designed for the Japanese market which includes a few desirable extras. Here’s the description from a popular Japanese CD site:

 

Description

Box Packaging. *Non Japan-made disc. Japanese edition features the followings: a 128-page original booklet featuring talk session, rare photos, production notes, review article on the album, and more / a booklet written in Japanese / a 16-page photo book “GOLDEN YEARS 1973-1976” / a special booklet featuring liner notes coming with the original vinyl release, articles published on magazines, and more / an application card (valid only in Japan).

 

The 16-page photo book GOLDEN YEARS 1973-1976, is a delightful little volume of Geoff MacCormack Bowie pictures, as hinted at in our montage. (Obviously the Box set itself boasts a Steve Schapiro shot.)
