David Bowie Debut Deluxe Edition Uk Review Blitz

Every magazine on eveery shelf…

The upcoming release of the deluxe version of David Bowie’s debut album seems to have captured the imagination of the UK press.

Most of the music monthlies have given up fair space to generally favourable reviews in the February editions, including full pages in The Word and UNCUT. There are also pieces in MOJO, Record Collector and Shindig!, the latter reviewing both this and the 40th anniversary release of Space Oddity.

There were also full page pieces in The Guardian and The Independent, as well as an initial piece in The Times, all of which can still be read online.

I’ll leave you with a couple of bits from the monthlies, first up is this short Q&A with producer Mike Vernon

Finally, this equally brief Q&A with Ken Pitt from the review in Record Collector.

David Bowie (Deluxe Edition) is released through Universal on January 25th. (12.02.2009 NEWS: DAVID BOWIE 2CD DERAM DELUXE EDITION DUE NEXT YEAR)
