Grown inside a card box…
Had a couple of e-mails regarding the above 10-track promo that is starting to surface. It’s described on the reverse as: “Highlights from the forthcoming limited edition boxset – David Bowie 88697169032. Five original albums all with bonus discs, including previously unreleased tracks and rarities packaged in unique vinyl replica sleeves – released November 2007”. All good, except that date has now moved to December 3rd
We first hinted at this release after we published details of the Japanese version many moons ago, (
With the knowledge that “shortly thereafter” is relative, you’ll be pleased to know that we’ll be finally publishing the winners of that contest during the first weekend of December.
I’m sure we’ll have a contest in the very near/distant future to win copies of this new European/American version, but in the meantime, here’s the tracklisting for the above promo…
Finally, I’ll leave you with a reminder of the 121 tracks that make up the ten discs in the box.
