KyliesChild 16,907 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 David Bowie David Bowie is said to have prepared a number of records to be released posthumously. Among the releases to have surfaced in the two-plus years since his death: an EP of unreleased material called No Plan; an archival box setfeaturing the unreleased album The Gouster; reissues of the Labyrinth and The Man Who Fell to Earth soundtracks; the live album Cracked Actor (Live in Los Angeles 1974); a repressing of 1971’s Bowpromo; a second archival box setchronicling Bowie’s Berlin trilogy; and an early demo version of “Let’s Dance”. There’s apparently plenty more still to unearth from Bowie’s vault, as the coming month will bring upwards of eight new records. Two reissues have already been announced for next month: Bowie’s 1971 compilation ChangestoBowie will go back into print on April 13th, followed on April 20th by a vinyl reissue of Aladdin Sane. Now, comes word of a trio of Bowie records available for Record Store Day 2018 (April 21st). The allotment includes Welcome to the Blackout (Live London ’78) featuring recordings from Bowie’s “Isolar II tour” at London’s Earls Court on June 30th and July 1st, 1978; a 12-inch single that includes the first-full length version of “Let’s Dance”; and Bowie Now, a rare US only promotional-only LP from 1977, which is receiving its first-ever commercial release. There will also be an exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum to celebrate his legacy.

KyliesChild 16,907 Posted March 3, 2018 Author Share Posted March 3, 2018 David Bowie has so many albums that have been released already. He hasn't been necessarily consistent with the quality of his work though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retron 2,605 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Exciting news if it's done right. 6 minutes ago, KyliesChild said: David Bowie has so many albums that have been released already. He hasn't been necessarily consistent with the quality of his work though. Everything from the 70's is rock solid pure gold. After that, some real ups and downs. Blackstar, his newest release, is a serious up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if posthumous releases are great because depending on the artist it is disrespectful. Blackstar is an exception of course since the album revolves around death and he was aware that his passing was coming soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but because their are so many, by the time you take a few songs from each release you still end up with a good amount of songs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
