David Bowie

Parlophone offers a soundtrack to director Brett Morgen's highly-anticipated documentary about David Bowie.  Available digitally the same weekend as the movie (September 16) with a November 18 release on two CDs (and a 2023 bow on triple vinyl), the Moonage Daydream companion album boasts 43 tracks: new mixes of familiar material and deep cuts alike, fragments of Bowie's narration and even a handful of unreleased works. Among the centerpieces being heard for the first time is a live medley of "The Jean Genie" and The Beatles' "Love Me Do," performed with Jeff Beck on guitar during the incendiary set that saw Bowie announce the retirement of his Ziggy Stardust persona.​
