Description
The first picture with this listing is not a picture of the items I have for sale. Both the single and the album are sealed, and I find it very difficult to make good pictures of sealed records. Also with a sealed record I cannot show the color of the Vinyl. Pictures 2-5 are pictures of my items.
A limited edition pressing of David Bowie’s Man Of Words/Man Of Music album is issued on BLUE vinyl, alongside classic versions of Amsterdam and My Death as a limited edition ORANGE vinyl 7" single. The records are being released via Parlophone to celebrate the exhibition 'David Bowie is' at the Groninger Museum, the Netherlands, on December 11th, 2015. The records are exclusive to the exhibition and not for sale elsewhere.
Man Of Words/Man Of Music was the US version of the 1969 David Bowie album on Mercury, aka Space Oddity.
Amsterdam is Bowie’s 1971 cover of the Jacques Brel song (with lyrics translated to English by Mort Shuman). Produced by David Bowie and Ken Scott, the track was originally recorded during the early sessions for the Ziggy Stardust album at Trident Studios, in London. It was eventually released as the B-side of the Sorrow single in October, 1973.Despite the simple arrangement of Bowie’s vocal and Mick Ronson’s acoustic guitar, it’s a thrilling version of the song. The recording of My Death (Brel/Blau/Shuman) on the B-side, was recorded live at Carnegie Hall, in New York on September 28th, 1972. Both Amsterdam and My Death were popular performances during live Ziggy shows.
