Artist: David Bowie with John ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson
Title: ‘The Mercury Demos’
Label: Parlophone
Barcode: 0190295519155
Year: 2019
Format: the ‘Mercury' Demos features 10 early Bowie recordings captured live in one take to a Revox reel to reel tape machine in David’s flat in spring 1969 (with accompaniment from John ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson on guitar and vocals). The version of Space Oddity, originally released with edits on the Sound & Vision boxset, is presented here in its original context for the first time. The other nine recordings on the album are all previously unreleased. In addition to Bowie originals, the session also includes the Roger Bunn composition Life Is A Circus and the Lesley Duncan composition Love Song. David’s own Conversation Piece is announced as ‘a new song’ and Janine features a short nineteen second section sung to the melody of The Beatles’ Hey Jude.
The ‘Mercury' Demos comes in a replica of the original tape box and features 1 LP, a print, two photo contact sheets, and sleeve notes by Mark Adams.
