David Bowie’s ‘Sound + Vision’ box set gets re-released in a slipcased fatpack with 64 page booklet.
A cutting edge musician and artist, icon, entrepreneur, fashion guru, and all round inspiration to several generations, David Bowie remains a unique phenomenon in contemporary culture.
Bowie’s work has won him a vast international audience, yet at the same time his continued thirst for innovation has allowed him to balance worldwide popularity with impeccable credentials as a first grade pioneer right across the arts spectrum. Sound + Vision is a collection spanning four decades, covering the 21 albums from Space Oddity through to Buddha Of Surburbia. It’s a rich survey of David Bowie’s many musical lives offering a generous helping of hits, an intriguing dip into archives, classic album tracks and long lost B-sides, explosive live recordings, soundtrack recordings and remixes.
We are treated to the acoustic demo version of his first hit, ‘Space Oddity’, early in 1969, months before he’d made a name for himself. And we’re there, too, in the 1990s as he revisits his Bromley childhood for the soundtrack to Hanif Kureishi’s ‘Buddha Of Suburbia’.
Between those times, Sound + Vision also documents Bowie’s ever-onward work aesthetic. From Dylan inspired folkie (‘The Wild-Eyed Boy From Freecloud’) to the hard-rocking hero of grunge legends Nirvana (‘The Man Who Sold The World’); from Glam Rock superstar (‘Ziggy Stardust’) to white soul pioneer (‘Young Americans’); electronica trailblazer (‘Warszawa’) to first New Romantic (‘Ashes To Ashes’); dancefloor deity (‘Modern Love’) to high endurance 90s legend (‘Jump They Say’). He’s been there – and back again - often before anyone else has.
