Get your hands on David Bowie - A New Career In A New Town Vinyl Box Set by Parlophone Records, the third in a series of box sets spanning Bowie’s career from 1969.

Introducing the extraordinary thirteen-piece vinyl box set, which showcases a remarkable collection of music officially released by the legendary David Bowie between 1977 and 1982. This captivating compilation includes the renowned 'Berlin Trilogy' albums, where Bowie collaborated with Tony Visconti and Brian Eno, along with the iconic 'Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)'.

Named after the closing track on side one of the groundbreaking album 'Low', this box set encompasses a comprehensive selection of Bowie's work, featuring 'Low', '"Heroes"', 'Stage' (both the original and 2017 versions), 'Lodger', 'Lodger (Tony Visconti 2017 Mix)', 'Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)', and 'Re:Call 3'. Notably, the '“Heroes”' E.P. has been exclusively curated for this set, bringing together German and French album and single versions of the track for the first time, and commemorating the 40th anniversary of this iconic song. In the vinyl edition of the box set, the original 'Stage' album will be pressed on vibrant yellow vinyl, replicating the limited edition release from the time. The 2017 version of 'Stage' includes two previously unreleased tracks, adding to the excitement and exclusivity of this edition.

One of the box set's standout features is the inclusion of the highly anticipated 'Lodger (Tony Visconti 2017 Mix)', a remix that was initiated with David Bowie's blessing before his untimely passing in January of the previous year. Tony Visconti, the renowned producer, has revisited the original multi-tracks at Human Studios and skillfully remixed the album, utilizing modern technology to bring forth its nuanced brilliance. This special version of 'Lodger' also presents newly remixed artwork, showcasing previously unseen images from the original cover photographic session, drawn from the archive of photographer Duffy and curated closely with his son Chris. This edition holds significant personal significance as it was always one of David Bowie's favorites.

Adding to the exclusivity of the box set is 'Re:Call 3', a unique compilation featuring remastered contemporary single versions, non-album singles, b-sides, and tracks featured on soundtracks. The cover of this compilation features a captivating photograph taken by Christian Simonpietri during the '“Heroes”' sessions in 1977 at Hansa Studios in Berlin. Additionally, the complete 'Baal' E.P., previously unavailable on CD, is making its debut, while 'Beauty and the Beast' (extended version) and 'Breaking Glass' (Australian single version) are making their first-ever appearances on CD and digital formats.
