David Bowie (commonly known as Space Oddity)[a] is the second studio album by the English musician David Bowie, originally released in the United Kingdom on 14 November 1969 through Mercury affiliate Philips Records. Financed by Mercury on the strength of "Space Oddity", the album was recorded from June to October 1969 at Trident Studios in London. Gus Dudgeon produced "Space Oddity", while Tony Visconti produced the rest of the album. It featured an array of collaborators, including Herbie Flowers, Rick Wakeman, Terry Cox and the band Junior's Eyes.
The vinyl disc is superb /EX !! With literally only a few tiny hairline marks (absolutely nothing feelable!!) With a few specs of discolouration to the label / spindle hole.
Comes with the original inner protective sleeve (with patent number.)
The outer cover could be better, with age related wear /discolouration to edges and corners and a split on the bottom seam.
OVERALL A STUNNINGLY RARE FIND / AN ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION!!
Will package securely and post via next day special delivery.
