The soundtrack album to Moonage Daydream features songs from spanning Bowie’s career and includes previously unheard material, unique mixes created for the film and this release along with dialogue from Bowie himself. It will be available digitally on 16 September; on 2CD on 18 November, with a 3LP edition to follow in 2023.
The David Bowie soundtrack includes a previously unreleased live medley of The Jean Genie / Love Me Do / The Jean Genie’ recorded live at the final Ziggy Stardust concert at Hammersmith Odeon in 1973, featuring Jeff Beck on guitar. Other rarities include an early version of the Hunky Dory favourite Quicksand and a previously unreleased live version of Rock ’n’ Roll With Me from the legendary 1974 ’Soul Tour’.
The first track to be released is Modern Love (Moonage Daydream Mix), one of Bowie’s biggest and best-loved worldwide hits. This version is a unique mix starting with the isolated piano motif from the track, building up into the chorus before ending on the a cappella backing vocals offering an insight into the individual elements that create the classic we all know and love.
