Mercury Demos

This deluxe Mercury Demos set comes in a replica of the original tape box. It includes one LP with song titles in David Bowie's own handwriting, featuring the same EMIDISC acetate styling as other demos. You'll also get a print, two photo contact sheets, and sleeve notes by Mark Adams. These ten early Bowie recordings were captured live in one take on a Revox reel - to - reel tape machine in his flat in spring 1969, with John 'Hutch' Hutchinson on guitar and vocals. David Bowie's music here has a deeper dynamic, offering an extraordinary world of unique sounds and endless vision.

To enjoy this Mercury Demos set, simply play the LP on a suitable record player. Make sure the player is clean and well - maintained to get the best sound quality. When handling the LP, hold it by the edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches. Keep the print, photo contact sheets, and sleeve notes in a dry and cool place to prevent damage. Don't expose them to direct sunlight for long periods. If you want to display the print or photos, use a proper frame. For the LP, store it vertically in a record rack to prevent warping.
