David Bowie – “WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH)”

To mark what would have been David Bowie’s 77th birthday, Parlophone Records is releasing a very special David Bowie limited vinyl LP, “WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH).”

The album is taken from the Trident Studios 1/4” stereo tapes dated December 15, 1971, which were created for the then provisional tracklisting for what would become “THE RISE AND FALL OF ZIGGY STARDUST AND THE SPIDERS FROM MARS” album. The tracklisting for “WAITING IN THE SKY (BEFORE THE STARMAN CAME TO EARTH)” runs differently from the “ZIGGY STARDUST” album and features four songs that didn’t make the final album.
