Jedna z největších osobnostní světové hudby, proslulý hudební chameleon a průkopník hned několika hudebních směrů. Za svůj život vydal tento britský umělec rovných dvacet pět alb, z nichž velká část se zařadila do zlatého fondu populární hudby a ovlivnila hned několik generací hudebníků z několika hudebních žánrů. Své poslední album Black Star David Bowie vydal 8. ledna 2016 v den svých šedesátých devátých narozenin a pouhé dva dny před svou smrtí.
Speciální box set pěti CD, který sleduje raný vývoj tvorby Davida Bowieho v letech 1968 a 1969 prostřednictvím jeho demosnímků, záznamů vystoupení pro BBC či studiové nahrávky s kytaristou Johnem 'Hutch' Hutchinsonem. Sbírka je současně oslavou 50. výročí vydání singlu Space Oddity a stejnojmenného druhého alba.
