Issue 3 will contain 56-pages due to volume of original submissions (increased from 48) and it'll be even better quality-wise litho printed. They almost have enough great content for issue 4 too.

Artist Helen Green is currently working on the issue 3 cover. If you've not yet got around to seeing this fanzine issues 1 (very limited number) and issue 2 are available at davidbowieglamour.com - the feedback from those who have already bought the first two issues are genuinely blown away by the design, cover and content.

IMAN TALKS ABOUT DAVID AND HER LIFE IN VOGUE
22nd August 2017

IMAN on DAVID BOWIE's Legacy and Her Life in Vogue in the September issue of VOGUE magazine.

Extract: Iman: Some months ago, the stars demanded David's presence. We surrendered a husband, a father, a father-in-law, a friend, a mentor, and all the nameless daily ecstasies that occur between people who love one another. The outpouring of grief over David's passing has helped me tremendously, though sometimes I've been at odds with it, too: Universal grieving for your life partner can also keenly deepen your own sense of all that you've lost. David gave me the most exciting, touching, and deliriously loving 24 years. Still, it was not enough - shockingly brief. And although I'll never get used to losing him, David is nonetheless hiding in plain sight. We have our beautiful daughter, Lexi, now seventeen; a year ago, David's son, Duncan, and his wife, Rodene, gave birth to a son, Stenton; my daughter Zulekha and her husband, Jason, will bless us with a baby this summer. With this burgeoning family, I've added a new title to my list: Nana. So I'm Mom and Nana now, while striving to live up to my name in spirit and example; to have iman; to always have faith. As for David, I have perfect iman that we'll be together again. Love doesn't cease; love reshapes.

TV HAS HIS SAY
21st August 2017

After some ill-formed comments and posts by certain members on the BW Message Board concerning the new remix of DAVID BOWIE's Lodger album featured in the forthcoming A NEW CAREER IN A NEW TOWN (1977 - 1982) Boxed Set released next month, TONY VISCONTI responded on his Facebook page...

Bowiewonderworld post:

David Bowie 'A New Career In A New Town (1977 - 1982) Box Set "Are any of my FB friends active in the above Bowie group? There seems to be a lot of erroneous and egregious comments about the remix of Lodger. For the record, remixing began in the middle of 2015, never before. It has been well documented that David and I always wanted to remix Lodger but there never seemed to be a good time to do that. In 2015 we were making Blackstar together and David was also busy with his musical Lazarus. There were short periods when David wasn't in the studio, yet I was in a high state of creativity. I opened up Fantastic Voyage and started to mix it and after a few hours I left it in a better state than I had found it (I did more tweaking later on). A few weeks later I tackled African Night Flight and Move On. Then I knew this album could sound great. After I had mixed Yassassin and Red Sails I surprised David with the results. He was extremely pleased and gave me the green light to finish mixing the entire album. Because we were still working on Blackstar that year I never got a chance to complete it until later in 2016 due to my other production commitments and Holy Holy tours. There you have it from me."

He also went on to respond to another post in the same thread: "It's not remixed like a DJ mix. It just sounds WAY better, more depth, more clarity, more definition and more David. You can hear all of the drum fills that were buried in the original mix lots of other tasty licks that were also a bit buried."

(Ed. Thanks for the clarification Tony. I don't understand why people can't wait for the Box Set liner notes which explain it all thoroughly, or at least have bothered to read the recent interview with TV in Uncut magazine before making assumptions when posting).

Right to reply: 'DAVID BOWIE's Bromley school wasn't so bad, Mr. Kureishi' - [Read here]...

(Ed. for the record... On 19th May 1958, David received the results from the Kent Education Committee as to which secondary education would be best suited. David was offered a place at Grammar school or a Technical school of his choice. David preferred the Tech because of its art course, although his father felt it would be more realistic that David receive a 'proper' education at Grammar school. Appointments were made to visit both the Bromley Grammar School and at Bromley Technical High School. Fortunately for David, his father hated the atmosphere of the grammar school and really liked the "modern" feel of the Tech, so David got his preferred choice of secondary education)...

WHEN ZIGGY PLAYED THE MARQUEE
11th August 2017

When Ziggy Played The Marquee by Terry O'Neill Update: New cover and publication date... New book scheduled for publication next month is WHEN ZIGGY PLAYED THE MARQUEE: David Bowie's Last Performance as Ziggy Stardust by TERRY O'NEILL.

When Ziggy played The Marquee Club in Soho, London, in October 1973, most of those invited to the small venue did not realise that this would be the last performance David Bowie would ever give as Ziggy Stardust. Terry O'Neill, celebrated photographer, was given unprecedented access to document the event. O'Neill captured Bowie and his crew backstage as they went through costume changes, and Bowie transformed into the character he'd soon put to rest. On stage, dodging television cameras and lights, O'Neill snapped the incredible stage presence for which Bowie and his crew had become renowned. O'Neill remembers of Bowie: "He became a character on stage. As much as a person takes a role in a play for the West End or on Broadway, learning the lines, putting on the costumes - this was, I think, the way Bowie treated his stage. This night at the Marquee, I witnessed a modern-day Hamlet - and it was Ziggy Stardust". Foreword by Gary Kemp.

       - Hardcover.
       - 208 pages.
       - Publisher: ACC Art Books.
       - Date: 14th September.
       - Foreword: Gary Kemp.

About the Author: Terry O'Neill has had a star-studded career. He has been in the business of capturing the most iconic, candid, and unguarded moments of the famous and infamous for six decades. His reportage photography chronicled the evolution of fashion in the postwar era, and later the emergence of bands such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and The Animals, and icons like David Bowie and Elton John. He has been photographer-of-choice for a multitude of celebrities, from Frank Sinatra and Audrey Hepburn to Raquel Welch and Paul Newman, and remains the only photographer to have captured shots not only of every James Bond to date, but also more than 25 Bond girls and a staggering 150 Oscar-nominated actors and actresses. O'Neill was awarded with the Royal Society of Arts' highest honour, the Centenary Medal, in 2012.

You can pre-order When Ziggy Played the Marquee which is now scheduled for publication on 14th September.

DAVID BOWIE - 'A NEW CAREER IN A NEW TOWN (1977 - 1982)'

THE THIRD IN A SERIES OF DAVID BOWIE BOX SETS - RELEASED 29th SEPTEMBER 2017

CD, DIGITAL* AND AUDIOPHILE VINYL BOX SETS EXCLUSIVELY FEATURE 'LODGER' (TONY VISCONTI 2017 MIX)

'BEAUTY AND THE BEAST' (EXTENDED VERSION) AVAILABLE NOW AS AN INSTANT GRAT TRACK - PREVOUSLY UNAVAILABLE ON DIGITAL / CD


David Bowie 'A New Career In A New Town (1977 - 1982) Box Set Parlophone Records are proud to announce DAVID BOWIE 'A NEW CAREER IN A NEW TOWN (1977 - 1982)' the third in a series of box sets spanning Bowie's career from 1969.

The follow-up to the awarding winning and critically acclaimed DAVID BOWIE 'FIVE YEARS (1969 - 1973)' and DAVID BOWIE 'WHO CAN I BE NOW? (1974 - 1976)' will be released on 29th September and will contain a brand new remix of the 1979 album 'LODGER' by long time Bowie producer/collaborator Tony Visconti.

The eleven CD box, thirteen-piece vinyl set and the Mastered For iTunes and standard digital download sets feature material officially released by Bowie between 1977 and 1982. It includes the so-called 'Berlin Trilogy' of albums on which he collaborated with Visconti and Brian Eno, and is completed by 'SCARY MONSTERS (And Super Creeps)'.

The box set, named after the final track on side one of 'LOW', includes 'LOW', '"HEROES"', 'STAGE' (ORIGINAL and 2017 VERSIONS), 'LODGER', 'LODGER (Tony Visconti 2017 Mix)', 'SCARY MONSTERS (And Super Creeps)' and 'RE:CALL 3'. Finally we have the '"HEROES"' E.P., which rounds up the German and French album and single versions of the track in one place for the first time, a compilation exclusive to the set celebrating the 40th anniversary of the song.

In the vinyl version of the box the original 'STAGE' will be pressed on yellow vinyl, replicating the limited edition U.K. release of the time. The 2017 version of 'STAGE' features two previously unreleased tracks.

Exclusive to each of the box sets is 'LODGER (Tony Visconti 2017 Mix)'. The remix was started with David's blessing before his passing in January last year. Tony Visconti has revisited the original multi-tracks at Human Studios and remixed the album with the benefit of modern technology to better highlight the album's nuances. Always a personal favourite of David's, this version of the album will also feature newly 'remixed' artwork featuring unseen images from the original cover photographic session from the archive of the Estate of photographer Duffy, working closely with his son Chris.

Also exclusive to each box is 'Re:Call 3', a new compilation featuring remastered contemporary single versions, non-album singles and b-sides, and songs featured on soundtracks. The cover features a photo by Christian Simonpietri taken at Hansa Studios in Berlin during the '"Heroes"' sessions in 1977. The 'Baal' E.P. in its entirety is making its CD debut while 'Beauty And The Beast' (extended version) and 'Breaking Glass' (Australian single version) are making their debuts on CD and digital formats.

'Beauty And The Beast' (extended version) is available as a digital download upon pre-order of the box set. This version of the '"Heroes"' album track is making its digital and CD debut having previously only been available on a rare US promo 12" and as a limited 12" release in Spain.

The physical box set's accompanying book, 128 pages in the CD box and 84 in the vinyl set, will feature rarely seen and previously unpublished photos by photographers including Anton Corbijn, Helmut Newton, Andrew Kent, Steve Schapiro, Duffy and many others as well as historical press reviews and technical notes about the albums from producer Tony Visconti.

The CD box set will include faithfully reproduced mini-vinyl versions of the original albums, and the CDs will be gold coloured rather than the usual silver. The vinyl box set has the same content as the CD set and is pressed on audiophile quality 180g vinyl.

*A New Career In A New Town (1977-1982) will also be made available in High Definition audio digital formats (192kHZ/24bit and 96kHZ/24bit). Content varies from other formats due to the resolution of the available original source material.

BOWIE COLLECTORS BIBLE GETS SPECIAL TREATMENT
1st August 2017

David Bowie World 7" Records Discography 1964-1981 book David Bowie World 7" Records Discography 1964-1981 book

Swiss company ATHERIS LABORATORIES are sponsoring and publishing an updated special deluxe edition of DAVID BOWIE WORLD 7" RECORDS DISCOGRAPHY 1964 - 1981 book by MARSHALL JARMAN and RETO STÖCKLIN.

The original 1994 much-in-demand Bowie collectors biblical discography has now finally got a complete makeover with this one-off special limited deluxe edition due this month.

- Addendums with dozens of records that weren't featured in the first edition, including many never seen before acetates.
- Most records now photographed in COLOUR.
- 1st printing in a strictly limited deluxe edition.
- A4, 180 pages, hard cover, gloss finish plus jacket, heavy 180g gloss paper.

Each copy will be numbered and signed by the authors with a personalised dedication.

The ONLY way to obtain this special limited deluxe edition is via a special gift deal from MATOXINE - the makers of 'Instant Moonlight' - a revolutionary new cosmetic range developed from the venom of the David Bowie spider.

You will also receive a unique deluxe box, on the cover of which the Instant Moonlight' logo is replaced by a picture of the label of the holy grail David Bowie 7" original acetate of 'Liza Jane', the first David Bowie ever from 1964. The box is also designed to store 7" records.

The box will contain one click-pen of 'Instant Moonlight' plus platinum with applicator and one instant moonlight gold dispenser, for woman or man. Ideal for the handbag or travelling.

To snap up one of the remaining copies please visit indiegogo.com and scroll down to $75 USD - collector's box with 7" book option - where you can order the book now by clicking on the pink 'GET THIS PERK' button.

(Ed. If you are wondering why the company is sponsoring this book, it's because the President and CEO Doctor Reto Stöcklin is a HUGE long-time Bowie fan and collector).
