In New York, at the SAG HARBOR CINEMA there is to be a special 35mm screening of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars on Sunday 16th January.

The screening is followed by a Q&A with filmmakers Chris Hegedus, Frazer Pennebaker, Nick Doob and Founding Artistic Director, Giulia D'Agnolo Vallan.

As worldwide celebrations mark what would have been DAVID BOWIE's 75th birthday (January 8th), Sag Harbor Cinema hosts a rare screening of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars, D.A. Pennebaker's film of David Bowie's legendary final performance as Ziggy Stardust, held at the Hammersmith Odeon on July 3, 1973.

Part of the yearlong retrospective created by the Cinema to celebrate the work of D.A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus, the special screening will offer the audience an exclusive opportunity to see the film in a 35mm print from the filmmakers' personal collection.

David Bowie's final electrifying performance as Ziggy Stardust in 1973 at London's Hammersmith Odeon Theatre. The feature length film captures the aura surrounding one of the most unusual stars of the contemporary music scene.

Framed by a smattering of behind-the-scenes footage, the bulk of the film concerns the actual concert, notable as the final time that Bowie would perform under the Ziggy Stardust persona, an announcement that, at the time, led many fans to mistakenly believe Bowie was retiring altogether.

Venue: 90 Main Street, Sag Harbor 11963, New York.

Today is also BowieWonderworld's birthday - now twenty-five years online!

Thank you to everyone who helps support the site - it is appreciated more than you'll ever know :)

For those not aware, this web site was first set up as a 50th birthday present for David.

It started life as Little Wonder, then Little Wonderworld on Virgin Net Freespace. The website name was taken from the name of his secret gig at the Hanover Grand, London back in 1997.

I originally wanted the website name BowieWorld, but David and Ultrastar also wanted that name for a special virtual 3D chatroom BowieWorld he was about to launch. I obviously gave in and promised not to register it, and let them do their thing.

They never registered that domain name as it became part of Worlds.com in the end (and neither did I, keeping my promise). Eventually a Bowie fan in New Zealand did register it and put up some fan pages.

I patiently waited for the bowieworld.com site to close, and for the domain name to become available again and then claimed it in 2012.

I don't know why I registered it, I've done nothing with it yet. Let's just put it down to sentimental reasons.

Heads up... streaming soon is Atomic Sunrise Festival featuring DAVID BOWIE+HYPE, Genesis and Hawkwind filmed at The Roundhouse in London on 9th-15th March 1970.

Released today is DAVID BOWIE TOY:BOX which is available as a three CD set and six 10" Vinyl formats.

TOY:BOX is a special edition of the unreleased TOY album. The 'capture the moment' approach of the recording sessions are extended to the sleeve artwork designed by Bowie featuring a photo of him as a baby with a contemporary face. The package also contains a 16-page full-colour book featuring previously unseen photographs by Frank Ockenfels 3. TOY was recorded following David's Glastonbury 2000 performance. Bowie entered the studio with his band to record new interpretations of songs he'd first recorded from 1964-1971. The plan was to record the album 'old school' with the band playing live, choose the best takes and then release it as soon as humanly possible. Unfortunately, in 2001 the concept of the 'surprise drop' album release and the technology to support it were still quite a few years off, making it impossible to release TOY at the time.

Included in TOY:BOX is a second CD/set of 10"s of alternative mixes and versions including proposed B-Sides (versions of David's debut single 'Liza Jane' and 1967's 'In The Heat Of The Morning'), later mixes by Tony Visconti and the 'Tibet Version' of 'Silly Boy Blue' recorded at The Looking Glass Studio at the time of the 2001 Tibet House show in New York featuring Philip Glass on piano and Moby on guitar.

The third CD/set of 10"s features 'Unplugged & Somewhat Slightly Electric' mixes of thirteen TOY tracks. Producer Mark Plati "While we were recording the basic tracks Earl Slick suggested that he and I overdub acoustic guitars on all the songs. He said this was a Keith Richards' trick, sometimes these guitars would be a featured part of the track, and at other times they'd be more subliminal. Later while mixing, David heard one of the songs broken down to just vocals and acoustic guitars; this gave him the idea that we ought to do some stripped-down mixes like that and that maybe one day they'd be useful. Once we put a couple of other elements in the pot, it felt like it could be a completely different record. I was only too happy to finish that thought some two decades after the fact."

The Toy:Box 3-CD and Toy:Box six-10" Vinyl are both available to purchase now!

Also released today is the Hunky Dory Limited Edition 50th Anniversary Vinyl Picture Disc which can also be purchased now.

Check out the official DAVID BOWIE lyric video for Shadow Man (Unplugged & Somewhat Slightly Electric Mix).

Tomorrow (7th January) sees the next streaming single release on ISO Records via Parlophone - 'Shadow Man (Unplugged & Somewhat Slightly Electric Mix)' / 'Shadow Man (Early Version)' TOY 2 (TOY 2A).

ISO Records/Parlophone Records are proud to announce the release of SHADOW MAN (UNPLUGGED & SOMEWHAT SLIGHTLY ELECTRIC MIX), which is a stripped-down mix of a re-recording of a song David Bowie initially recorded in late 1970. SHADOW MAN appears on the album TOY, which features in the DAVID BOWIE 5. BRILLIANT ADVENTURE (1992-2001) boxset and the Unplugged & Somewhat Slightly Electric Mix is on CD3/10" #2 in the TOY (TOY:BOX) boxsets which are both available from 7th January.

The 'unplugged' studio recording is coupled with an early studio demo version recorded in the closing months of 1970 - not recorded during the Ziggy Stardust album sessions as often stated, and is exclusive to this single.

Bowie initially recorded SHADOW MAN in late 1970, once more in Autumn 1971 and then thirty years later for the legendary 'lost' album TOY. The song finally saw the light of day in 2002 on singles from the album HEATHEN and again on the NOTHING HAS CHANGED compilation in 2014.

TOY was recorded following David's triumphant Glastonbury 2000 performance. Bowie entered the studio with his band, Mark Plati, Sterling Campbell, Gail Ann Dorsey, Earl Slick, Mike Garson, Holly Palmer and Emm Gryner, to record new interpretations of songs he'd first recorded from 1964-1971. David planned to record the album 'old school' with the band playing live, choose the best takes and then release it as soon as humanly possible in a remarkably prescient manner. Unfortunately, in 2001 the concept of the 'surprise drop' album release and the technology to support it were still quite a few years off, making it impossible to release TOY, as the album was now named, out to fans as instantly as David wanted. In the interim, David did what he did best; he moved on to something new, which began with a handful of new songs from the same sessions and ultimately became the album HEATHEN, released in 2002 and now acknowledged as one of his finest moments.

The third CD/set of 10"s features 'Unplugged & Somewhat Slightly Electric' mixes of thirteen TOY tracks. Producer Mark Plati: "While we were recording the basic tracks Earl Slick suggested that he and I overdub acoustic guitars on all the songs. He said this was a Keith Richards' trick, sometimes these guitars would be a featured part of the track, and at other times they'd be more subliminal. Later while mixing, David heard one of the songs broken down to just vocals and acoustic guitars; this gave him the idea that we ought to do some stripped-down mixes like that and that maybe one day they'd be useful."

Available in 3CD or 6x10" vinyl formats, TOY (TOY:BOX) is a special edition of the TOY album. The 'capture the moment' approach of the recording sessions are extended to the sleeve artwork designed by Bowie featuring a photo of him as a baby with a contemporary face. The package also contains a 16-page full-colour book featuring previously unseen photographs by Frank Ockenfels 3.

Included in TOY:BOX is a second CD/set of 10"s of alternative mixes and versions including proposed B-Sides (versions of David's debut single 'Liza Jane' and 1967's 'In The Heat Of The Morning'), later mixes by Tony Visconti and the 'Tibet Version' of 'Silly Boy Blue' recorded at The Looking Glass Studio at the time of the 2001 Tibet House show in New York featuring Philip Glass on piano and Moby on guitar. The third CD/set of 10"s features the aforementioned 'Unplugged & Somewhat Slightly Electric' mixes of thirteen TOY tracks.

DAVID BOWIE Estate Sells His Publishing Catalogue to Warner Chappell - Variety exclusive.

After months of negotiations, David Bowie's estate has sold the singer's formidable publishing catalogue to Warner Chappell Music for a price upwards of $250 million, sources confirm to Variety. The catalogue spans six decades.

The agreement comprises songs from the 26 David Bowie studio albums released during his lifetime, as well as the posthumous studio album release, 'Toy', which comes out on Friday. It also includes the two studio albums from Tin Machine, along with tracks released as singles from soundtracks and other projects.

The deal brings nearly all of Bowie's music into the Warner system. Last September, the estate announced a global partnership with Warner Music that will bring the late artist's vast recorded-music catalogue from 1968 through 2016 under the company's umbrella; the deal includes Bowie's albums from 2000 through 2016, which were originally released via Sony Music. News that Bowie's estate was in negotiations to sell his publishing was broken by Financial Times in October.

The announcement comes amid the 'Bowie 75' celebration, surrounding the late singer's 75th birthday on Saturday, January 8th. The campaign also includes pop-up stores in New York and London and the release in November of the 'Brilliant Adventure (1992-2001)' boxed set and, on Friday, his previously unreleased 'Toy' album, comprising re-recorded versions of relatively obscure songs dating from early in his career; while that album is available as part of the boxed set, it will be released separately on Friday.

In a statement confirming the news on Monday, Warner Chappell Music Co-Chair and CEO Guy Moot said: "All of us at Warner Chappell are immensely proud that the David Bowie estate has chosen us to be the caretakers of one of the most groundbreaking, influential, and enduring catalogues in music history. These are not only extraordinary songs, but milestones that have changed the course of modern music forever. Bowie's vision and creative genius drove him to push the envelope, lyrically and musically - writing songs that challenged convention, changed the conversation, and have become part of the canon of global culture. His work spanned massive pop hits and experimental adventures that have inspired millions of fans and countless innovators, not only in music, but across all the arts, fashion, and media. We are looking forward to tending his unparalleled body of songs with passion and care as we strive to build on the legacy of this most extraordinary human being."

"I'd like to thank everyone involved with making this wonderful deal happen," Moot continued, "including Bill Zysblat, Tom Cyrana, and the entire Bowie team at RZO, attorney Allen Grubman and firm, as well as our very own 'Team Bowie' made up of Warner Chappell colleagues Alice Aleksandrovich, Steve Butler, Michael LoBiondo, and David Woirhaye."

WCM Co-Chair and COO Carianne Marshall noted: "This fantastic pact with the David Bowie estate opens up a universe of opportunities to take his extraordinary music into dynamic new places. This isn't merely a catalogue, but a living, breathing collection of timeless songs that are as powerful and resonant today as they were when they were first written. We were pleased that the estate felt that Warner Chappell has the knowledge, experience, and resources to take the reins and continue to promote a collection of this stature. All of our global leaders and departments are incredibly excited and primed to get to work with these brilliant songs across multiple avenues and platforms. And with both sides of WMG now representing Bowie's career, we couldn't be better set up to represent this illustrious body of work."

On behalf of the David Bowie Estate and RZO, Allen Grubman added: "We are truly gratified that David Bowie's body of music will now be in the capable hands of Warner Chappell Music Publishing. We are sure they will cherish it and take care of it with the greatest level of dignity."

Bowie, who died of cancer in January of 2016, was fastidious about maintaining control of his work and regularly snapped up stray recordings and other items from his career whenever they became available. While his estate owns his catalogue from 1968 forward, his earliest officially released material - a string of singles and one self-titled 1967 album, all of which are vastly inferior to his classic work - is outside of the Warner deal, although ironically, many of the songs from that era appear in new versions on 'Toy'.
