David Bowie Bowpromo (Box Set)
Released as a Record Store Day 4/22/2017 exclusive. Limited edition of 15,000 copies worldwide. Includes five exclusive Bowie prints.
This release is a copy of the first side of that 1971 promo LP David Bowie / Dana Gillespie. From all published accounts it is a 'needle drop' copy of the 1971 LP and not taken from the original tapes.
Vinyl is mint and excellent. Appears to have only been played once if at all. Labels are excellent. Sleeve is excellent. Green tissue paper surrounding sleeve has edgewear on bottom edge. Glossy photo prints are excellent. Envelope that houses photos is excellent. BOWPROMO insert is excellent with a couple light scuffs/smudges. Box/cover is excellent with a touch of cornerwear and a few light scuffs/dings on front and back covers just holding grade back from NM.
"In August 1971, David Bowie's manager, Tony Defries had 500 promo LPs pressed to secure Bowie and fellow Mainman artist Dana Gillespie a record deal. The promo album, featuring seven Bowie performances on one side and five by Gillespie on the flip is often referred to as the BOWPROMO white label album due to BOWPROMO being most of the matrix found in the runout space on the LP."
