David Bowie is the second studio album by the English musician David Bowie, released under that title by Philips in the UK, and as Man of Words/Man of Music by Mercury in the US, on 14 November 1969. It was reissued in 1972 by RCA Records as Space Oddity (the title of the opening track, which had reached No. 5 in the UK Singles Chart). Space Oddity was the name used for CD releases of the album in 1984, 1990 and 1999, but it reverted to the original, eponymous title for 2009 and 2015 reissues.

Complete your David Bowie collection. Absolutely no complaints and totally delighted with the LP in terms of sound quality and packaging. I particularly liked the off song chat between Bowie and Hutch which really adds to the overall listening experience.

This is an early recording of David Bowie and The Feathers live in 1968, performing demos for the Space Oddity album. It includes two previously unreleased tracks. Actually recorded in February 1969, in David's bedroom at Clairville Grove, Chelsea). This release has been blocked from sale in the marketplace.

Space Oddity joins Changes (inducted last year), and the Ziggy Stardust album which joined the GRAMMY Hall of Fame ranks in 1999. A lot has been said regarding Space Oddity over the years, so much so that if every word written about it were placed end to end, they would reach far above the moon. However, a very moving story related to the song was posted on slate. com recently, titled: ‘How David Bowie helped my autistic son become himself’. The story is of Benj, who learned to express himself through Bowie’s music, Space Oddity in particular. Any money raised will go to the Bowie Bandstand Restoration and Plaque Fund.

Until the last, David Bowie, who has died of cancer, was still capable of springing surprises. His latest album, Blackstar, appeared on his 69th birthday on 8 January, and showed that his gift for making dramatic statements as well as challenging, disturbing music had not deserted him. Throughout the 1970s, Bowie was a trailblazer of musical trends and pop fashion. Having been a late-60s mime and cabaret entertainer, he evolved into a singer-songwriter, and a pioneer of glam-rock, then veered into what he called plastic soul, before moving to Berlin to create innovative electronic music

Originally released as David Bowie in the UK and Man of Words/Man of Music in the US, David Bowie’s second album was reissued as Space Oddity in 1972. It was known under the name of its lead single – by far the most famous song on the album – on four subsequent releases, but from 2009 was released under its original name of David Bowie. Confusingly, so is Bowie’s 1967 début. Although the lead single hit in the UK, and eventually reached in 1975, the album was less successful, peaking at in the UK and in the US.
