Bowie's debut release was the 1964 single "Liza Jane" by Davie Jones & the King Bees. He released two more singles in 1965 under the names of The Manish Boys and Davy Jones & the Lower Third. His first release using the name David Bowie was the 1966 single "Can't Help Thinking About Me", which was released with The Lower Third. Bowie's next single, "Do Anything You Say", also released in 1966, was the first release by simply David Bowie. Bowie released four more singles and his debut album, David Bowie, but the first success in the United Kingdom was with the 1969 single "Space Oddity". The single reached number five on the UK Singles Chart after it was released five days before the Apollo 11 moon mission.[2] In 1975 the single was re-released: it became the first Bowie's number one single on the UK Singles Chart.
Bowie released three more albums – David Bowie (1969), The Man Who Sold the World (1970) and Hunky Dory (1971) – before he eventually made it on to the UK Albums Chart with The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972), which peaked at number five. Following the success of Ziggy Stardust, sales of Hunky Dory improved and it eventually peaked at number three in the UK in 1973. RCA re-released the 1969 David Bowie under the title Space Oddity (with an updated Ziggy Stardust-era photo) and The Man Who Sold the World, which reached numbers 17 and 26 in the UK respectively (but the last one reached number 21 after the Bowie'death in 2016). Bowie released nine more studio albums with RCA, all of which reached the top five of the UK Albums Chart, of which Aladdin Sane (1973), Pin Ups (1973), Diamond Dogs (1974) and Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) (1980) reached the number one position. His 1975 RCA album "Young Americans" included his first #1 US single "Fame",[3] which was co-written by John Lennon — who also performed on the album — and Carlos Alomar. He then released three solo studio albums with EMI – Let's Dance (1983), whose title track became his first single to reach number one in both the United Kingdom and the United States, Tonight (1984) and Never Let Me Down (1987). Let's Dance and Tonight reached number one on the UK Albums Chart, while Never Let Me Down reached number six. The success of Let's Dance revitalized Bowie's back catalogue: throughout the summer of 1983, he had multiple albums on the UK Albums Chart. This peaked on 16 July that year, with ten entries – a figure bettered only by Elvis Presley.[4]
In 1989, Bowie created the rock group Tin Machine, who released a self-titled album with EMI. Although Tin Machine reached number three on the UK Albums Chart, it did not sell well and Bowie and EMI did not renew their contract.[5] Tin Machine II followed in 1991 on London Records and, only reaching number 23 in the UK, was Bowie's worst-charting album since the 1973 re-release of The Man Who Sold the World. Continuing as a solo artist, Bowie's next album, Black Tie White Noise (1993), reached the number one position on the UK Albums Chart. Bowie released a further seven studio albums, all of which have reached the top ten in the UK. Released after a ten-year hiatus, The Next Day (2013) was Bowie's first UK chart-topping album since Black Tie White Noise (1993). Bowie released his final album, Blackstar on 8 January 2016, his 69th birthday and two days before his death on 10 January. The album debuted at number one in the UK and became Bowie's first album to reach number one on the Billboard 200 in the US.[6]

Re-releases
The first reissue of Bowie's albums came in November 1972 in the wake of the success of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972). RCA then reissued David Bowie (UK 1969) aka Man of Words / Man of Music (USA 1969) as Space Oddity; and The Man Who Sold the World (1970 [USA] / 1971 [UK]).[59] These two rereleases also had new Ziggy Stardust style cover art, images of Bowie taken during the 1972 period. Just as its contract with Bowie was ending, RCA re-issued all of his albums on CD in 1984. By 1989 the rights had reverted to Bowie. Rykodisc outbid Rhino for the rights to the RCA catalog (from David Bowie aka Space Oddity [1969] onwards) and re-issued all of these albums as part of their "Sound + Vision" series.[60][61][62][63] In 1997 Bowie licensed the albums to EMI.[63] In 2013 the rights were acquired by the Warner Music Group.[63] The rights of Bowie's first album, David Bowie (1967), remain with Deram, and so have not featured in the series reissues, but have seen reissues of their own a number of times. The list below covers the most significant reissues (remasters and bonus tracks) since the original albums were released:
Album | Date | Formats | Significant Re-releases – Details [53] |
---|---|---|---|
David Bowie (1967) | 2010 | CD | Deluxe Edition Released in a deluxe edition by Deram in the UK and Universal Music world-wide. This features both stereo and mono mixes of the album, together with previously unreleased stereo mixes of songs not originally included and, for the first time as an official release, Bowie's first BBC radio session (Top Gear, 18 December 1967). There are also all the singles, and remix and reworked versions of songs. |
David Bowie (1969) | 1972 | LP | RCA Reissue The first reissue of a Bowie album, released in the wake of the success of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972) in November 1972. For this reissue, the album – originally titled David Bowie in the UK and Man of Words / Man of Music slightly later in the USA – was retitled Space Oddity. It was also given a new cover: a Ziggy Stardust era extreme close up of Bowie's face. The track listing is the same as the American edition, that is, omitting the 40 second jam "Don't Sit Down" that appeared on the UK version after "Unwashed and Somewhat Slightly Dazed". |
1990 | LP / CD | Rykodisc reissue Has the RCA Reissue cover. Bonus tracks from the singles included as extras. The LP was clear vinyl, with the bonus tracks on side 3. | |
1999 | LP / CD | EMI remaster The cover was adapted from the original artwork but retained the title Space Oddity. It now included 'Don't Sit Down' as per the original UK release. Rykodisc reissue bonus tracks were not included. | |
2009 | LP / CD | 40th Anniversary Edition The original album title was restored to join the original artwork of the 1999 EMI remaster. Further remastered sound closer to the original album sound and with extensive bonus disc, including the Rykodisc reissue bonus tracks, demos and a BBC radio session. | |
2015 | LP / CD | Five Years box set Edition See box sets section of discography. | |
The Man Who Sold the World (1970) | 1972 | LP | RCA Reissue The second reissue of a Bowie album, released in the wake of the success of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars (1972) in November 1972 alongside the renamed David Bowie (1969) as Space Oddity. The original American version of the album had a cartoon of a man with a gun, while the UK version (1971) featured Bowie lounging in a dress and the German version Bowie's head with wings. For this reissue the album was also, like David Bowie / Space Oddity (1969) given a new cover: a Ziggy Stardust era image in black of Bowie kicking out his leg. |
1990 | LP / CD | Rykodisc reissue Restored the 'dress cover', and included the front covers of the other three editions. Included bonus tracks from the singles and other studio recordings. | |
1999 | LP / CD | EMI remaster 24-bit digitally remastered sound but without the Rykodisc reissue extras. | |

However, some of the tracks on the original album were edited slightly, and the stereo channels had accidentally been reversed. This was the first in a series of 30th Anniversary 2CD Edition sets, the others being (over the next two years) Aladdin Sane and Diamond Dogs. | |
2012 | LP / CD / DVD | 40th Anniversary Edition The CD did not contain any bonus material but the DVD edition contains the album in 5.1 mixes and contains four bonus tracks. | |

The album also had a slightly different cover. The original has a still from Nicolas Roeg's The Man Who Fell to Earth (which Bowie had just completed shooting) surrounded by a large white border. This re-release used a colour version of the cover art, the photograph occupying the entirety of the front cover apart from the title text at the top. |

As well as the Nassau Coliseum show, there were also two different transfers of the album (one a Dolby 5.1 mix), and single edits. This uses both the black and white and colour versions of the cover. | |

Re-releases (and pre-releases)
Album | Date | Formats | Significant Re-releases (and pre-releases) – Details [53] |
---|---|---|---|
David Live (1974) | 1990 | CD | Rykodisc reissue This edition also included the band introduction and two bonus tracks at the end of album. |
2005 | CD | EMI remaster This edition included another two bonus tracks (in addition to the 1990 edition), and placed all the bonus tracks in the correct order on the album. Furthermore, due to technological advances, the album was remixed for much improved sound. | |
2016 | LP / CD / DD | Who Can I Be Now? box set Editions This boxset included remasters of both the original (1974) and EMI (2005) editions of the album, once again improving the sound for both. See box sets section of discography. | |
Stage (1978) | 1991 | CD | Rykodisc reissue This edition also included a bonus track at the end of album. |
2005 | CD | EMI remaster This edition features a new running order, reflecting the original setlist of the concerts as performed. Two previously unreleased performances were included on the album as bonus tracks (in addition to the bonus track on the 1991 Rykodisc reissue). The album was also remixed for improved sound. | |
2017 | LP / CD / DD | A New Career in a New Town box set Editions This boxset included remasters of both the original (1978) and EMI (2005) editions of the album. The latter also contained another two bonus tracks (in addition to the three added during the 1991 Rykodisc reissue and 2005 EMI remaster). Once again, these remasters improved the sound for both versions of the album. See box sets section of discography. | |
Ziggy Stardust: The Motion Picture (1983) | 2003 | CD / LP | 30th Anniversary Edition Remaster by Tony Visconti – Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars: The Motion Picture Soundtrack This edition was remixed by Tony Visconti, contains additional material, including introductions, spoken passages and the complete version of "The Width of a Circle"; "Changes" was also slotted into its correct position in the original concert's running order following "Moonage Daydream". The remaster may also have had some of the overdubs removed or put much lower in the mix (sources vary on this), which were created for the 1983 version. "The Jean Genie / Love Me Do" medley and "Round and Round" encore with Jeff Beck are still omitted. It is this edition which is included in the Five Years (1969–1973) box set Edition – see box sets section of discography. |
liveandwell.com (1999) | 2000 | CD | liveandwell.com [Reissue] A second release of the CD in 2000 came with a bonus disc made up of four rare remixes, one being the song "Fun", which was itself not released commercially. |
Glass Spider (2007) | 1989 | CD | Bon Soir Montreal The Glass Spider live album is sourced from a professional recording for a CD promo set that was distributed among American radio stations in late 1987 / early 1988. CD Bootlegs of these recordings appeared in 1989 as Bon Soir Montreal. |
Live Santa Monica '72 (2008) | Unknown | LP | Bootlegs – various titles As this recording originated from KMET FM's live radio broadcast, it was taped and illegally pressed as an album many times. According to author David Buckley, copies had been around for more than 20 years by the time of the semi-official/legal release Santa Monica '72 in 1994.[78] |
1994 | LP | Santa Monica '72 (and other titles) Santa Monica '72 was issued semi-legally/officially and without Bowie's approval by the Golden Years label in 1994, with Griffin Music handling the American release in 1995. The 1995 European reissue was titled Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars "Live".[79] In the years to come various versions of this release appeared in different – and ever more complex – packaging, and with various extras. | |
Live Nassau Coliseum '76 (2017) | Unknown | LP | Bootlegs – various titles The full gig was broadcast live on the King Biscuit Flower Hour show in the US, and was accordingly bootlegged a number of times. |
2010 | LP | Station to Station Special and Deluxe Editions [Remaster] Both the special and deluxe editions of Station to Station included the entire 1976 Nassau Coliseum show – albeit with an edited version of "Panic In Detroit" – on two CDs newly remastered. The full version of "Panic In Detroit" (which had a long drum solo by Dennis Davis) was made available as a digital download. The 2010 remasters (again with the edited version of "Panic In Detroit") were included in the Who Can I Be Now? box set Edition released in 2016 prior to the album being given a standalone release in 2017. | |
