NEVER SEEN
YOUR KITTEN EYES
LOOK SO GREEN
YOUR EYES ARE SHOWING
MAGIC LIKE I'VE
NEVER SEEN
Spying Through a Keyhole
is a
box set
by
English
musician
David Bowie,
released in
April 2019.
The set includes
four 7" vinyl records
containing nine songs
written and
performed by
Bowie
during 1968,
the era in
which he was
writing for his album
David Bowie (1969).
All songs
in the collection
are presented in
mono,
demo form.
Background
Announced in
January 2019,
the box set
was released to
coincide with
the 50th anniversary
of Bowie's 1969
album
David Bowie.
The title is taken
from one of
the included,
previously unknown
songs called
"Love Is All Around".
Some of the songs
in the collection
"London Bye, Ta-Ta",
"In The Heat of the Morning",
and
"Space Oddity"
have been
released before,
but not in this form.
A brief excerpt from
"Space Oddity"
is believed to be
the first demo
of the song
that Bowie
ever recorded.
The set includes
early photos
of Bowie,
including one taken
in his friend
and frequent
album producer
and musician
Tony Visconti's
apartment
in 1968.
Recording Dates
The box set's
liner notes
suggest that
all tracks,
beside
had been recorded
between
January
and
February 1968,
just prior to
the studio session
for
"In The Heat of the Morning"
and
"London Bye, Ta-Ta"
in March 1968.
The two
"Space Oddity"
demos
are speculated to
have been
recorded in
November,
when the song was
claimed to
have been written.
