Notes

Limited edition, includes extra disc featuring Bowie at the BBC Radio Theatre June 27, 2000 packaged together in a cardboard slipcase. Extra disc has same catalogue number as slipcase, but barcode is printed only on slipcase

Due to a mastering error, the first pressings (estimated at 250,000 copies) contained the version of "Ziggy Stardust" recorded on 16 May 1972 twice (on track 2-04 and 2-12) while the version recorded on 18 January 1972 was missing.
By ing the Consumer Department of EMI, buyers could get the so-called replacement disc containing the missing 'Ziggy Stardust' version.

    19 years later (archiving my cd's to FLAC) just realised mine is the misspress original! Guess I'm too late to claim a replacement CD from EMI!! :-)

      Does anyone else have a whole side of an album with Lou Reed songs? There’s 4 of them.

        How do you know if my version is the misspress? The two Ziggy Stardust versions are very similar in a difference of just one second. The number of both are: CD 2 nr 4 and CD2 nr 12

            First pressing erroneously duplicates the 2-11 'Ziggy Stardust' on 2-4. Later pressings correct this and uses the appropriate version of 'Ziggy' on 2-4.
