Product Details

Bowie's third album arrived in 1970 with almost no fanfare, yet it planted the seeds for everything that followed, introducing the hard rock textures and philosophical unease that would run through Ziggy Stardust and beyond. Mick Ronson's guitar work here is foundational, and the record marked the true beginning of Bowie's most transformative creative decade.

2020 release. Originally titled Metrobolist, the album's name was changed at the last minute to The Man Who Sold The World - the original stereo master tapes were in fact labeled Metrobolist, with the title ultimately crossed out. The 2020 re-release of the album under it's Metrobolist moniker has been remixed by original producer Tony Visconti, with the exception of the track 'After All' which Tony considered perfect as is and is featured in it's 2015 remaster incarnation.
