Most comprehensive collection yet of a formative year \u2013 22 tracks, 10 previously unreleased<\/p>\n
The David Bowie<\/a> estate have announced The Shel Talmy Recordings, the most complete collection yet of the tracks Bowie recorded with the legendary producer in 1965. It includes the previously unreleased \u2018I Want Your Love\u2019, which you can hear below.<\/p>\n When Bowie\u2019s June 1964 debut single \u2013 \u2018Liza Jane\u2019, credited to Davie Jones With The King Bees \u2013 failed to set the charts alight, the band was dropped by Decca and split up. The 17-year-old Bowie picked himself up and joined The Manish Boys in July and spent much of the summer performing around the south-east of England. In December 1964 the band embarked upon their first UK tour, as unbilled support to Gene Pitney, and in the new year manager Leslie Conn arranged for Shel Talmy to produce their first single, a cover of the Bobby Bland track \u2018I Pity The Fool\u2019 backed with a Bowie original, \u2018Take My Tip\u2019.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The session took place on 15 January 1965 at IBC Studios, Portland Place, London. Talmy was hot property following his success with The Kinks<\/a> and The Who<\/a> and called upon session ace Jimmy Page<\/a> to arrange and play guitar (apparently using his fuzz box for the first time). Despite a performance on the BBC 2 show Gadzooks! It\u2019s All Happening, the single flopped and Bowie left The Manish Boys in May. A week later, he joined blue trio The Lower Third and on 20 August 1965 released his first single with them, \u2018You\u2019ve Got A Habit Of Leaving\u2019 b\/w \u2018\u2019Baby Loves That Way\u2019 (both Bowie compositions) \u2013 again produced by Talmy, this time featuring Nicky Hopkins on keyboards.<\/p>\n The 22-track CD features recordings made throughout that period with Talmy, including 10 previously unreleased tracks \u2013 an upgrade on compilations such as 1991\u2019s Early On (1964-65). The vinyl version has 11 tracks, six of which are previously unreleased, and is available as either red or black pressing. A vinyl edition with an alternative cover (a less compelling image from the same shoot), limited to 1,965 copies, is available from HMV and Record Store Day shops.<\/p>\n The Shel Talmy Recordings is out on 18 September 2026 via Parlophone.<\/p>\n Tracklisting <\/p>\n CD<\/p>\n You\u2019ve Got A Habit Of Leaving\u00a0^ *Previously Unreleased Vinyl<\/p>\n Side One<\/p>\n You\u2019ve Got A Habit Of Leaving (2026 Remaster) ^ Side Two<\/p>\n I Want Your Love *^ *Previously Unreleased SuperDeluxeEdition.com\u00a0helps fans around the world discover physical music and discuss releases.
