Album US 2000 on EMI label
Rock (Classic Rock, Pop Rock, Glam)
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 250,000 copies) contained the 'Ziggy Stardust' version, recorded on 16.5.72, twice (on track 2-04 and 2-12) while the earlier version, recorded 18.1.72, was missing. By contacting the Consumer Department of EMI, buyers could get the so-called replacement disc containing the missing 'Ziggy Stardust' version.
