The box set includes home demos and BBC sessions, as well as two mixes of the 1969 album Space Oddity: the original 1969 stereo mix, and a new 2019 mix produced by Tony Visconti specifically for the set. The release of the 1969 mix is a repressing of the 2009 remastered CD, which was chosen due to its being mastered to match the original LP release, a priority that was not taken for Parlophone’s in-house remaster created for the Five Years (1969\u20131973) box set in 2015.[2]Most of the demo tracks had been released earlier in 2019 in the vinyl box sets Spying Through a Keyhole, Clareville Grove Demos, and The ‘Mercury’ Demos. The 2019 mix of Space Oddity was also given a standalone release on CD and LP and on digital download and streaming services, concurrently with the box set.[2]Recording dates[edit]The first 11 tracks were likely recorded between January and March 1968, the same time “In The Heat of The Morning” and “London Bye, Ta-Ta” were recorded professionally. Tracks 12 and 13 were also likely recorded in November 1968, shortly after the writing of the song “Space Oddity”.[3] Track 14 was recorded sometime between November 1968 and tracks 15 to 23, recorded in January 1969.[4]The Mercury Demos CD was recorded sometime between the first studio attempt at Space Oddity on 2 February 1969, and David’s move to Beckenham in mid April.[5]Tracks 1\u20132 of the third disc were recorded between the 12 March and the 18 April 1968 at Decca Studios,[6] with tracks 3\u20137 being recorded on 13 May at BBC Radio Studios.[7] Following this is “Ching A Ling”, track 8, which was recorded in two sessions between 24 October and 27 November 1968.[6] Track 9 was recorded 2 February 1969, at Morgan Studios.[8] Track 10 was recorded 20 June 1969,[8] with Track 11 likely being recorded around the same time,[9] and Track 12 being from around July \u2013 September. Track 14\u201316 were recorded 20 October.[7]Track listing[edit]Disc one \u2013 Home DemosTitlePrevious release1.“April’s Tooth of Gold”previously unreleased2:292.“The Reverend Raymond Brown (Attends the Garden F\u00eate on Thatchwick Green)”previously unreleased2:153.“When I’m Five”previously unreleased3:184.“Mother Grey”Spying Through a Keyhole3:005.“In the Heat of the Morning”Spying Through a Keyhole2:596.“Goodbye 3d (Threepenny) Joe”Spying Through a Keyhole3:197.“Love All Around”Spying Through a Keyhole2:498.“London Bye, Ta-Ta”Spying Through a Keyhole3:319.“Angel Angel Grubby Face” (version 1)Spying Through a Keyhole2:3110.“Angel Angel Grubby Face” (version 2)Spying Through a Keyhole2:3711.“Animal Farm”previously unreleased2:2112.“Space Oddity” (solo demo fragment)Spying Through a Keyhole2:3913.“Space Oddity” (version 1, with John Hutchinson)Spying Through a Keyhole4:0214.“Space Oddity” (version 2, with John Hutchinson)previously unreleased5.0015.“Space Oddity” (version 3, with John Hutchinson)Clareville Grove Demos5:1016.“Lover to the Dawn” (with John Hutchinson)Clareville Grove Demos3:5017.“Ching-a-Ling” (with John Hutchinson)Clareville Grove Demos2:5818.“An Occasional Dream” (with John Hutchinson)Clareville Grove Demos2:4919.“Let Me Sleep Beside You” (with John Hutchinson)Clareville Grove Demos2:5420.“Life Is a Circus” (Roger Bunn, with John Hutchinson)Clareville Grove Demos4:5021.“Conversation Piece”previously unreleased3:4722.“Jerusalem”previously unreleased4:1923.“Hole In The Ground” (with George Underwood)previously unreleased3:29Disc two \u2013 The ‘Mercury’ DemosTitleWriter(s)1.“Space Oddity”\u00a05:292.“Janine”\u00a03:543.“An Occasional Dream”\u00a03:194.“Conversation Piece”\u00a03:315.“Ching-a-Ling”\u00a03:376.“I’m Not Quite”\u00a04:017.“Lover to the Dawn”\u00a05:028.“Love Song”Lesley Duncan4:099.“When I’m Five”\u00a03:2010.“Life Is a Circus”Roger Bunn5:28Disc three \u2013 Conversation Pieces (Mono)TitlePrevious release1.“In the Heat of the Morning” (Decca mono version)David Bowie; 2010 bonus disc2:512.“London Bye, Ta-Ta” (Decca alternative version)previously unreleased2:363.“In the Heat of the Morning”Bowie at the Beeb3:014.“London Bye, Ta-Ta”Bowie at the Beeb2:395.“Karma Man”Bowie at the Beeb3:076.“When I’m Five”David Bowie; 2010 bonus disc3:147.“Silly Boy Blue”Bowie at the Beeb4:328.“Ching-a-Ling”David Bowie; 2010 bonus disc2:519.“Space Oddity” (Morgan Studios version \u2013 alternative take with John \u2018Hutch\u2019 Hutchinson)previously unreleased4:2210.“Space Oddity” (U.K. single edit)Five Years (1969\u20131973)4:4211.“Wild Eyed Boy from Freecloud” (mono mix)Five Years (1969\u20131973)4:5412.“Janine” (mono mix)Five Years (1969\u20131973)3:2313.“Conversation Piece” (mono mix)Five Years (1969\u20131973)3:0614.“Let Me Sleep Beside You”David Bowie; 2009 bonus disc3:2015.“Unwashed and Somewhat Slightly Dazed”David Bowie; 2009 bonus disc4:0316.“Janine”David Bowie; 2009 bonus disc3:03Disc four \u2013 1969 Stereo MixesTitlePrevious release1.“Space Oddity”David Bowie5:142.“Unwashed and Somewhat Slightly Dazed (inc.
