David Bowie’s final years box set unveiled

The sixth in a series of career-spanning David Bowie box sets, I Can’t Give Everything Away (2002-2016), will be released by Parlophone on September 12.

The 13-CD or 18-LP box set includes the albums Heathen, Reality, A Reality Tour, The Next Day, The Next Day Extra and Blackstar, all remastered with input from Tony Visconti (except for Blackstar).

It also includes the the No Plan EP (the original songs written for Bowie’s Off-Broadway play, Lazarus), plus a previously unreleased 31-track live set from the Montreux Jazz Festival in 2002 and a compilation called Re:Call 6, featuring 41 rare non-album tracks. Listen to “New Killer Star (AOL Session, 23/09/03 – 2025 Remaster)” below:

The box set comes with an accompanying book featuring previously unseen notes, drawings and handwritten lyrics from Bowie and photos by Sukita (who took the set’s cover shot), Jimmy King, Frank W Ockenfels 3, Markus Klinko, Mark ‘Blammo’ Adams and more, as well as memorabilia, technical notes about the albums from co-producer Tony Visconti, and design notes from Jonathan Barnbrook.
