I agree. I have just ordered the Tone Poet vinyl though to fill that gap which I didnt know I had, or maybe I havent and misfiled it leading to a dupilicate purchase as has hapoened before :grin:

I think the RVG editions originally came with card outer sleeves, I have quite a few that I bought cheaply as they didnt have the card covers, maybe thats why they look different to yours?

I don’t think that the RVG CDs ever came with card outers - the early CDs mastered by Ron McMaster certainly did though. I remember buying 'Black Fire , ‘Blue Spirits’ and a few others in that version. Around 1989-90 ish.

Updated - I think I see what you mean. It was a card outer sleeve on the early RVGs. The early McMasters had a long box. I stand corrected ! :slightly_smiling_face:

David Bowie | Blackstar | 2016
There has been some fine Bowie being played earlier and above. This album was primarily recorded in secret between the Magic Shop and Human Worldwide Studios in New York City with Bowie’s longtime co-producer Tony Visconti and a group of local jazz musicians. It was released worldwide on 8 January 2016, coinciding with Bowie’s 69th birthday and two days before his death through his ISO Records label, Columbia and Sony Records. When I finally managed make myself listen to it, it became one of my favourites.

Didn’t the TOTP appearance in 1979 follow Bowie’s Boys Keep Swinging?

Don’t think so - according to TOTP ARCHIVES he was on after Roxy Music “Dance Away” - followed by Legs & Co dancing to Donna Summer - Bowie’s video to “Boys Keep Swinging” was on later!
