Artwork : Yes
Note : The Essential David Bowie series is a set of three discs, containing very high quality versions of BBC sessions (with a handful of outtakes on disc one). The set is:
1. Emerged From Shadows
2. Kiss The Viper’s Fang
3. Nobody’s Children
There are also some alternative studio tracks. 7-10 are from the Little Toy Soldier LP, 11 is the Bowie/Hutch version from the Ryko box and I think Supermen is just the Glastonbury Fayre version (yet again).
