ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Pressing Features:
- This recording originally existed as a bootleg single, backed with "Heroes" which Bowie also performed on the 30 November 1977 TV special "Bing Crosby's Merrie Olde Christmas". Bowie had reservations about singing "Little Drummer Boy", so Ian Fraser, songwriter Larry Grossman, and show scriptwriter Buz Kohan set about arranging the Katherine K. Davis song "Peace on Earth" as a counterpoint for Bowie to sing as a duet with Crosby. Bowie & Crosby recorded it together at Elstree Studios on 11 September 1977.
- Sadly, Bing Crosby died on October 14, 1977 before the show aired.
RCA issued the recording as an official single in 1982, complete with unedited dialogue on a 12" release. "Fantastic Voyage" from Bowie's "Lodger" album is the B-side and reached #3 on the UK charts.
Picture disc is pristine with no spindle marks, wear or blemishes.
Record Grading: (VG+/EX)
Record surface is bright and glossy and appears minimally played...plays crisp, clear and loud with occasional light crackle or soft pop.
Sleeve Grading: (VG+/EX)
Fully intact, thin die-cut thin red sleeve cover appears almost new except for some corner bending.
