The Man Who Sold The World, was issued in the US in November 1970 in a cartoon cover.
It sold very few copies and Mercury arranged for a tour to help promote it early the following year.
 Whereas Space Oddity had been a largely acoustic set this album was full of dark doom-laden music
 punctuated by Ronson's incisive guitar riffs with a backing which included a moog synthesizer.
Bowie's vocals were cold and impersonal but his voice and the music were ideally suited to the subject matter
 of many of the songs whose characters were often on the verge of insanity. It's an excellent album
and anyone not familiar with it should investigate it immediately. The title track, in particular,
was one of Bowie's finest moments. Boosted by his promotional visit it helped establish him as a cult figure
 in the States. When it was later released here in the UK in April 1971 early copies came
with a different sleeve with Bowie wearing a dress. This was quickly withdrawn and, as many of you will know,
 original pressings bearing this sleeve are now major collectors' items...(Tapestry of Delights)
