Jedna z největších osobnostní světové hudby, proslulý hudební chameleon a průkopník hned několika hudebních směrů. Za svůj život vydal tento britský umělec rovných dvacet pět alb, z nichž velká část se zařadila do zlatého fondu populární hudby a ovlivnila hned několik generací hudebníků z několika hudebních žánrů. Své poslední album Black Star David Bowie vydal 8. ledna 2016 v den svých šedesátých devátých narozenin a pouhé dva dny před svou smrtí.
Deska mapuje Bowieho cestu k Ziggy Stardust. Počínaje ranými domácími ukázkami, přes rádiové seance a živá vystoupení, až po session nahrávky, outtakes a alternativní verze z nahrávání alba The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust. Přiložená kniha bude obsahovat dosud neviděné fotografie, zbrusu nové poznámky a rozhovory s Kenem Scottem, Woody Woodmansym a členy Davidovy kapely The Arnold Corns. Komplet na 5CD/BR obsahuje 29 nevydaných nahrávek, LP varianta nabízí čtrnáct skladeb.
