David Bowie – Toy (Toy:Box) (2022) [FLAC 24bit/96kHz]

Published in November 2021, Brilliant Adventure zooms in on David Bowie’s 1992-2001 period. At the heart of this copious box set of more than 130 tracks is Toy, an unreleased opus recorded in New York between July and October 2000, on which the Thin White Duke revisits his songs from his mod beginnings, in the sixties (when he was acting as Davy Jones and the Lower Third and Davie Jones with the King Bees), and that he dresses with the sound of his time. Rereadings of pre-fame compositions that Bowie designed mainly with Earl Slick on guitar, Gail Ann Dorsey on bass, Mike Garson on keyboards and Sterling Campbell on drums. In addition to the original album, this Toy Box offers two additional discs of the same repertoire with alternative versions and acoustic versions. Hardcore fans of the star who would have turned 75 the day after the release of this box set will appreciate this umpteenth sleight of hand of their idol in the form of time travel
