David Bowie Young Americans (50th Anniversay Picture Disc)

LIMITED EDITION PICTURE DISC

On the exact day of its Golden Jubilee, Young Americans will be issued as a limited edition 50th anniversary half-speed mastered LP pressed from the same master.

The album saw Bowie broaden his musical horizons once more, embracing what he called 'Plastic Soul' and would give Bowie his first number one single in the U.S., ‘Fame’, co-written with John Lennon and Bowie's then guitarist, Carlos Alomar.

This new pressing of Young Americans was cut on a customised late Neumann VMS80 lathe with fully recapped electronics from 192kHz restored masters of the original Record Plant master tapes, with no additional processing on transfer. The half-speed was cut by John Webber at AIR Studios.
