David Bowie’s Biggest Singles Collected for ‘Legacy’ Comp

David Bowie’s iconic, shape-shifting catalog will once again be examined for a new compilation Legacy that gathers the singer’s biggest singles onto a 2CD set. Bowie’s site calls Legacy “an introduction to a world of incredible music, just waiting to be enjoyed by a whole new generation.”

The two-disc version of Legacy, which arrives January 7th in a variety of formats, culls 40 of Bowie’s greatest hits, from his breakthrough single “Space Oddity” to his closing Blackstar track “I Can’t Give Everything Away,” many presented in the form of their single edits.

Legacy also collects the hits made in collaboration with other artists: “Under Pressure” with Queen, “Dancing in the Streets” with Mick Jagger and his vocals on Pat Metheny Band’s “This Is Not America.”

Additionally Legacy features an unreleased “2016 remix” of “Life on Mars?” created by original Hunky Dory producer Ken Scott.

Legacy will also be available as a single-disc, 20-track collection. Check Bowie’s site for the track list to that version.

The compilation is the latest in a string of posthumous releases following Bowie’s January death, including his recent box set Who Can I Be Now? (1973 – 1975) and the upcoming Lazarus Cast Album, featuring Bowie’s final recordings.
