March 02, 2018

Rare recordings by legendary British singer-songwriter David Bowie are set to be released in April. 

 A three-LP set titled Welcome To The Blackout (Live London '78) by the Ziggy Stardust hitmaker will be put on the account of Record Store Day 2018 on April 21, FemaleFirst reported. 

The collection will include recordings from Bowie's Isolar II performances at London's now-razed Earls Court on June 30 and July 1 in 1978.  

A 12" single of the first full-length version of Let's Dance, with a live take of the track as the B-side, will also be up for grabs.  

Bowie Now, a promotional-only LP which was originally brought out especially in the US in 1977 -- which includes tracks from Heroes and Low -- will also release the same day.  

Bowie died on January 10, 2016, due to liver cancer, two days after his 69th birthday.
