Description

I am searching for a digital copy of M: - The Secret Tapes Of Dr. Mabuse (recordings), kindly advise if you can share...

I purchased this as a unique brown vinyl release and it is not something I have stumbled upon. Although not immediately obvious (it looks black) it is a translucent brown when held to light, something a bit different "yes", incredibly rare "I don't know, I can find nothing on line and the only time I have come across it is my copy". I welcome thoughts and input... 

The cover artwork of Scary Monsters features Bowie in the Pierrot costume worn in the "Ashes to Ashes" music video, rendered in a combination of Brian Duffy's photographs and a painting by Edward Bell. The original vinyl album's rear sleeve referred to four earlier albums, namely the immediately preceding 'Berlin Trilogy' and 1973's Aladdin Sane, the latter also having been designed and photographed by Duffy. The cover images from Low, "Heroes", and Lodger—the last showing Bowie's torso superimposed on the figure from Aladdin Sane's inside gatefold picture—were portrayed in small frames to the left of the track listing. Their whitewashed look was reportedly designed "to symbolise the discarding of Bowie's old personae." These images were not reproduced on the Rykodisc reissue in 1992, but were restored for EMI/Virgin's 1999 remastered edition.

Please check out my excellent feedback and if you have any queries then please do not hesitate to ask.
