David Bowie’s final three songs are to be released.
The late music legend’s unheard tracks ‘No Plan’, ‘Killing A Little Time’ and ‘When I Met You’ will be included on a new album alongside the cast and band of the original New York production of Bowie’s musical ‘Lazarus’, who will release their versions of his songs from the show.
The three unheard studio recordings were co-produced by Bowie and Tony Visconti and recorded with Donny McCaslin and his quartet, the same band that played on Bowie’s final LP ‘Blackstar’.
Fans will also receive the original version of ‘Lazarus’ along with the cast album.
Meanwhile, the 2016 Mercury Prize Awards Show will feature a special performance from ‘Lazarus’ as a tribute to the late star, who tragically died in January at the age of 69 from cancer
Michael C. Hall – the main performer in the forthcoming theatre production – will do a rendition of the song from the late music legend’s final LP ‘Blackstar’ backed by the house band at the ceremony held on September 15 at the Eventim Apollo Hammersmith.
The ‘Space Oddity’ hitmaker has posthumously been nominated for a third time having previously been up for the prestigious Mercury Prize in 2002 for ‘Heathen’ and in 2013 for ‘The Next Day’.
