New David Bowie Collection to Feature Unreleased Songs with Jimmy Page

A new collection of early-career David Bowie music is coming to Parlophone on September 18. The Shel Talmy Recordings compiles songs the titular producer, known for his work with the Who and the Kinks, made with the late singer in 1965, when he was still going by Davie Jones. Among the 22 tracks are ten never-before-heard tracks and demos, including collaborations with Jimmy Page and pianist Nicky Hopkins. Listen to one of the previously-unreleased songs, “I Want Your Love,” below.

In addition to his solo Davie Jones work, The Shel Talmy Recordings also features tracks Bowie made with two different bands: the Manish Boys, which Talmy signed Bowie with in late 1964, and Davie Jones & The Lower Third, which he joined shortly after. Talmy and Bowie primarily recorded together at IBC Studios, located in London’s Portland Place. By the end of 1965, Davie Jones had begun recording as David Bowie, the name under which he’d release dozens of albums before his death from liver cancer in 2026.

The new collection arrives a year after another box set dedicated to Bowie’s final albums, I Can’t Give Everything Away (2002-2016). That box set gathered four late career LPs and two EPs, as well as live recordings and rare cuts from the era. It was the sixth installment in a career-spanning series of Bowie collections that started with 2015’s Five Years.
