Notes

The Man Who Sold the World is the third from 26 studio albums (1967-2016) by the British rock musician David Bowie. Recording 17 April – 22 May 1970 at Trident Studios in London. Originally released November 1970 on Mercury in the United States, this album had a variety of different covers, although the official cover is now believed to be the April 1971 UK cover.

The German Mercury edition contains some extra music at the conclusion of the album - as the last track fades out a short section of an earlier track "Saviour Machine" is heard. Evidence of this being the original intention can be deduced by it also appearing very faintly and much briefer on the RCA editions.
