Not had time to label everything, but here a day early than release is the Metrobolist companion 2 disc 'book'.
Great value at £20 - the book part of it is very well done.
Ripped at FLAC by myself.
The Bowie RSD material was all de-listed and made available via indies (possibly in anticipation of Covid issues).
I can't encode the PD vinyl, but enjoy these 2 discs of material.
Info shamelessly taken from Bowie.com.
EAC -> FLAC
Any imperfections are part of the disc mastering not the rip.

DAVID BOWIE – THE WIDTH OF A CIRCLE

+ - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - +
The 2020 re-release of The Man Who Sold The World restored the album’s intended title Metrobolist, while featuring a new mix by original producer Tony Visconti. Taking its name from the album’s opening track, which was named after a painting by Bowie’s friend George Underwood, the new two-CD set The Width Of A Circle acts as a complementary piece to that album. Its 21 tracks feature non-album singles, a BBC In Concert session, music for a TV play and further Visconti remixes wrapping up David’s recordings from 1970 and revealing the first sonic steps toward Hunky Dory.
