David Bowie, the Very Best, live from the Montreal Forum, Canada on 12th July 1983
David Bowie’s sold-out Serious Moonlight tour of ‘83 was the biggest of his career to this point. Bowie embarked upon this tour to promote his 15th studio album Let’s Dance, produced by music maestro and Chic guitarist, Nile Rodgers. Racking up 98 dates across 15 countries, it sold in excess of 2.6 million tickets worldwide, delighting die-hard fans and bringing this more ‘accessible’ Bowie to a whole new generation of audiences, showcasing his body of work spanning some 15 years. The collection of Bowie’s greatest hits here are taken from his exquisite performance at the Montreal Forum, Canada, on 12th July 1983, broadcast on the King Biscuit Flower Hour radio show, the first of a two-night stand at the venue and rewarded audiences with fan favourites from 13 studio albums. From Space Oddity (1969 self-titled second album), all the way to the (then) present hits from Let’s Dance.
