DAVID BOWIE & GAIL ANN DORSEY - PLANET OF DREAMS
AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME AS A STREAMING SINGLE ON PARLOPHONE/ISO RECORDS
TAKEN FROM DAVID BOWIE 5. BRILLIANT ADVENTURE (1992 – 2001) RELEASED 26th NOVEMBER 2021
Parlophone Records/ISO Records announces PLANET OF DREAMS by David Bowie & Gail Ann Dorsey a rare track taken from the forthcoming DAVID BOWIE 5. BRILLIANT ADVENTURE (1992 – 2001) boxset.
PLANET OF DREAMS was originally released on the Long Live Tibet charity album in 1997, the track has been unavailable since then and this single release marks its streaming debut.
The track was recorded in the Winter of 1996 in Toronto at Metalworks studio while David and his then band were filming the video for EARTHLING’s second single “Dead Man Walking” with Floria Sigismondi directing.
David’s guitarist and collaborator Reeves Gabrels: “While getting ready to go to Toronto to film the video, David received a request for a track for a Free Tibet benefit album. Our video filming schedule was spread over several days and allowed us a day off. Metalworks Studio were more than happy to accommodate David Bowie on short notice, so Mark Plati flew up from New York and flew back the following day to mix the song. We arrived at the studio with a written song sketch, and by the time we had recorded an instrumental performance we were happy with, David had finished the lyrics. While he was doing his vocal, he had the idea to have it be more of a duet with Gail.”.
