YOUNG AMERICANS will be issued as a limited edition 50th anniversary half-speed mastered LP and a picture disc LP with a poster pressed from the same master.

The album saw Bowie broaden his musical horizons once more, embracing what he called 'Plastic Soul' and would give Bowie his first number one single in the U.S., FAME, co-written with John Lennon and Bowie's then guitarist, Carlos Alomar.

This new pressing of YOUNG AMERICANS was cut on a customized late Neumann VMS80 lathe with fully recapped electronics from 192kHz restored masters of the original Record Plant master tapes, with no additional processing on transfer. The half-speed was cut by John Webber at AIR Studios.

    After the first couple listens and comparing it to my original Young Americans album, I've come to appreciate

    the subtle nuance between the two. So glad this is available!

    Though not my favorite period of Bowie I still needed this for the collection and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. This is a great pressing which serves the production well.
