Background
Like Spying Through a Keyhole, the box set was released to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Bowie's 1969 album David Bowie. Two of the six demos, "Space Oddity" and "An Occasional Dream", had already been released in 2009 on the 40th anniversary reissue of that album.[2]
The material was recorded in January 1969 to promote Bowie & Hutch to potential record labels, as David had just been dropped by Deram.[3]
