So here we are, and roughly 9 months after its original
release here comes a limited deluxe etc re-issue. I'll be glad to have these
extra tracks, remixes and 'God Bless The Girl' on proper CD, but really, is it necessary?
Or in the best interest of the fans etc... I will buy, but will feels a little aggrieved
in doing so. Details below anyway...
Here the blurb from DB's facebook post...
3-DISC THE NEXT DAY EXTRA DUE FOR NOVEMBER
“And another day…”
Some of you may have heard vague whisperings about this release, but DavidBowie.com has just posted all the exciting details regarding a 3-disc version of David Bowie’s brilliant The Next Day album.
Called The Next Day Extra, the set includes the original 14-track CD, a 10-track CD of bonus tracks and a DVD of the four promotional films made for the album: Where Are We Now?, The Stars (Are Out Tonight), The Next Day and Valentine’s Day.
The 10-track bonus CD includes four previously unreleased tracks, two new mixes and God Bless The Girl, the track that was only released on the Japanese issue of The Next Day. The remaining three tracks gather up the bonus tracks from the deluxe version of the album.
Here’s the tracklist for The Next Day Extra…
01 Atomica
02 Love Is Lost (Hello Steve Reich Mix by James Murphy for The DFA)
03 Plan

The whole thing comes in a tasty new Barnbrook package with a lyric booklet and a book of stills from the promo films.
