Early David Bowie collection to be released including songs with Jimmy Page

An album of previously unreleased David Bowie songs from his pre-Bowie days, when he went by Davy Jones, is set to be released on September 22.

Shel Talmy, best known for working with The Who and The Kinks, produced the album in 1965 that is now set to be released on September 18 as David Bowie: The Shel Talmy Recordings.

The album will feature 10 songs from the late rock star that have never been shared with the public. As well as his solo work, it includes tracks from two different bands he was in: The Manish Boys and Davie Jones & The Lower Third.

'I Want Your Love,' a track from the album by Davie Jones & The Lower Third, has been released already.

Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page is featured on guitar in songs with The Manish Boys, who played guitar in their version of 'I Pity the Fool.'

It also features pianist Nicky Hopkins, whose work includes collaborations with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, The Who and The Kinks.

David Bowie : The Shel Talmy Recordings

David Bowie's music label described the album as "the most complete collection of tracks recorded by a nascent David Bowie."

Before his breakthrough with Space Oddity in 1969 and his Ziggy Stardust era in the early 1970s, 'I Want Your Love' shows a blues-style beginning of the artist. At this point in his career, Bowie, born David Jones, went by Davy (or sometimes Davie) Jones before he changed it to David Bowie in 1966.

In the sleeve notes about the album, musician and music historian Alec Palao said, "David Bowie the artist is a book of chapters, the turn of each page delivering something completely different and unexpected from the last. And in perusal, a cardinal error would be to pit any of these episodes against the others, when in fact each fascinating phase in his career should be considered complementary."

Bowie, known as one of the world's most influential musicians to this day, died at age 69 from liver cancer after an 18-month long battle on January 10, 2016 at his home in New York City. Now, a decade after his death, the earliest work of the incomparably mysterious artist is being shared.

"This collection, a primary chapter if not the very earliest instalment in David’s musical journey, deserves legitimate consideration," Palao wrote.

"It is invariably tempting to search for clues in an artist’s tentative beginnings, and Bowie’s juvenilia has been dissected more than most...the sounds here should not be judged by the standards of his later career, but by the standards of what was happening in Britain at that precise point in time...they speak as loudly of the excitement of London and its music scene in that pivotal year of 1965 as they do for the launch of its brightest future star."
