Bowie at the Beeb is a compilation album by the English singer-songwriter David Bowie, first released in 2000. Originally, it came in a three-CD set, the third, bonus CD being a live recording made on 27 June 2000 at the Portland BBC Radio Theatre, part of his Mini Tour. Later editions contain only the first two CDs.
Releases:
The first pressing mistakenly included the second (disc 2, track 13) version of the song "Ziggy Stardust" twice on disc two, missing the first (disc 2, track 5) version. EMI declined to issue corrected replacement discs to customers, instead mailing out one-song CDs of the first version.
This compilation also features a previously unreleased song, "Looking for a Friend" (disc 1, track 15), which John Peel said would be released as a single by Arnold Corns. The single was later cancelled.

I've become more leery of post-mortem releases of legendary acts, but this is an amazing collection. It's David Bowie at his best early in his career. My favorite recordings are live studio recordings because there's not the unnatural production of a well rehearsed multi-track recording or the distortion of the venue acoustics and the interaction with the audience. Because Bowie and friends are such pros this collection gives you really cool alternate versions of Bowie classics as well as some cool covers with all the spontaneity of a live performance. Really, I've envied how British music seems to have this vast library of live studio recordings which are every bit as great as the fully produced and engineered studio recordings.
This collection offers a nice cross section of David Bowie's early recordings as well as some interesting insight from his discussions with the host. This is a great collection worth having for the casual fan such as myself or the super fan.
