David Bowie will mark this year’s Record Store Day on 19 April by reissuing two singles.
The UK will see a 40th anniversary re-release of “Rock‘n’Roll Suicide”, while “1984″ will be reissuing in North America. Both come on limited edition 7-inch picture discs, as seen beneath.
The b-side to “Rock‘n’Roll Suicide” is a recording of Bowie retiring his Ziggy Stardust character live at the Hammersmith Odeon in 1973, while ”1984″ will become backed by a live rendition of the track taken from the Dick Cavett Show.
Bowie released his comeback album The Next Day earlier this year.
