(Info from Micke). Trivia There are multiple cover photos to The Man Who Sold The World. These include the infamous drag photo, the cartoon, and the high kick. The bonus tracks Moonage Daydream and Hang Onto Yourself were released as a single under the name Arnold Corns in 1971. While the name was inspired by David's favourite Pink Floyd song Arnold Layne, the group itself never really existed. In publicity photos Bowie appeared alongside dress designer Freddi Buretti, who was supposedly the group's lead singer and a discovery of David's. Both of these songs were later reworked for the Ziggy Stardust album. In spite of what the Rykodisc release notes say, the version of Holy Holy included here is in fact the 1973 Spiders remake featured on the B side of the single Diamond Dogs. The original version can only be picked up on the bootleg album Changesthreeandahalf. (Information courtesy of Punk Floyd). (Info from http://www.teenagewildlife.com/)
