A compilation of previously unheard David Bowie recordings from 1965 is scheduled for release in September. The collection, titled *David Bowie: The Shel Talmy Recordings*, brings together material recorded when Bowie was performing under the name Davy Jones at the start of his career in mid-1960s London.
Multiple outlets report that the release includes tracks that feature Jimmy Page on guitar, predating Page’s later fame with Led Zeppelin. The recordings capture Bowie’s early musical style before his mainstream breakthrough, when he was producing blues-influenced and occasionally psychedelic pop-rock.
The compilation draws on sessions linked to Shel Talmy, a producer associated with a number of influential UK records from the period. While the outlets describe the historical context and highlight Page’s involvement, they do not provide full track listings or specific details of each song in the excerpted coverage. The focus is on the arrival of archival, previously unavailable recordings from Bowie’s 1965 era and their contribution to understanding his early development as an artist.
