To mark what would've been David Bowie's 70th birthday, a brand new EP has been released, as well as a video for his track "No Plan".
The new short-player collects Bowie's final recordings, taken from roughly the same time as last year's stunning Blackstar record. The EP features the title track, "Lazarus", "When I Met You", and "Killing A Little Time".
Tom Hingston directs the new "No Plan" visuals. The store in the video is named Newton Electrical - a nod to Thomas Newton, the lead role in both Bowie's Lazarus musical and The Man Who Fell To Earth, Nicolas Roeg's 1976 film starring Bowie.
In related news, a new documentary suggests that Blackstar might not have been the deliberate parting gift it's been seen as.
