I Can't Give Everything Away (2002-2016), released September 12, is the sixth and final mega-box set in Rhino's series that collects most, if not all, of Bowie's recorded output. Available in 13-CD, digital and 18-LP iterations, the set collects the four studio albums, two EPs, and two live albums Bowie recorded in his final decades, along with Re:Call 6 which features 41 non-album tracks. The set also includes a book featuring archival photos and essays, including some by Bowie's frequent co-producer Tony Visconti.
Oldman opened up about his connection with Bowie during a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, where he emphasized the depths of their friendship: "We laughed a lot - a lot. He was very, very, very funny, David," the Oscar-winning actor revealed. "And we sort of had similar kinds of backgrounds, grew up in similar neighborhoods" (Bowie and Oldman both grew up in South London).
David Bowie reflected on his creative burst in 1970s West Berlin, stating that the studio's proximity to the Wall gave him a sense of being on the edge, both mentally and emotionally. He expressed a need for a dangerous level of creativity to thrive, which resonated with the vibrant, divisive culture of Berlin at that time.
