‘The Man Who Fell to Earth’: Soundtrack to David Bowie Film Finally Being Released

One of David Bowie’s most revered films turns 40 this year, a milestone being marked two different ways: “The Man Who Fell to Earth” is returning to English cinemas and its soundtrack is finally being released for the first time. The CD version will be available on September 9, the same day English moviegoers will have the chance to revisit Nicolas Roeg’s film about an alien (Bowie) experiencing our humble planet, while a box set including a 2xLP is set to follow on November 18.
