Bowie's Heathen Nominated For Mercury Music Prize

Bowie's new CD Heathen has been nominated for the Mercury Music Prize, the high-profile award given annually for the best album of the year. The winner will be announced in mid-September.

Meanwhile copies of MOONAGE DAYDREAM are still selling at a phenomenal rate. News of the book is being spread worldwide by the insert card included with copies of EMI's repackaged Ziggy Stardust CD. Well over a thousand copies have been sold already and we still haven't seen a finished copy yet - this should be in September. Sorry if you are waiting for your copy, but the strength of demand for Moonage Daydream does go to show why pre-ordering of Genesis limited editions is advised.
