David Bowie's 'Blackstar' on CD. BLACKSTAR, David’s final studio album, was released on 8th January, 2016. Bowie and Visconti went to Donny McCaslin’s jazz quartet playing live in New York after working with him on the track ‘Sue (Or In A Season Of Crime)’. Tony Visconti: “Donny’s quartet was no ordinary jazz band, they were super musicians at the same level as classical musicians in top symphony orchestras. David told me that this band, with Mark Guiliana – drums, Tim Lefebvre – bass, and Jason Lindner – keyboards, will be the band for the recording of .” Every one of the tracks for BLACKSTAR were each recorded in one day; Visconti recalls, “The first song for the album began with “’Tis a Pity She Was a Whore,” on 7th January. With a couple of rehearsals with David singing in the isolation booth, we were ready to go. Take one was perfect. We told Donny the take was fabulous. He thanked us and asked, “What’s the next song?” I forgot that jazz musicians are one-take experts. This was not a normal thing for people who make Rock and Pop music. It usually takes many hours to get that great take. Just to play it safe we asked for another take and Donny complied.” Release Date: 24 July 2026 Tracklist: 1. ★2. ’tis A Pity She Was A Whore3.
