Bowie's 1.OUTSIDE 30th Anniversary RSD Releases


on January 30, 2026, Parlophone Records announced two very special David Bowie releases for Record Store Day 2026, taking place on 18th April. Both releases relate to Bowie’s cult classic 1.OUTSIDE album, which reunited him with his Berlin-era collaborator, Brian Eno and celebrated its 30th anniversary in September last year.




The neon pink 12” single of ‘HALLO SPACEBOY’ features six remixes of the track, two by Pet Shop Boys, three by Soft Cell’s Dave Ball and Ingo Vauk, and a previously unheard remix by Tim Simenon of Bomb The Bass fame.



Initially released on February 19, 1996 on CD and as a pink vinyl 7”, ‘HALLO SPACEBOY’ was the third and final single from the 1.OUTSIDE album. The day the single was released, Bowie received the Outstanding Contribution To Music honour at The Brit Awards, and performed the track with Pet Shop Boys, as well as ‘Under Pressure’ and ‘Moonage Daydream’ with his own band.


Famously, at the show, David wore a pair of Katherine Hamnett kitten heels, shocking the somewhat conservative Brits’ audience.


The shoes, along with the Vivienne Westwood earring and Thierry Mugler suit, are available to view as part of the David Bowie Archive, V&A East Storehouse Order An Object service Suit & Heels and Earring.


Also announced for released for Record Store Day is EXCERPTS FROM OUTSIDE, a half-speed cut utilising the 2021 Brian Eno approved remasters, pressed on clear vinyl.


Released on 25th September 1995, 1.OUTSIDE was Bowie’s twentieth studio album, subtitled The Nathan Adler Diaries: A Hyper-cycle. The CD release was the full 75-minute song suite; however, the vinyl release was an abridged version of the record titled EXCERPTS FROM OUTSIDE.


The full version of the album was finally released on vinyl as a definitive version in 2021 as part of the BRILLIANT ADVENTURES box set before being broken out, but this firm fan favourite has been out of print for over a decade.
