David Bowie has announced that he'll be releasing a limited edition of the classic 'Changes' on picture disc for this year's Record Store Day. 

The career-changing track from the timeless Hunky Dory will be released through independent record stores on 18 April, and will be a beautiful double AA-side backed by 'Eight Line Poem' 

A statement reads: "Collectors of the 40th anniversary series of picture discs (which celebrate the original RCA releases of Bowie’s singles), have long bemoaned the absence of 'Changes' from the series on account of it being the first Bowie single on RCA."

They continued: "For some mad reason, the 40th anniversary releases commenced with Starman, and we didn’t really appease fans with the April 1st story last year regarding a Changes picture disc. So it is with those reasons in mind that it gives us great pleasure to finally announce this release."

But that's not all, as RSD will also see Bowie release a limited edition of 'Kingdom Come' - with one side featuring the original Tom Verlaine version of the track and the other has Bowie's rendition from the album Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps). Check that out below:
