Uncut Magazine must really love David Bowie. This is the second CD they put together featuring cover songs of some of Bowie's greatest songs. The first Bowie cover collection (Starman: Rare and Exclusive Version of 18 Classic David Bowie Songs) were from their March 2003 issue.
Most of songs on the new CD, Rebel Rebel - A Tribute to David Bowie (available free on their June 2008 issue of Uncut Magazine) were studio recording and most have appeared elsewhere. Some live recording, such as Mott The Hoople, didn't sound that good to me.
I haven't had the chance to read the David Bowie article, but flipping through it, it seems to be quotes from famous and modern musicians talking about 30 of David Bowie's greatest songs.
As of this writing, I'm too lazy to find out where each song previously appeared in, but I did noticed that they used The Last Town Chorus' version of "Modern Love" on this album.
