A reel of Ampex 456 audio tape, containing a 24track recording with studio recordings of David Bowie laying down vocals and other parts for a version of what would later be released as 'Pretty Pink Rose' by Adrian Belew though this recording does not feature any involvement by Adrian Belew. Also Bowie vocals and other parts for an unreleased/unpublished song - with 'Lucille' lyric refrain, featuring Mick Ronson on guitar. Also contains recordings of Bowie recording a version of Dylan's 'Like a Rolling Stone'. Tape bears handwritten notes 'David Bowie Safety of Slave Reel' and then in a second hand '+ Mick Ronson GTR + 00Cal master'. The version of 'Pretty Pink Rose' is different to the released version, the 'Lucille' track has never previously been published and it is likely that the recording of 'Like a Rolling Stone' differs also from the released version.
