Wessex Auction Rooms' Martin Hughes with the David Bowie acetate.
The Bowie vinyl is catalogued as ‘unreleased and never before heard’.
The disc is from the Orbit Music publishing library and has an estimate of £3000-5000 at Wessex’s vinyl records, music and film memorabilia auction on July 24.
Bowie was signed as a songwriter to Orbit Music in the mid-sixties, which was owned and run by the producer Shel Talmy who also worked with The Who and The Kinks.
Auctioneer Martin Hughes said: “As one of only a few people in the world who have heard the recording, I am still amazed that this musical treasure has been uncovered after all of these years.”
A soundclip from the track titled ‘I Do Believe I Love You’ can be heard here on YouTube.
