Originally released in the United States on 4th November 1970 The Man Who Sold The World album was produced by Tony Visconti and recorded at Trident and Advision Studios in London but was not released until the following April in the U.K. with different artwork.

The 2020 re-release of the album under its Metrobolist moniker, remixed by original producer Tony Visconti, it is preceded by the digital single release of "The Man Who Sold The World (2020 mix)." The track was not released as a single by Bowie at the time, only appearing as the B-side to Life On Mars? on RCA Records in June '73. It wasn't until the 1974 version by Scottish singer Lulu (produced by Bowie and Mick Ronson) that the song gained mainstream attention. In subsequent years, Bowie's 1979 performance of the song on Saturday Night Live and Nirvana's cover on the classic MTV Unplugged album, among others, would establish and reaffirm its status as one of his most beloved songs.

Bowie performed the track live later in his career, including an electronic arrangement during 1995's Outside Tour (as featured on the live album Ouvrez Le Chien) and in an acoustic arrangement in 1996 for the recent Record Store Day release ChangesNowBowie.

Metrobolist 'new' artwork is based on the original Mike Weller 1970 sleeve design, copies 1 - 1970 will be hand numbered white vinyl and copies 1971 - 2020 will be hand numbered on gold vinyl, the remaining unnumbered stock will be on black vinyl all randomly distributed.
