I've read everything available about this new NLMD release but their is no evidence that Bowie planned it.If there was any real evidence they would be shouting about it from the rooftops.I think they are telling porkies. He had plenty of time after the iselect TWC remix but he never did it.I'm still not convinced.

McNulty says “I remember going over to his house and he was kind of laughing about it a bit,” McNulty says. “‘You know the album, right?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, of course.’ ‘Well, check this out.’ And he outlined three ideas for the new version: He wanted a new arrangement, he wanted strings and he wanted real drums. He really did not like any of the electronic drums on the entire album. He would listen to it and just be like, ‘Ugh.’ I’d go to his office and work with him on it and it was very Philip Glass style. ‘Just do a variation on this and embellish it.’ He had a vision.”

and it is stated that "Mostly, McNulty had to guess at what Bowie would have wanted from this version, going off only what he’d gleaned from the “Time Will Crawl” session."

You are suggesting that people who were friends of his are lying to justify an album reproduction, which there is also no evidence.

Bowie loved the MM 2008 mix of TWC and he was keen on a project whether he went ahead with it or not. He was a guy of many interests and it is not beyond imagination to think he just never got around to.

EDIT: And another point to consider when berating anybody for potentially lying. They respected Bowie enough to leave Too Dizzy of this box completely. Seems like they respected his wishes to me.
