The song is available to hear online now

A rare David Bowie recording is up for auction tomorrow (September 2) - and is available to hear online now.

The track, called 'Mocking Bird', is a rare recording of Bowie's first band The Konrads, and is available to listen to online now at Last.fm.

The audio clip is part of a collection of over 5,000 Joe Meek recordings which are expected to go for about £300,000 at the 'It's More Than Rock'n'Roll' auction in London.

A Tom Jones track that hasn't been broadcast since 1962 is also in the collection.
