Album Cover
David Bowie
The Wembley Wizard Touches The Dial

Album UK 1979 on Hallowien Jack Records label
Rock (Art Rock, Classic Rock)

"Recorded live at Wembley Stadium London, England. 7/5/76" In B/W picture cover. Even though cover states 'Recorded live at Wembley Stadium London', the actual venue would have been Empire Pool, Wembley, later known as Wembley Arena. Originally released in Japan by a Japanese label, Marc, as "Don't Touch That Dial", with a single production run of 2,000. See Don't Touch That Dial. Japanese law at the time allowed the production and sale of any LPs by non-JASRAC artists, so long as the recording had been made before 1978. Thus, the original Marc release was perfectly legal under Japanese law. This bootleg was then released by the BPI in order to track down and bust a chain of bootleggers (Operation Moonbeam). The result was successful. Because of the success of this sting operation, only a small part of the stock came in circulation. "Stay" is not listed on the cover. Content is same as LP "Don't Touch That Dial" (1976/77).
