Notes
"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 David Bowie - 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).

Photos are from my personal collection.
I bought this in USA in early 1980. It's been part of my Bowie bootleg collection ever since, but now it's time to "Move On".
The run out groove has "The Actor 79" on side one, This really is a good copy of the WEMBLEY WIZARD.
Post in UK only...sorry!
