The David Bowie Isolar - 1976 Tour [Kevin Cann, "David Bowie: A Chronology", Vermilion, 1983, ISBN: 0091538319] was a concert tour in support of the album "Station To Station". It opened on 2 February 1976 at the Pacific National Exhibition Coliseum, Vancouver, British Columbia, and continued through North America and Europe, concluding at the Pavillon de Paris in Paris, France, on 18 May 1976. The tour is commonly referred to as Thin White Duke Tour, [Nicholas Pegg, "The Complete David Bowie", Reynolds & Hearn Ltd, 2004, ISBN 1-903111-73-0] The Station to Station Tour, [Pimm Jal de la Parra, "David Bowie: The Concert Tapes", P.J. Publishing, 1985, ISBN 909001005X] and The White Light Tour. [David Buckley, "Strange Fascination: The Definitive Biography of David Bowie", Virgin Books, 1999, ISBN 1-85227-784X]

History

The performances began with a projected sequence of surrealist images, depicting a razor blade cutting into an eyeball, from the 1928 film "Un Chien Andalou", [Christopher Sandford, "Bowie: Loving the Alien", Warner Books, 1997, ISBN 0751519243] by Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dali. The visual element of the performances incorporated banks of fluorescent white light set against black backdrops creating a stark spectacle on a stage largely devoid of props or other visual distractions.

The Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Uniondale, New York, performance on 23 March 1976 was recorded by RCA Records with extracts broadcast by The King Biscuit Radio Network. Two songs from the performance were later included on the 1991 Rykodisc re-issue of the "Station to Station" album.
