1986.07.05 Slane - merge

Queen
Slane, Ireland
Slane Castle
July 5, 1986

This is a merge of three versions to (almost) complete the show.  The bulk of this version comes from first generation cassettes that were purchased from the taper the day after the show.  Much credit goes to our currently awol Josedequeso for tracking them down.

* Version 1:
AUD > Master Cassettes > [(2) TDK90] 1st Gen Cassettes > WAV > CDR (1) > WAV (right channel removed in GoldWave) > FLAC level 8

** Version 2:
AUD > ? > CDR (x) > WAV > FLAC level 8

*** video source:
AUD > ? > DVD-R (x) > WAV > FLAC level 8

Part of Hello Mary Lou and Tutti Frutti are missing from the first generation cassettes, as the tape was damaged beyond repair.  However, unlike the old unmarked gen copy of the same source (version 2), Now I'm Here is present.  This copy cuts out part way through Freddie's closing remarks at the end of the show.  The right channel has been replaced by doubling the left channel, as the right channel was very weak-sounding, despite it being a mono recording to begin with.

Both versions of the audience tape have the four cuts on disc 1, so it's safe to assume that those cuts are on the master as well.  The video source fills in three of these four gaps.  Thanks to Jumeteor for pointing out the need to further improve upon the previous merge of sources, and to Pittrek for supplying the video source.

Disc 1:

 1) One Vision */***
 2) Tie Your Mother Down *
 3) In The Lap Of The Gods...Revisited *
 4) Seven Seas Of Rhye *
 5) fight in the audience *
 6) Tear It Up */***
 7) A Kind Of Magic ***/*
 8) Under Pressure *
 9) Another One Bites The Dust [cut] *
 10) Who Wants To Live Forever *
 11) I Want To Break Free *
 12) impromptu *
 13) Gimme Some Lovin' / Keep Yourself Alive (improv) *
 14) guitar solo *
 15) Now I'm Here *

Disc 2:

 1) Love Of My Life *
 2) Is This The World We Created? *
 3) (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care *
 4) Hello Mary Lou */**
 5) Tutti Frutti **
 6) Bohemian Rhapsody *
 7) Hammer To Fall *
 8) Crazy Little Thing Called Love *
 9) Radio Ga Ga *
10) We Will Rock You *
11) Friends Will Be Friends *
12) We Are The Champions *
13) Freddie banter / DJ speech */**

There are only 4 zip files now because most of this version is mono sound, making for easier compression.

Another great share, Bob!

So if I understand correctly the "* thing" the better source is from an unknown generation and the "worse" from a 1st gen.

Another great upload! :-)

It's really weird, he just disappeared! He's in my MSN list but suddenly he never was online anymore, he didn't answer any email anymore, ....

I hope he's alright. Like you I wonder what has happened to him.
