Like I said in the other Vienna thread, this show has never been bootlegged. Someone just created artwork and a title. I got my copy from someone who got it from the taper. No bootleg company has ever used this recording to make money.
Glad you're all enjoying the shows. They're among my favourites.

Thank you very much for the merge of the final night of the 1984 European tour.

Just listened to the first 10 songs and Freddie's voice is really in poor shape. Incredible to hear how much weaker he sounds compared to Stuttgart(my first unofficial Queen-show so I have something special with that show) just 3 days earlier.
The European tour was really one of extremes for Freddie. Some shows have him in truly great shape, with that beautiful voice of him sounding powerful and able to hit nice notes and other shows have him in poor shape.
That said, I still like those shows. There are always those other 3 fellows doing their stuff and doing it wonderfully:-)
This recording and the fact the shape of his voice got even worse in South Africa(to the point he had to cancel shows) makes his brilliant performance in Sun City on 19/10/1984 all the more surprising(it was to me anyway).
I'm looking forward to hearing part 2 of Sun City, hopefully it's as good as part 1:-)
