My favorite is "Live At The Bowl", if for no other reason because of the brilliant way the songs from Hot Space were adapted to the stage. Only great musicians are up to this kind of challenge, and the guys shine throughout the whole concert: Freddie's vocals have a wonderful R&B edge that suits most songs just perfectly. Brian's guitar work is powerful and groovy, and Roger and John beautifully replace the synths with their crisp playing.
A great album!
A great album!

What is there to like about Wembley? It had limited song selection and Freddie's voice was bad.

it was not so bad in this way.... Freddies voice wasn't bad and the musics was very great(didn't have so much hits, but musics was great).... and Bri, rog, John and Freddie's performance was very great..... in my opinion! ;D

what is there to like about wembley?....why get on someone who likes a particular show?...that's Just plain stupid.. everyone says it was a hits show, but what other show that was recorded has radio ga ga, a kind of magic, friends will be freinds, one vision, tear it up. Obviously you can't find these songs on live killers or at the bowl, so why are you complaining about song selection?....also, besides a few songs like "another one bites the dust" and "break free" which were horrible. overall I love freddie's voice in this show. very powerful, operatic. Love it!....lap of the gods, magic, radio ga ga, who wants to live forever, Imprompu, tie your mother down, under pressure are some examples I love. I still like the earlier shows the best, but no reason to put down a huge event that was wembely.

The Manheim bootleg I have, but officially Live @ The Bowl I'd go with, Wembley 86 was a great gig DVD wise but the 1992 double CD for me doesn't sound too good to my ears

LIVE KILLERS because for one it has obviously tracks that didnt survive into the 80's live setlist like dreamers ball death on 2 legs spread your wings dont stop me now and ive gotten a little burned out on the other live stuff with the always included under pressure bites the dust crazy little thing, and later radio ga ga and friends will be friends

Live Killers is a rock album while Wembley is a pop album

Agreed, songs like bites the dust, under pressure are played out. Though if they played those same songs that were on live killers over and over in the eighties, and never played a kind of magic, and radio ga ga, the same people would be crying that they never heard them play those songs. some people will cry no matter what. In my opinion a kind of magic at wembley is Just great as 70's queen, it's perfect. We got all the songs that we need from the live albums. Live killers has the 70's stuff, live at the bowl has the early 80's, wembley has the mid 80's. People still cry.

Yeah, that's a good point.

Many key tracks from the first 6 albums are still missing from official releases. But more people would complain about the absence of Ga Ga, Magic, etc. than are complaining about the current lack of It's Late, White Queen, etc.

well, maybe we'll get one more 70's release and some of those missing songs will be there. White Queen in particular is brilliant live. Maybe even better than the studio version.
