ANNOUNCE : MAGIC AT KNEBWORTH 2LP (stevenage aug. 9th 1986)

Here is the LP tranfser from MAGIC AT KNEBWORTH 2lp (rock solid records) RSR-250.

I made this upload because this source is left blank on SirGH his website, so I for the fan who wants it all...

I don´t know if this source is used for any other release because (people are gonna kill me for this) I personally am not really fond of the Knebworth show. Because though Fred delivers his best, his throat is completely worn out, and something about his sound I think is very irritating. Therfore I'd rather listnen to the Vienna shows or the Budapest  , these shows are in better quality as well...

Again this is my 3rd cdr copy of the transfer :
1st standalone pioneer cdr audio only
2 nd : cd's from 1 to harddrive : cdr burner computer
3rd: cd's from 2 1 to 1 copy on computer but without disc at once option.

WHY ? Because at the time folklore said that making a cdr copy of a cdr copy of cdr copy of cdr copy of cdr copy will detoriate the sound quality.... That's what I did believed back then.

So I kept the 1st. listned to the 2nd. and copied and traded the 3rd. source....

But I cannot seem to find my 1st. edition from some shows... and now we have that irritating silience between the tracks...

So could some expert like GregSYNTH remove the pauses between the tracks and reupload them again ?

Feel free to reupload in other formats like torrents....or do anything you like with this!

Hi
Thanks for the upload. This should be quite easy to fix, so downloading it now and taking a look.
I'll let you know my findings shortly.

BTW. The first link is unavailable at the moment.

I managed to catch both links and am downloading them now.  Thanks so much for sharing this!
When I finish I'll make a torrent and put it on this thread, since I think it is likely to be superceded by another version.  Stay tuned!

Here's the torrent.  Hope it helps someone!

NOTE: Crazy Little Thing Called Love is there twice because it was in both zip folders.

UPDATE:

Still can't download first link. (unavailable)
Findings so far:-
Track 1. Breaks at 2:53:8
Track 2. Break change at 2:21.9
Track 5. ok
Track 6. clicks but ok
Track 9. clicks but ok
Track 10. clicks and hiss but ok
Track 13. ok
Track 16. clicks but ok
Track 17. clicks but ok

Sound quality is quite good.
These can all be fixed quite easily.
I could be wrong but this looks like an mp3 in lossless clothing. No big deal in that for me, just bandwidth.
Still trying to download the first link...arghh!!!

Excellent.. thanks Ghost and Ginger for making this happen.  This is a different audience source than the ones that came later, so we have four now, including the video.

Btw, Bohemian Rhapsody is missing !  Is it in the original megaupload file?  There's even a gap in the track listing... track 13 is Tutti Frutti, and then track 15 is Hammer To Fall.

Thanks a lot, man.

I am the direct opposite of you - I am OBSESSED with the Knebworth concert :-) Much better concert than Wembley, and of course the last concert in the classical Queen lineup, so it's very special and definitely worth getting even these alternate sources :-)

But Bob is correct, BoRhap is missing - I downloaded the original zip files from megaupload and it's not there, and Crazy Little Thing Called Love is there twice, so I guess it's an packing error. Could you please upload also the missing file ?

EDIT : bohrhap is added in the topic.

Excellent.. many thanks.

Thank You so much for this alternative recording!!
audience  is more audible    compared to a bit dry "thank you all" boot ,,and that's very interesting
 the speech before  who wants to live forever is missing on this source

Lots of things are missing.  But even with the cuts, it's now my favourite of the four audience sources.

Four ? I know I missed a LOT of things last weeks, but are there now suddenly four different confirmed audience sources ?

Thanks for all those rips, nice to have them on computer now ! Indeed, there is some great stuff on all (well, most of) those lPs, especially the pre-CD years of course.
Nice items, and nice to see such a sharing spirit.

Thanks !!
