Very interesting list!

I agree with many choices but:
-->Take out Montreal '78 and replace it with Vancouver
--> take out Boston'82 and replace it with New York '82 second night
--> take out Birmingham 9-2-84 and replace it with Stuttgart'84, a simply stunning show in my opinion

I'm especially glad you mention Sapporo'82 and Sapporo '79 (second night). I really hope Mr. Peach taped one of those Sapporo'79 shows... Also, Dortmund'82 is a nice pick, great show from Freddie!

In my point of view...Works Tour tried to make a review of a lot of songs that they doesn't played regularly ( KYA, Liar, Seven Seas, Great king Rat, Stone Cold Crazy, etc.).
But, the result wasn`t good...cause, Roger drums rang like a jar of tuna, Freddie´s voices wasn't in good shape.
Set list good. executions...not so good

Can anybody provide an answer to these questions please regarding any copies you may have of the following recording?

Wembley 7.9.84.

At the start of TYMD, is the audio slightly muffled?
Can a female voice from the audience be heard talking over God save the Queen for a few seconds?

I only ask as I may have another unshared source, although Bo Rhap is incomplete on it.

Thanks.

The Works tour - one of my favourite tours.

Also, Dortmund'82 is a nice pick, great show from Freddie!

Funny...I was there and it was far from being a good night. It proves my theory that recordings do not really tell the truth nor present the full picture.....Freddie was in a very bad mood that night...
