1982.04.16 Zürich from "Good evening Zürich"

I do have a very clean copy of the 'Long Life To The Queen' LP bootleg, and uploading that one is something I wanted to do anyway.

But it's gonna take time, the bootleg LP also has the speed issues, wrong track order, and can use some EQ in some spots.

I have a very decent turntable, cartridge, and analog -> digital converter so the quality will be alright. I'll do it in 24/96 so that everything that's in it, will come out.
I did some work on the track listing already (about a half year ago) using the CD bootleg. The CD Bootleg (just as the LP) is a gigantic jig-saw with loose bits and pieces everywhere, and by just listening to the audience (and a lot of patience), and some cut and paste work, this is what I think is the right track listing:

Tie Your Mother Down
Action This Day
Play The Game
Somebody To Love
Staying Power
Get Down, Make Love
Liar
Under Pressure
Love Of My Life
Back Chat (improvisation)
Save Me
Mustapha (intro only)
Fat Bottomed Girls
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Death On Two Legs (intro)
Bohemian Rhapsody
Now I'm Here
Dragon Attack
Now I'm Here (reprise)
Another One Bites The Dust
Sheer Heart Attack
We Will Rock You
We Are The Champions
God Save The Queen

Feel free to comment on this, by the way.

I did something similar with the CD bootleg, but nothing beats a clean transfer of the LP and going over it with a fine tooth comb.

Would love to hear what you've come up with.

24/96 transfers are way to go.

Thank you!

any news of transfer?

No news on the transfer so far I'm afraid :-(
I haven't had the time to do it so far. And this one is gonna take a lot of time to do.

On the other hand, about 8 months since I promised to do it, so I'll try to get on it as soon as possible.

No problem

It's been more then a year since I promised to make a transfer from the vinyl bootleg, and some good news for now, it's almost ready!

It took me a while because I had some serious hardware problems (most of them are solved) and I didn't had much time for it the last few months.

I thinks it's almost ready to upload but I want to ask your help. Because I want this version to be the best possible from this source, I want to make sure that whatever I put out, is the best.

This bootleg has two major problems:
- The set list is meshed up
- It runs to fast

The first problem (set list) is solved, but for the speed issue I want to hear some opinions. So I decided to make a few short samples that are speed corrected. You can find them here:

Let me know what you think!

thanks for your work, after listening to your samples I'd say it runs too slow now. I will try some settings and let you know how much it is tomorrow

In my opinion it'd be a much more worth while task to do a similar job with the original "Long Life To The Queen" bootleg, since there are many parts that are edited out of this version to squeeze it onto a single CD.

Sorry I didn't make that clear in my last post, but this IS about the vinyl 'long live to the queen' boot. See a few posts earlier.

No, you definitely made it clear. It's my reading comprehension that needs the work.

Great job on the remaster ! I'd happily have this one in my collection.

Do you mean the way the speed is now, or just how it sounds? Because I'm still curious to know how people (preferably with skills) think about the speed. And you have done dozens of those things.

I simply compared the taped opera part of Bohemian Rhapsody of this show with the Milton Keynes show, and slowed it down until it equaled. Then I used that setting for the complete concert. To me it sounds good this way.

But since 'Fallen Queen' has the opinion that it's to slow now, I can use some input.

If anything, I'd say it's a very slight bit too fast.

The BoRhap opera section is usually my benchmark too. Great minds think alike.

Nice EQing job.

Funny, I didn't do anything on the EQ. It's just a fine example of how good vinyl records can sound.

Anyway, since there aren't any others opinions I'll hope to finish it soon and I'll share it in 24/96.

Thanks for your help, and I just don't hope they close this site before it's shared ;-)
