Boston Garden (23.07.1982) new source 1'st gen with 90 min show !

Hello. I'm collaborating here in Queenzone posting this torrent originally shared in Dimeadozen by user "glasnostrd19". All credits for him.

Original notes writed:

* Contrast Clause * Contrast Clause * Contrast Clause *
this concert was also posted (on July 20, 2012) from an unknown lineage recording
(except "from silver CD") by fallenqueen at torrent #413523.
that torrent includes 3 concerts, this one from Boston, Montreal (7/21) and
N.Y.C. 7/28. the uploader mentioned that his torrent is slightly EQ'ed.
this one is not EQ'ed at all and is just the Boston concert.
it is a raw transfer from my rarely played 1st generation cassette,
which I probably got just a few months after the show.
I've never been sure that this recording is complete,
but it appears to include all of the songs included in the
previous posting, which lists it as a complete concert.
the lineage info. of this one is more complete,
missing only the type of master tape used to make the recording.
that is included in the info. file below.
it is likely from a different recording since I haven't posted this before 7/23/2012 anywhere. hope you like it. just do not sell it. Ian

ENJOY ! :)

thank you very much for this new source!

That's great! Quality is very good. Now we finally can compile a complete show without a gap in Guitar Solo from two sources.

thanks for this new share

This looks like a 1st gen copy of Rob's master that we already have here on Queenzone. The cut in the guitar solo apears to be in the same exact place.

it looks different, for example the tracks get down make love and guitar solo are long 8 minutes in the rob's master and 13 minutes in this 1st gen.

also the intro of Save Me looks different

for me these are 2 different sources...

It looks pretty much interesting, any chance to upload it in mediafire, please?

No way I would ever lose 5 minutes of a show for a single tape flip. 30 seconds tops.

Many thanks for sharing this!
I sounds a bit better and also somehow ''wider'' than the old source. To my ears it sounds like a different source. Or else it must be a much better transfer than the old source.. Any more ideas?

Hi Harry and friends, I edited the announcement of this topic, because after hearing this version again this show actually appears to be really a [b]new source :-)[/b]

Thanks for the share.
Wich source sounds better? This or Rob's tape?

Kind regards,

You didn't. The solo track on this file set is a mess, it was clearly edited by someone who didn't know Queen shows all that well

The first 1:20 is actualy the synth efects at the end of GDML.
The solo starts proper at about 1:30 Then cuts and restarts at 5:16, from there on it apears to be complete without any further cuts. So by properly editing the solo section, we should have the complete show from these two tapes.

I thought it was strange that Brian did an 11 min+ solo on this tour when we know he was not particularly happy at this point in his life and carreer.

I only listened to the first track and the solo, but based on crowd noise in these, it apears in fact to be a different recording.

This in my opinion is inferior, because if nothing else the tape has a lot more hiss. Bob, I would rate this a B+.

Agreed. I can't rate it as highly as Rob's source because of all the hiss.

But it's still great to have an alternate source, no matter which show.

Thanks to GuitarMay for bringing it here !

So ... is it a new TRANSFER or a new SOURCE ?

MDNA claims something different than the rest of you :-)

Read my second post. I now believe it is a second source, although it needs some work. The solo is not realy 11 min long, more like 6 min, it plays over almost twice, and the fist 1:20 is actualy part of GDML.
