I'm working on a fanmix album, and I would like to see if fellow fans could tell me if live versions exist of the following tracks - My Fairy King, The Night Comes Down, Modern Times Rock 'N' Roll, and Jesus, and please add on the specific gig. And as lovely as the BBC versions of My Fairy King and Modern Times Rock 'N' Roll may be (people will no doubt bring them up), I'm only counting gig performances.

Modern times rock n' roll was played live in tokyo in 1975 and in new orleans in 1974, freddie did a improvisation of my fairy king during the works tour but that's about is. jesus and the night comes down were never performed live.
jesus and the night comes down were tried live in the early days but they never stayed in the setlist for long,no recording exists sadly...x

I bought a bootleg CD for 15£ called Sun City Boys from The Works tour, only for the reason that My Fairy King was in the setlist - it's just a short improv, as mentioned above - better than nothing, though.

The latest recording of Modern Times Rock 'N' Roll live that I know of is Liverpool, Nov 15, 1975. It was a staple of the band's shows from the Queen II tour till the end of the SHA tour in Japan.Anything after that (like Liverpool) is a rarity.
