This is from a trade tape I have labelled Dortmund 21st Jan 1979. I want to check if all the songs are actually from Dortmund though. For example, Is this previously un-circulated sample of It's Late from the gig? Anyone who collects everything should know, Freddie's spoken intro is a big clue. I'll upload some other samples from my tape as the thread progresses.

I think too, the "Thank you" from Brian matches the recording I have but the rest of the banter is cut on my recording which is the common edited one.

Ok  thanks. Here is LMEY from the same tape, this song obviously is Dortmund.

This is Bo Rhap.

Even without listening to the samples, I can tell you that all the circulating copies of this tape are entirely Dortmund except for the second half of Somebody To Love (which comes from one of the Seattle 77 LPs, probably Duck Soup).

^ The samples of It's Late and Bo Rhap are NOT on any circulating tape of Dortmund '79 I know of.
I am trying to establish if they are genuinely from Dortmund.

OK, I'm cluing in here !

This is phenomenal.

Please upload the entire thing - it's the only way I'll know if it's genuine. On the circulating versions there are cuts and cross-fades, and here we seem to have an earlier version of the tape. Hearing the transitions between songs is key.

Even if the medley tracks aren't the real deal, It's Late certainly is. So if you post your copy, I'll be able to analyze it and do all the right speed correction and edits, and I'll post a finalized version.

If it all turns out to be genuine, then we'll more or less have the complete show now.

Thanks Kurgan !

^ The edits and cuts are all quite obvious, as is the difference in the sound quality of some songs..
Side B seems like it might all be Dortmund, but I'm not 100% sure.
What's your opinion on Bo Rhap?
· Member since
BoRhap and It's Late are genuine Dortmund for sure.

Can you upload Death through Car next? And with the transitions from/to the previous/following tracks?

This is great! Thanks Kurgan!
I just heard the Bo Rhap sample and it's very surprising that Fred did not sing most of it..
