I'm really fascinated by the fact that they performed Mad The Swine on this tour. I also didn't think that they performed White Queen too because I thought that they didn't have a piano on this tour because why would they for just one song? I must be wrong.
Does a live recording of Mad The Swine exist Gary? [/QUOTE]
We have a recording of the following night so it is possible.

In answer to a few questions on here. Although the band didn't have use of a piano on stage on the U.S Mott tour, they still performed 'White Queen' occasionally, but without any keyboards. As far as I know there are no live recordings of 'Mad The Swine', so we live in hope that someday a live tape will turn up and we can hear this gem, and 'White Queen' too, as they were played on stage at this time. One of the reasons they dropped 'Seven Seas Of Rhye' from the set was because they had no piano.

Thanks Gary for answering, I'm not surprised about Seven Seas Of Rhye being dropped from the set as that wasn't a hit in the US and the song needs a piano. But I'm still surprised about White Queen being performed even if it was just a couple of times. It must've not sounded right or worked well on stage in this alternative way which meant it being dropped most nights. I too hope there is a recording out there even if not in great quality.
Just out of interest when did Queen start recording their live shows?

It has always been suggested that the band's sound man, John Harris, recorded many of the early shows, but as any tapes haven't been found, this can't be confirmed.
It's not such a surprise for the band to perform 'White Queen' without a piano, as the 'Queen II' version didn't have keyboards on either.

Are there any tapes of the band before Golders Green 73 that can be confirmed?

I don't think there are any others before this gig but there could well be.

LOVE this book. A must have for any Queen fan. I’m on my second time through. Just awesome
on my way up
A small question to GT: are the soundboards you've heard comparable in terms of sound quality to the live version of Sleeping on the sidewalk as released on the NOTW box set (a well balanced mono soundboard, very enjoyable in my opinion)?
