The FM soundboard of the Mannheim performance that has been representing QUEEN’s last “THE MAGIC TOUR” together with the official “LIVE AT WEMBLEY STADIUM” and “HUNGARIAN RHAPSODY”. The original master reel in-kind of the broadcasting station that became a major standard was excavated! It is a decision to make it into a CD with an emergency permanent storage press !!
[Observation of master reels of broadcasting stations to obtain miracle] What is contained in such a case board is “Mannheim performance on June 21, 1986”. This show is radio broadcast on NPR (US Public Radio Station) and NDR (North German Broadcasting), and is a large standard among the classics that has produced numerous FM soundboards. In our shop, the ultimate quality board “DEFINITIVE MANNHEIM (Wardour-100)” became a big hit. It is a sound board recording that should be called the treasure of “THE MAGIC TOUR”, but this work makes a distinction from such a group that has already been released. It is a direct digitization from the actual master reels used by radio stations. Moreover, this reel sound source is not on the net. The photograph of the reel actual thing is also published on the right, but this is probably from West Germany. The copies were distributed around the world (including Japan), but this reel was sent to the United States. The FM radio station was put on auction recently, and it was provided by the mania who made a successful bid for it.
And when I tried to play that treasure master, the “Dengen of Otogen” including the parts that I could not hear in the past has been flowing out. Before the contents of the shock, here the position of the show. Let’s confirm it in the whole picture of “THE MAGIC TOUR”.

Well, if you say it like that, I definitely don't want to shock the Dengen of Otogen.

The concert was broadcasted live by the german radio station SWR (South-West-Radio). I remember because I drove with my car about 200 km south until I could get the channel in my radio. I stopped at a highway rest stop and taped it with my radio-recorder. Good old pre-internet times :) Too bad I lost the cassettes during the years...

SWF3 to be precise.
I still have a guitar demo by Brian from the same broadcast.
And i do hope that the real broadcast tape will emerge.

Cmon, how much time do we allready have this gig allready in our cd-rooms, 5 or 6 times? Every year some 'new remaster' that nobody can hear the differences.

Nice way to say "Thank you" pathetic cunt.

Quicker than i thought, thank you very very much for your kind share

Would any of you be so kind to upload it to MEGA? Thanks in advance.

Regards

So does anyone know if these reels (listed on eBay in the US back in June) are the actual source?

The whole lot of reel-to-reel "pre-fm recordings" sold on eBay by "the widow of a well-known producer from US" is a crummy fake.

But my question was, are they the source?

Kurgan - You "should" have asked aristide1 first. He knows everything.

At least I know that nobody gives a fuck on bombastic historical and political references unrelated to Queen, like your forum nickname and motto.
Except thomasquinn of course, the other member of the pseudo-intellectual elite.

Thank you very much.
