This is the classic Freddie Mercury birthday show with numerous references to the occasion, including him stopping the show part way through Love Of My Life to read a greeting card.
While 'first gen' was the given lineage, there is a notable change in quality (i.e. tape generation) at the beginning of the guitar solo.

Enjoy, and keep it lossless!
I listened to the WAV files, and I notice that the volume is very very low (quite inaudible), and there is also a lot of hiss....
I wonder if my FLAC frontend doesn't work or maybe my ears... =)
anybody could be so kind to make a hiss & volume project on this show?
It would be very appreciated...thanks in andvance
I listened to this one last week-end and it seems the cdrs have some copy errors, especially on CD2 where there are scratchs here and there. Yet, nothing major...

Hmm, where exactly? I can go back to the original CDRs and check..
I have not listened again to the recording but just some random songs on the second disc. As far as I remember, there are not errors on the first disc, even if i need to verify again. I localized at least one slight click at 0:58 on Brighton Rock reprise, one bad click at 1:24 on AOBTD and another bad one at 0:28 on WWRY. I'm sure there are others, sometimes several on some songs. Is it the same on your disc? It is not a big deal as if the errors are also on your disc, it can be easily fixed but if your copy is clean, it's better!
Thanks for pointing them out... ! Those could be analog errors, actually.
But honestly, I just don't have the time to fix every single recording. If it was a better-sounding show, I'd devote the time to it. So if you or someone else wants to do it, feel free !
You mean that these errors could be on the original tape? I realy doubt it, they really sound like digital errors (except maybe the error in Brighton Rock reprise). Anyway, I'll try to find the time to correct them.
