I have lurked here for some short time, taking advantage of the generosity of the QZ-ers to increase my collection of Queen FLACs. I always seed back to at least 1:1 if I download a torrent, mind you. ;-)
Anyway, seeing the discussion in this thread: /queenzone/1064233.html ... I figured it's my time to do try and be of some service. I have started uploading the FLAC files for this show to Mediafire, and will get it all done within a day or two. I will post the links as the uploads get ready. When you have all the eight parts, you just need to start extracting the first part, and the rest will follow. The files are originally from this torrent: /queenzone/433629.html - many thanks to Whiteman for sharing this!
NOTE: You can *not* use the files I upload to seed the torrent. That is because I have added tags to the files, so that they will show properly in my mediaplayer, and if the tracks were originally named "Track 01", etc (I really don't remember), I changed the names into the actual song names, too. Those changes make the hash value different so that it no longer matches that for the torrent. The audio files are not changed in any way, though. A comparison using ffp or st5 checksums would show the exact same values for "my" files and those in the torrent.
I have also done a spectral analysis (these files are very good looking true lossless files) and checked for SBEs (sector boundary errors) - there weren't any, so there will not be any extra clicks or gaps added if you choose to burn an audio CD from the files.
Here's the original info file, slightly changed for this upload:

Great bootleg from Glasgow in 1977 from gypsy eye label. Unfortunately, this
concert is not complete. It has Very Good+/Excellent- soundquality, which is
really enjoyable. Nice version of the song I'm A Man.

Nice work :)
Thanks. Yes, judging from the way you phrased your post in that other thread, I figured you had other interesting files to upload, so see this as freeing your bandwidth for those other shares. :)
OK, I uploaded part 1 again, and edited in an "alternate link" in the first post. Enjoy! :)
To be sure, sometimes Mediafire seems to be overloaded - if you try a bit later, links that didn't work at first just might be fine.

True, It happened to me with a whole show not just one file.
One day it didn't work, the following day i downloaded the whole thing in less than an hour.
Go figure.
People, try to be a little more patient and stop complaining about links that don't work (unless you get the "file deleted" message of course) or servers with long waiting periods.
Each time a show I don't have is available I just thank the people who put it up and dont mind if it takes me a week or whatever to get it. You eventualy will get it and no harm will come to you if you have to wait some time to get something you are being guiven for FREE.
It took me over a month to complete the Osaka 1976 evening show torrent, and that made it a lot more exciting to finaly get it a listening to it.
You´re right man!
The longer the waiting so much sweeter is the cake.
But when you try to heat the cake for three days and nothing happen you think about to call a mechanic to check the heater before your cake get rotten. So did I.
Thanks for re-creating the 1st part.
regards
W.
