Hey folks,
This is the complete recording of their 3rd show in Tokyo back in 1976, I got in a trade.
There's only one cut in the middle of Bohemian Rhapsody during the medley.
This share is a compilation of a vinyl source (very good (probably "Mercury Poisoning"))and an audience source (Good-), so don't be afraid when the sound changes from one song to another.
Hangman and Father To Son can be heard in very good quality.

There are more Flac-files then songs in the setlists when you extract the parts. That's because some speeches between the songs got their own title-number.
enjoy listening

wow, thanks! What a great share.
This is a fantastic show, I only knew the "Year of.." tracks, so it's wonderfull to have the full show. Much appreciated!!!!!
Thanks for this share ! I had this one but without any information, so it's nice seeing this information complete now !
Thanks Bob for making it clearer and more correct !
Regards,

I received this show myself a few years back and having listened to it today after a long while, I have made the following conclusions, but would be interested to hear what you think.
Based on the information provided on Queen Live.ca, I think the lesser quality source is from an audience recording - the cut in the verses on Bohemian Rhapsody match to this, as does the bulk of the show.
Most likely the better sounding tracks do come from Mercury Poisoning LP - Bohemian Rhapsody (tape & rock part), Flick Of The Wrist, Hangman, Brighton Rock, Son And Daughter, Father To Son, Keep Yourself Alive, Now I'm Here, See What A Fool I've Been and God Save The Queen.
I don't believe some of the tracks do originate from Year Of The Opera as per the lineage offered, as this would be a split between 01/04/1976 as well as Santa Monica '75 - Bohemian Rhapsody (tape & rock part) [cut], Flick Of The Wrist, Hangman and Seven Seas Of Rhye / Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon would be from 31/03/1976.
When introducing Hangman, Freddie mentions they played this song here a year back, so that discounts Year Of The Opera. Father To Son does not appear to be from a different show to Hangman, either.

=========================
Indeed, you're most likely right.
Here's the best bootleg with the better-sounding tracks - definitely worth a listen. link
Here's hoping Mr Peach taped the April 1 show ... that would put all of these bootlegs and the accompanying "which is the best copy" talk to rest.
Good show and alright quality, horribly divided up and labeled. There's some 5-20 second clips of just the audience screaming which should really just be part of the songs themselves, and everything is labeled as one word (e.g. 'White', 'Rhapsody', 'Lap' etc.) Once I fixed all that it's fine :P
