Queen Super Bowl Sun City, Bophuthatswana South Africa October 19th, 1984. Originally shared by Anthony aka City-in-the-Sun at Queenzone.com Edited by Alex Solan. Here it's the amazing soundboard show at Sun City shared a few weeks ago in MP3 format only and incomplete (almost first half of the show) Pitch runned about at a semitone (approx.) slower so I corrected it using GoldWave... now I've downloaded Anthony's original MP3 (single file) and done the same process but now splitted on tracks and encoded to FLAC (to avoid gaps between tracks for those of you who might want to burn to Audio CD) Lineage for this version: SBD > ? > City-in-the-Sun's original MP3 single file > decoded and edited using GoldWave -pitch correction and tracks splitted- > encode to FLAC level 8 using Trader's Little Helper (aligned on sector boundaries) .md5 and .ffp files included. Also including the preview MP3 file shared by Anthony at the Serious discussion forum (also pitch corrected and encoded back again to MP3 128 kbps, using GoldWave) and a very nice interview to Brian & Roger from 1986 talking about the Sun City gigs, Irish radio clip kindly shared by Marknow at the original thread: http://www.queenconcerts.com/queenzone/1184978.html Program tour scan courtesy from QueenConcerts.com link setlist: (44:04) 1.

Happy new year, friends ! Since I'm a fool who first deletes stuff from his hard disc and than realizes he hadn't burned it yet, would be somebody so nice and seed this one for me ? Thanks |

For a couple of seconds there I thought the second part also got shared :-( Rapidshare say that they Free users will find things easier within a few days as they're upgrading their capacities. |

I promised Seba_979 artwork for this one two years ago... so here, better tarde que nunca no? jajaja as usual, all stuff upped to Picasa, click the "Download" button over every pic to get the high res artwork ! enjoy, peeps! |
| Ale Solan 09.08.2011 14:51 |
and forgot to mention Danie van der Merwe for both pics from the show, not sure from which show but they survived over 26 years! "Myself & Victor took off on a trip to see Queen at Sun City in the middle 1980's. I smuggled a camera and a tape recorder in, in the bottom of my boots." unfortunately, the recording didn't survive the pass of time... |
| pittrek 09.08.2011 14:57 |
Does anybody know if the second tape was EVER transferred ? |

Resurrecting an old thread. Somehow I missed this show, but I am grateful for the share. Any word on the second tape? |
| dive2063 06.08.2014 03:49 |
Are there any news regarding the 2nd part? |
| OwenSmith 17.08.2014 16:59 |
Either the guy shows up and shares the second tape or he doesn't, Without any contact information, there is nothing we on Queenzone can do to make this happen. |
| pittrek 18.08.2014 01:03 |
He stopped replying to personal messages years ago |

Thank you so much Anthony for the audio (and Ale Solan for torrent), I was listening to Part 2 and it kicks ass so I rushed through this sharing forum to find part 1. The drum phrases, the guitar, Freddie's voice all sound so rich here. |

The only ship that sailed was the one containing Freddie Mercury, Luciano Pavarotti and another great artists. This not. Half good/half bad. That's life. (At least we have this incredible document about those concerts. :) ) |
