Here's a torrent of the great show Sir GH just shared with us today via Megaupload - thanks so much, Bob! These are Bob's original notes:
Queen
Brussels, Belgium
Forest National
August 24, 1984
This is a relatively good recording of the first show of the Works tour. Freddie is in great voice. Sheer Heart Attack would be dropped in favour of Jailhouse Rock after a few nights.

Good download!! In the future, if this torrent goes dormant, bump it or PM me and I will reseed :)
Would any of you guys be so kind as to comment on the sound quality of this one? Well, and on the performance overall, if anyone feels like adding something to the beautiful review by Bob.

As Bob indicates, it's a good recording. You can hear what's going on and really enjoy it. And there's a lot to enjoy. Freddie sings beautifully. I like the way he sings Is this the world we created?, very different compared to other versions. He sings all the new songs with lots of confidence and goes also for the higher notes. It's a hard life is a good example, a brilliant version. The rest of the band sound tight and happy to be on stage again too. There's also a nice atmosphere in the hall. An essential 1984 tape.
