Comments from the original creator Notes: Some of my favourite recordings from Dime in 2009 include various shows from the excellent Dan Lampinski Tapes Series. This early Queen recording is top of my list; what an absolute corker! It brings back memories of seeing them at The Liverpool Empire in the UK during the same tour. Well I waited for 6 months for a speed-fixed version of Volume 3 to turn up, unfortunately in vain, so I finally decided to do it myself. This is the result. It turned out so nice that I thought I would share it with you nice folks at Dime (notice I said 'nice' LOL). Now I know I risk life & limb by posting my own remaster of such a highly praised recording on Dime (with ~2400 downloads since June 2009!!), but in my defence the originators, Kev & Carl, did say we should feel free to have a go. The original recording was in excellent shape but IMHO did need some attention to fix a few issues, mainly: - Wrong speed/pitch (I determined that the original plays +51 cents sharp) - some rough edits due to cassette swap & stop - slightly excessive tape hiss - insufficient bass response (IMO) The basic details of the mastering applied to the original 24bit/96Khz version from djscomics seed on Dime (using Wavelab6) are as follows: A: edit/fill/crossfade cassette swap & stop points (to disguise the abrupt/rough edits) B: Fix mono portion of Track 1 'Bohemian Rhapsody (Opera)' C: Time stretch by 103.1% (equals -51 cent pitch change) D: Slight de-hiss E: EQ / Multiband Compression / Limiting (-0.2dB max) / Dithering to 16bit (bass boost & tighten up the sound) F: WAVs edited to fit on to 2xCDRs (with overlap) plus fade in/out (using the same CD break point as the original) G: track split (I've added a few more track breaks as per track list above) Please note that this remaster reflects my own personal preferences with respect to listening to live shows. Remastering has been done to polish the raw master recording with the aim of enhancing the listening experience. This includes some editing of the original to disguise the cassette swap & stop points to make it seamless (i.e. prior to 'The Prophet's Song', 'Now I'm Here' & 'Hey Big Spender') as well as some tweaks to 'polish up' the overall sound. So if you prefer virgin recordings, unspoiled by any such amateur 'dabbling' then do not join in on this one, you can still get the original recording on Dime (for CD 16bit format) here: link I will attached links in the torrent comments to a multi-track mp3 sampler of my remaster (as well as one for the original, for direct comparison) to help you decide if you fancy grabbing this one. IMO for sound quaity this is a solid 9 out of 10 (= A-) and an upgrade to the original ... but I would never put that in writing of course ... Doh! .. I just did ;-D If you have any comments, whether positive, negative or otherwise, I would love to read them ... don't be a lurker, but hey! ... please don't flame me if you don't agree with my efforts ... & at least keep it 'nice' & friendly ;-) .....................................................................

Open the last file. It has the .zip extension, and the rest will extract after it. |
Shaving Foamasi 26.10.2010 07:12 |
Thanks for this! I think this is my favourite 70's bootleg... |

did anyone else here see this show...i was 15 then , my parents had drove myself and 3 girlfriends to that show that nite...it was my first real concert i had ever been to...just the first, and never the last (until1982 )..wherever they toured in new england and in nyc we went . I.took hundreds of pics, and those years were the best years of all... |
The Real Wizard 27.11.2010 23:16 |
Welcome to QZ, Veila. Any chance you could share your pics? It'd be great to see them. |

7-Zip can usually handle any archive I throw at it, but the only thing I've been able to open this with successfully is WinRAR, which I'll have to purchase to use after 40 days. Does anyone know of a free utility which can open these files? Also, thanks for your work and the upload, this sounds brilliant! |

Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately the last part isn't available to download - could someone please re-upload? |

It is still working - try the megaupload in the multiupload selection. |

Well none of them are working now, any chance of a repost? I really want to hear this D: |
The Real Wizard 03.01.2012 23:13 |
Forget about the New York show, Tom. This is the only one from 1976 you need, really. All of the links still work on my end. You just need to download WinRar to extract them. |
tomchristie22 04.01.2012 03:58 |
Oh okay, I didn't realise the megaupload links were still working. I sort of checked a few of the servers and assumed they'd all been removed, foolishly without checking megaupload. I'll get this now |

Thank you for the link. I hadn't realised so far there was such a good remastering of this show. The only copy I had was the one that seems to run too fast. Now I'm going to enjoy this show. Is the artwork still available on Ale Solan,'s page on Google? Because I saw he had moved his artworks to a new thread. |
brunolezouf 05.08.2018 08:08 |
It is indeed. I should have checked before. Thank you to Ale Solan for this amazing artwork. |

http://mega.nz/#!lhUGzABA!63osJvwVvd8eOzj_Yf14A2LFolcUxThsEY3UFFZLkno Have fun, Sam ! This may well be the best Queen audience tape ever to emerge. There are even people who said they didn't like Queen but took a listen based on recommendations, and they thought it was great. |
Sam99 17.11.2019 18:27 |
Bob, thank you so very much I really appreciate you re posting this concert. I agree, the sound on this tape is amazing!, thanks again a Bob. |
