ok, but "done under pressure in germany" was released in december 2000 and in the collectors music review there's written that this "definitive mannheim" is taken from a new broadcast (march 2008) from the radio in much upgraded sound... I would like to know if this is true...
I just read the review and i think it's great that Radio can still broadcast an entire 2 hour concert of Queen. This is even better considering that it was never released officially, wich means that we can have 4 Magic shows in Excellent quallity (2 Wembley, Budapest and Mannheim).
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Hello!
do you know if this cd link is the best source of this concert?
thank you

It's definitely not the best, but it's close. It's the complete show, but worse than the Gypsy Eye bootleg as there's a lack of bass. It doesn't sound like it's the tape that leaked in 2008, as the EQ is pretty different.
I'll share it here when I get a chance, and you can hear for yourself !

then the definitive version would be a new merge of "Done Under Pressure In Germany" by Gipsy Eye and "Definitive Mannheim" by Wardour ...
if this merge doesn't already exist, a new project could be to create it... :)

Isn't it exactly what I created ? :-)
I thought the 2-source merge was made with "Done Under Pressure In Germany" by Gipsy Eye and the 1st gen copy of the 2008 FM broadcast
and not with the Gipsy Eye bootleg and the "Definitive Mannheim" by Wardour that sounds better in Bob's opinion
Definitive Mannheim is some other source. It's excellent, but not quite as clear sounding as some of the others.
So it looks like we were wrong about the Gypsy Eye bootleg. I received two CDRs in the early 2000s labeled as being the GE bootleg, but it turns out they were mislabeled. I've just heard the actually GE bootleg, and it's nothing to write home about. The sound is average compared to other copies.
Those CDRs I received just may be someone's compilation, perhaps Reigns The World (or one of the other countless bootleg stemmed from it) using an inferior copy to fill in the gaps.
I also just received a transfer of side A of the original Queen Reigns The World bootleg, and it is spectacular. Now I'm curious to hear the silvers of the same name.
We'll solve this mystery, once and for all !
According to your site Reigns The World would be the definitive version as it has an A+ rating.
As it's listed as 103 minutes on other sites I gather it's complete.
