Queen
Date 16.04.1982
Venue Hallenstadion Zürich
Title Good evening Zürich
Label Play this production
Source Long life to the Queen (cleaned up sound)


To complete the Zürich 82 shows here’s a transfer of the silver disc “Good evening Zürich” which sounds slightly better in my ears than the “Long life to the Queen” bootleg that has been shared here before (it’s the same source but somehow cleaned up a little). These two concerts are underrated in many collectors’s minds - and that’s what I fully agree. Gregsynth’s remaster is probably the best version available so this is for the completists, the newbies and “beggars” :-). As it is on one silver only it’s incomplete of course. Cover artwork can be found on Bob’s website (saying it is a 2 cd release but I only know the single disc version) or grab the 4 disc cover artwork for both shows that AS created. It’s not a new source or concert so if you don’t like it, do not download. Please convert to mp3 if you like it lossy.


01 Tie Your Mother Down
02 Action This Day
03 Play The Game
04 Somebody To Love [cut]
05 Get Down Make Love
06 Liar
07 Love Of My Life
08 Back Chat (improvisation) Save Me
09 Mustapha (intro) Fat Bottomed Girls [cut]
10 Crazy Little Thing Called Love
11 Death On Two Legs (intro) Bohemian Rhapsody
12 Now I'm Here
13 Dragon Attack Now I'm Here (reprise)
14 Another One Bites The Dust
15 Sheer Heart Attack
16 We Will Rock You
17 Under Pressure
18 We Are The Champions

Enjoy.

People if you don;t have this show you'd better download from BOKKEPOOT his total download database the LONG LIVE TO THE QUEEN 2cd /2 lp version.


This one misses for unknown reasons Staying Power and Under Pressure !

The "unknown" reasons are limited capacity on one disc only :-)

In that case it's maybe worth to have both versions, or their merge :-)

No it's the same source , only the long life to the Queen is more complete... do the song order is wrong...

for those who like a complete version Gregsynth's remaster is the speed corrected version of Long life to the Queen in corrected song order as far as I know which makes it the best available source so far, Good evening Zürich has a slightly better sound but is incomplete, well and Long life to the Queen runs at the wrong speed and two tracks are at the wrong position of the set. Now it's up to everybody which version to chose

Are you surr "good evening zurich" has better sound the first and original source of this is from " long life to the queen 3 lp" this one was later pressed on a 2 cd set with same name. Zurich is also from the vinyl source, if it has better sound someOne should do a retransfer of the vinyls...

Indeed, it would be interesting to hear a clean LP transfer.

It just sounds like this bootleg label did some EQing and light hiss reduction, and perhaps some click removal since it was LP-sourced.

But plenty is missing. For some reason they wanted to squeeze it onto a single disc, so they sped up the recording and made plenty of cuts.

To the topic starter - indeed, it's just a single disc. My mistake.

Thanks for the share !

I do have a very clean copy of the 'Long Life To The Queen' LP bootleg, and uploading that one is something I wanted to do anyway.

But it's gonna take time, the bootleg LP also has the speed issues, wrong track order, and can use some EQ in some spots.

I have a very decent turntable, cartridge, and analog -> digital converter so the quality will be alright. I'll do it in 24/96 so that everything that's in it, will come out.
I did some work on the track listing already (about a half year ago) using the CD bootleg. The CD Bootleg (just as the LP) is a gigantic jig-saw with loose bits and pieces everywhere, and by just listening to the audience (and a lot of patience), and some cut and paste work, this is what I think is the right track listing:

Tie Your Mother Down
Action This Day
Play The Game
Somebody To Love
Staying Power
Get Down, Make Love
Liar
Under Pressure
Love Of My Life
Back Chat (improvisation)
Save Me
Mustapha (intro only)
Fat Bottomed Girls
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Death On Two Legs (intro)
Bohemian Rhapsody
Now I'm Here
Dragon Attack
Now I'm Here (reprise)
Another One Bites The Dust
Sheer Heart Attack
We Will Rock You
We Are The Champions
God Save The Queen

Feel free to comment on this, by the way.

I did something similar with the CD bootleg, but nothing beats a clean transfer of the LP and going over it with a fine tooth comb.

Would love to hear what you've come up with.

any news of transfer?
Posted by vivaqueen user not visiting Queenzone.com
on 12/31/2012 6:09:00 PM
No news on the transfer so far I'm afraid :-(
I haven't had the time to do it so far. And this one is gonna take a lot of time to do.

On the other hand, about 8 months since I promised to do it, so I'll try to get on it as soon as possible.

It's been more then a year since I promised to make a transfer from the vinyl bootleg, and some good news for now, it's almost ready!

It took me a while because I had some serious hardware problems (most of them are solved) and I didn't had much time for it the last few months.

I thinks it's almost ready to upload but I want to ask your help. Because I want this version to be the best possible from this source, I want to make sure that whatever I put out, is the best.

This bootleg has two major problems:
- The set list is meshed up
- It runs to fast

The first problem (set list) is solved, but for the speed issue I want to hear some opinions. So I decided to make a few short samples that are speed corrected. You can find them here:

Let me know what you think!

thanks for your work, after listening to your samples I'd say it runs too slow now. I will try some settings and let you know how much it is tomorrow

In my opinion it'd be a much more worth while task to do a similar job with the original "Long Life To The Queen" bootleg, since there are many parts that are edited out of this version to squeeze it onto a single CD.

Sorry I didn't make that clear in my last post, but this IS about the vinyl 'long live to the queen' boot. See a few posts earlier.

No, you definitely made it clear. It's my reading comprehension that needs the work.

Great job on the remaster ! I'd happily have this one in my collection.

Do you mean the way the speed is now, or just how it sounds? Because I'm still curious to know how people (preferably with skills) think about the speed. And you have done dozens of those things.

I simply compared the taped opera part of Bohemian Rhapsody of this show with the Milton Keynes show, and slowed it down until it equaled. Then I used that setting for the complete concert. To me it sounds good this way.

But since 'Fallen Queen' has the opinion that it's to slow now, I can use some input.

If anything, I'd say it's a very slight bit too fast.

The BoRhap opera section is usually my benchmark too. Great minds think alike.

Nice EQing job.

Funny, I didn't do anything on the EQ. It's just a fine example of how good vinyl records can sound.

Anyway, since there aren't any others opinions I'll hope to finish it soon and I'll share it in 24/96.

Thanks for your help, and I just don't hope they close this site before it's shared ;-)
