Queen/PA,USA 1982 Upgrade

“HOT SPACE TOUR 1982” is known as a treasure trove of great performances and sound sources. A new excavation master is now available from the North American edition. What was included in the new excavation master was “July 24, 1982 Philadelphia Performance”. This is a long audience recording. The recording of this show has been known for a long time, but this work is a new master that has become much longer although it is the same sound source. The conventional version was about 82 minutes until “Tie Your Mother Down” in the latter half of the show, but this work is a long live album of about 93 minutes with four songs from the beginning to the end of the show. “HOT SPACE TOUR” is famous for its European leg masterpieces, but this one is from the North American leg. First, let’s look back at the whole tour. “HOT SPACE” completed in March – April 9th ​​- May 22nd: Europe (26 performances) “HOT SPACE” released on May 21st – May 29th – June 5th: UK (4 Performances) July 21st – September 15th: North America (33 performances) ←★Here★ October 19th – November 3rd: Japan (6 performances) This is QUEEN in 1982. After the release of “HOT ​​SPACE”, they toured continental Europe and the UK, and then took a month and a half off. From summer to fall, I toured North America and Japan. The Philadelphia performance of this work is a restart period for such a reorganization. This was the third concert of the “North American” leg. This work, which records such a show, has a clear and upgraded dynamic sound. In fact, this time’s master is the currently popular “luvsufo” collection. RAINBOW’s CD “HARRISBURG 1982” has been very well received, and this work was also discovered as part of the excavation of the same series. And I can’t believe my ears at the upgrade. Previously, the air of the master tended to be cloudy and cloudy, but the new excavated master was overwhelmingly clear, as if wiping glasses fogged with steam. As expected, the recording itself is the same, so there is no difference in the sense of distance or the sound of the hall, but the performance sound that penetrates the atmosphere is clear like a laser beam, and the details can be clearly understood. Those who know the previous masters will be surprised and wonder, “This is the same recording!?”, and even those who have not heard it will be enchanted by the freshness that is one of the best in North America in 1982.It is a beautiful recording. The show drawn with such an upgraded sound is a great North American performance that is similar to and different from the European leg. Speaking of the symbol of the European leg, it is the official version “QUEEN ON FIRE” above all, so let’s organize the set while comparing it. ●NEWS OF THE WORLD (3 songs + α)・We Will Rock You (Fast)/Get Down Make Love/We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions ●THE GAME (6 songs)・Play The Game/Dragon Attack/Save Me ／Crazy Little Thing Called Love／Another One Bites The Dust ・Songs that cannot be heard on QUEEN ON FIRE: Rock It (Prime Jive) ・HOT SPACE (5 songs) ・Action This Day／Staying Power／Under Pressure ・Listen on QUEEN ON FIRE Songs not available: Calling All Girls／Body Language ●Others (4 songs)・Now I’m Here “SHEER HEART ATTACK” / Bohemian Rhapsody “A Night at the Opera” / Tie Your Mother Down “Brilliant Lace” / Fat Bottomed Girls “JAZZ”…and it looks like this. In “QUEEN ON FIRE”, the theme of “Flash” went directly to “We Will Rock You (Fast)”, but in the North American leg, “Rock It (Prime Jive)” was inserted in between. The arrangement was changed to a medley that connects to “We Will Rock You (Fast)”. In addition, “Calling All Girls” and “Body Language” from “HOT SPACE” are also included in the set, making it a set reminiscent of the Japan performance. The opening song “Rock It (Prime Jive)” is also really cool, and the “HOT SPACE” number is also valuable. It has evolved into a show that is very listenable. Even more intense than such a set is the performance itself. Anyway, Freddie is doing great! Speaking of the 1982 North American version, “OAKLAND 1982” is known as the pinnacle great performance, but this work is no less. The honor of the famous “HOT SPACE TOUR” in QUEEN live history is largely due to the excellent performance of the European leg, but this Philadelphia performance is comparable to that miraculous European leg. Moreover, this work is long. In addition to the conventional version of the Philadelphia performance, you can enjoy almost the full show, including the highlights of “We Will Rock You” and “We Are The Champions”, which were not recorded even in “OAKLAND 1982” (“Get Down Make There is a cut that seems to be a tape change at the beginning of “Love” and “Another One Bites The Dust”, so it is not strictly complete, but both were recorded before the main riff entered). “HOT SPACE TOUR 1982” is famous for Freddie’s best performance in “QUEEN ON FIRE”. It is a live album with the same hyper tension as that official work, but you can enjoy a different set from the European leg. Is it “OAKLAND 1982” where the rare song “Put Out The Fire” is performed for the first time, or is this work almost a full show? A new masterpiece that will compete for the best in North America in 1982, both in terms of passionate performance and sound.
