Queen/UK 11.1.1974

QUEEN was in 1974 when their single “Killer Queen” showed signs of becoming a hit, and the door to the world was about to open. Introducing a new excavation master who can experience the site of the dawn. What is infused into this work is “Liverpool performance on November 1, 1974”. This is an exquisite audience recording. The biggest point of this work is that you can experience the valuable “SHEER HEART ATTACK TOUR” on-site. In other words, the timing of the show is crucial. First, let’s look back at the schedule at that time and check our positions. 1974《Single “Killer Queen” released on October 21st》・October 30th – November 7th: UK #1 (8 performances)←★Here★《“SHEER HEART ATTACK” released on November 8th》・11 March 8th – November 20th: UK #2 (11 performances) ← *Official LIVE AT THE RAINBOW ’74, November 23rd – December 13th: Europe (11 performances) 1975, February 5th – 24th Sunday: North America #1 (16 performances) March 5th – April 6th: North America #2 (21 performances) April 19th – May 1st: First visit to Japan (8 performances) This is “SHEER HEART ATTACK” Overall picture of “TOUR”. They were working hard on the “QUEEN II TOUR” until May 1974, and produced “SHEER HEART ATTACK” from summer to early fall. The tour started in conjunction with the release of the lead single “Killer Queen”. The album “SHEER HEART ATTACK” was also released at the beginning, but the Liverpool performance of this work was before that. This was the third concert of “UK #1″. In addition, we have introduced the first day of the tour (October 30th) as “MANCHESTER 1974”, but there is no recording left for the second performance. This work is the next live album after “MANCHESTER 1974”. Although it has been known that such early stages of the tour were recorded, the length of less than 30 minutes was not satisfactory, and the sound was quite difficult. However, very recently, a new master with a long length of approximately 54 minutes and a significantly upgraded sound was discovered. That is what this work is. In fact, the sound is incomparably better. Although the conventional master was also clear and noiseless, the tape was severely degraded and became sluggish. From the quality of his voice, I could barely tell it was Freddie’s singing voice, and I could hear it from afar, and I couldn’t help but sigh, thinking, “I’m sure the recording itself is good, but the condition is like this…” However, this work is completely, completely, completely different! The lustrous core penetrates the same way, but it is powerful and stable, and it even feels like the recording position itself is more than 10 meters closer. Moreover, this work further brushes up such a new excavation master. It is the highest peak board that pursues the maximum potential. The close-up is also intense. The key point is the transparency of the air, which eliminates the slightly cloudy sound. The silent parts have a jet black depth, and the outline that rises from there is clear and distinct. Not only Freddie alone, but even when the chorus overlaps thickly, you can clearly hear every word of the lyrics, and the thickness itself is felt not as roundness, but as the beauty and dynamism of the harmony. Digital mastering is also not magic, and there are many cases where it cannot be changed at all depending on the uniqueness of the original sound, but in the case of this work, the compatibility was extremely good. If you are familiar with the original sound on the internet, you will definitely be surprised and wonder, “Is this really the same recording!?” It has been reborn so beautifully. What is depicted with such an unexpected sound is a group of famous songs unique to the early days that have been greatly increased. Here, for core enthusiasts who know the old master, let’s organize it while paying attention to the increased volume.・Terror Princess (2 songs): Son And Daughter/Keep Yourself Alive ・Queen II (6 songs): Procession (★)/Ogre Battle (★)/Father To Son (★)/White Queen (As It Began) ★) / The March Of The Black Queen / Seven Seas Of Rhye・Sheer Heart Attack (5 songs): Now I’m Here (★) / Flick Of The Wrist / In The Lap Of The Gods (★) / Killer Queen/Bring Back That Leroy Brown・Others: Big Spender/Modern Times Rock ‘n’ Roll *Note: Songs marked with “★” cannot be heard on the old master. …and it looks like this. Since the old master was only in the second half of the show, the “QUEEN II” number that was played in the first half has been significantly increased. However, the live version itself could be heard on the official version “LIVE AT THE RAINBOW ’74”, but the performance of this work is completely different. Freddy is especially great. To be honest, “LIVE AT THE RAINBOW ’74” was not in good condition, probably because it was the last day of the UK tour, but this work was the third performance and the motivation and condition were in great condition. Although the new songs are rough because they haven’t gotten used to them yet, the vocalization itself is pleasant and stretches, and you can hear plenty of flexible expressiveness. This is a new excavation of a valuable live album that allows you to experience the very early days of “SHEER HEART ATTACK TOUR”. The ultimate evolution that will surprise not only those who know the old master, but also those who have experienced the original sound version of the new master. Exquisite audience recording of “Liverpool performance on November 1, 1974”, which is the third performance of “SHEER HEART ATTACK TOUR”. A new master of approximately 54 minutes has been newly discovered, which is significantly longer than the old master which was just under 30 minutes. The sound has also been significantly upgraded, and the unique mastering of this work is also extremely effective. The sparkle of the crystal-clear atmosphere is clear and clear, and the contours that rise within it are clear and distinct, and even when the chorus is thick, you can clearly hear every word of the lyrics. The thickness itself is not a roundness, but a sense of beauty and dynamism in harmony. This is a valuable live album that allows you to experience a show in great condition that is much better than the official version “LIVE AT THE RAINBOW ’74”.
