I do believe had Roger and Brian not let Freddie into the band that Queen would not exist and we wouldn’t have these Legends today. It was pure destiny and 4 genius’s that gave us the pleasure of listening to their music for generations to come!

Tamarama Wait, that’s crazy!! Why would they want someone to NOT do their best? I mean, the better the performance the more money they’d make for the record company, right? The real reason, IMHO, is that the music acts today often don’t write their own songs. Back in the day, that’s what made them supergroups. They wrote their lyrics and music. Now there’s a small group of songwriters that care about sticking to their formulas rather than write awesome songs. There are exceptions of course but the pop stars that pop up out of the blue with their auto tuned songs all kind of sound the same. To me, not everyone would agree. 🌸 annie

Its not fake its a very common practice for released live performances. Google it if you don't believe me. They clean up the audio and overdub certain parts they think could be improved. You can easily pick out the overdubs in this, Best way to notice is when the audio doesn't quite sync up. Rogers vocals are all overdubbed as well as Brian's. Freddy's big "ooooooh" during the climax is overdubbed. Guitar solo's are often overdubbed too. Its not a bad thing, It happens on every live performance that's released.

Ok, let me clarify, 7.04 hz is NOT possible for a human unless they do a vibrato. If you are talking 7 vibratos per second, fine. But in music 7 hz would be extremely hard to hear. It would be more a feeling. Its a speaker vibrating 7 times a second. The usual range of hearing of a normal person is 20-40 hz to about 16-18 kHz. I dont want to be pedantic, but just clarifying. If you want to try your range of hearing, there are plenty of youtube videos that will test your range (Depending on your speakers, of course).

update - saw over to the right you did the original video - good, I'll watch that next. Don't get too hung up on the clothes, there's a video where he's barefoot, short shorts and a bandana around his neck shirtless. I think it's the closest he could be to being naked! LOL Bands in the 70/80 were used to stadium concerts as the norm. Wembly was always around 72,000m Rio was 100-150,000 and their last concert in the UK was to 200,000 people. Musicians like Freddie compared to even the hottest acts of today - no comparison because nowadays they use synthesizers and other tricks. Not that Freddie's era didn't begin to play with that - but certainly the vocal strength was more intense for the mic quality difference 40 years ago.

Yes you are right! It is actually the same as this one, 1981 Montreal and the song to see it is, "We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions". Barefoot, short shorts and a bandana but getting involved with the crowd and closing out their show like they usually did with that combo. LOVE IT!!

Love the fact you respond excited to their performance... No technical people talking in his ear he sings from the heart and the love if every song ... No ear buds back then... Performers now can't do anything without technical support...

"Queen headlined two nights of the 10-day Rock In Rio festival in 1985, the biggest music festival in history to date. Also headlining two nights each were AC/DC, Yes, and Rod Stewart. Queen played on January 11 and 18, but they hit the stage around 2am each night, technically dating the performances the 12th and 19th respectively. They set a record for paying attendance, playing to 250,000 people each night - the biggest audiences they would ever play for. Some sources say the band played to as many as 350,000 (or even 470,000) on the first night." queenlive.ca/queen/85-01-12.htm

A beer discussion 😀. There are very heavy alcohol taxes in Australia hence the price. Probably the most popular (and cheapest) is VB (Victorian Bitter) but there are also a lot of craft beers here. But I do like a Heineken now and then.

Noticed your comment about the video quality even though it is from 1981. The reason the quality is so good is that this concert was filmed on 70mm film. A lot of films prior to the 1960s were filmed on 70mm, but the industry transitioned down to 35mm for expense reasons. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but 70mm film is basically the equivalent of up to 18K in today’s digital.

Best memory that I will never forget was going to a QUEEN concert when I was quite young. Live Aid was AMAZING, my uncle took me to both concerts. I have only been to about 10 concerts since then, and only one sounded as good in concert as he did on the record. If you haven't reacted to Live Aid you should.

Incredible!!!! This is absolutely perfection at its best aside from live aid❤️❤️❤️ thank you for all your reviews! Freddie Mercury loved Aretha Franklin. This was his solo version of the song which is different from the album. This song on the album sounds like a love song and live it is all soul & Somewhat gospel. Every band member was a genius!!
