  • Here's my Christmas gift to all of you lovely subscribers! We have the nearly complete audience recording from Queen's first Montreal concert of 1981! With this recording now available, we can now compare it to "We Will Rock You," and "Rock Montreal." It is very interesting: Some of the songs and lines match up with one concert DVD (WWRY or Rock Montreal), and others don't. This raises the question of overdubs on the official releases, and possible patchwork from the second night (though we don't have the audience recording from that night). What we can be sure, is that overdubs done on WWRY, were removed for the Rock Montreal release (some songs match Rock Montreal, but they don't match WWRY, but they match this recording)! Though I am skeptical of this claim, I have read posts concerning that there was "autotune" work done for Rock Montreal. We can debate and comment on the videos about this!
    Freddie's voice is in excellent shape on this recording, and he delivers some versions of songs, that are better than the second night (Somebody To Love, Under Pressure, and We Are The Champions being prime examples). Although this is counterbalanced by him flubbing the lyrics in Let Me Entertain You, and oversinging the HELL out of Killer Queen! The quality on this concert is pretty good overall (though the pitch is unstable during the first few minutes), and it's mostly complete (Dragon Attack, the Now I'm Here Reprise, and Love Of My Life are missing)!
    ENJOY!!!

    Imagine if he hit the C5 on this version and they used the version from the other night for the official release, haha!

    I always liked the way he sang the rock section on Rock Montreal, either it was overdubbed or the audio was taken from the other night's concert. But Montreal 1981 will always be one of my top live BR performances.

      it was an overdub and recorded in the studio at 1982

      @switchpointproductions7927 Před 3 měsíci +1

      The official version of BR is the first night all the way through. If you listen to it on rock Montreal the small voice crack he has during the rock section lines up with this.

    I love your channel. I also love to watch Freddie perform. He was the best frontman of all time. Ive been a Queen fan since the late 70s. Phenomenal.

    That second verse is probably the best straight-Bb4 verse he's ever done, in terms of power, confidence, pitch, etc. Even Live Aid's has him wavering towards the end, and isn't as powerful.

      And pronunciation as well. His pronunciation on "face" sounded really good. EU Game Tour versions of the pronunciation sounded weird. Sounded more like "pace"

    My God, I wish for Queen's 40th, they'd release both nights of the concert without any overdubs, or some new videos that they found that are up at the SIS show in England. Or a 70's concert! Come on Queen productions!!

    Considering the decision made to cut out somebody to love it is safe to say we are very lucky to have the first night’s version of Bohemian Rhapsody.

    Is this overdubbed to the official release? The first part is completely identical and i'm quite confused, because DVD looks 100% in sync. Did they put both video and audio of first night to the official DVD release?
