Queen - Live in New York (1st December, 1977)

Queen Live in New York City, New York, USA Date: 1st December, 1977 Venue: Madison Square Garden Attendance: 20,000 Audience Recording Quality: B+/B- The first of two shows at the garden this tour is a solid one. Freddie sounds a bit weaker here than Philadelphia. This could be due to Freddie’s laryngitis he caught in Landover. He still sounds decent, but has some trouble hitting higher notes. The band are still great, and are getting into the festive spirit as shown by Brian during his guitar solo. This tape’s better sounding source is in pretty good quality (though pretty rough at highest frequencies) and the inferior source is pretty bad with it sounding distance and boomy.
