Review:

Complete soundboard recording from the first night in Rio 1985. The two shows Queen played in Rio that year were really legendary performances and luckily we have now a complete recording also from the first night. The source has been the master tape of the local TV station which filmed the show. It had gotten some tape hiss over the years but I was able to "remaster" it so the sound improved from rating G to VG. Still, I'm hoping that someone has even better copy as I'm not sure how low generation copy mine is. Under Pressure has very slight, maybe 5 seconds or so cut but otherwise this is a complete concert. Very unusual is that Freddie introduces Radio Ga Ga. This is still quite hard to find show. Note that first 5 songs have slightly worse sound than the rest of the show.

Review:

This is the soundtrack of the official Live In Rio video which is a compilation of the two dates Queen performed in Rio, January 1985. Sound quality is Excellent but it really is a pity that it is so short..
