1 CDR
| Label: | Gypsy Eye Project |
| Country: | Japan |
| Released: | September 2009 |
| Recorded: | Live at The Palace, Los Angeles, CA. USA April 6th. 1993 |
| Sound: | Excellent stereo radio FM broadcast. |
| Comments: | The first pro-cdr bootleg which contains
more tracks than previously bootleg versions. The Dark, Back
To The Light & Now I'm Here, has been missed on all
the others. To me it looks like 2 more songs is missing, to make
this show complete. Normally they played 'Love Token'
& 'Headlong' after 'Tie Your Mother Down'.
I guess they played this 2 songs on this gig to. Anyway, this Gypsy Eye release is the most complete release of this show so far. The 2 mention track has never been on any broadcast, or promo release, so they will probably never seen daylight. Even I can't confirm, I'm quite sure they did perform them. It would have been very unusual to move from hard rocker song 'Tie Your Mother Down' to slow acoustic song 'Love Of My Life'. On this 2 month US tour which cover 22 concerts, the band was supporting Guns N Roses for about 17 gigs. This show was the last date of Brian's US tour, and was NOT a support act. This gig was recorded for promotional use, and broadcasted on 'Westwood One radio', and later as 'Coca Cola Planet Live'. Promo cd's are available from this broadcastings, and this release are compiled from these promo cd's. (There's a few track variance between these promos). This was Brian May's first 'proper' tour with is own band. On June 15th. they played at Brixton Academy in London, which has been released officially on CD and VHS video. Tracks 8 - 12, is played more like a medley, without breaks between the tracks. |
| Roots: | From promotional (radio promo) cd's. |
