Review from the net.
It is Queen’s new sound source in 1977. Coupling recording of two performances at Maple Leaf Garden on February 1st and November 21st, which were excavated at the same time.
Since this sound source is an incomplete recording of the original tape, it is also distributed at the same time as supplementing the missing part with another sound source by overseas maniacs, but this title is a recording of only the newly excavated valuable sound source.

Both have been upgraded considerably due to the label’s own remastering, but the sound quality of November 21st is higher due to the quality of the original master. The sound source on February 1 has a lot of whistling and finger whistling sounds nearby, and that point has been corrected as much as possible.
The reason why the order of recording is in reverse order of date is that the sound source of November 21st is missing the second half, and the sound source of February 1st is missing the first half, so it is the result of considering the arrangement of the songs.
It is the best version while paying respect to the taper and considering the original sound source.
From this tour, the legendary taper, the recording sound source of the Long Beach performance by Mr. Mike Millard has also been released, so please check it out.
