OPERA OMNIA

4 CD

Label: Red Phantom  RPBX 012/013/014/015
Country: Italy
Released: 1992
Recorded: Various tracks true the 'live' years 1973-1986. 
Sound: Very good & excellent audience and soundboard recordings.
Comments: Superb box with full color 24 page booklet. This box contains live versions of almost every Queen song from every album in chronological order.  Some tracks are 'newer' live versions, than the year they was released. Would have been better with correct years.
'In The Lap Of The Gods'  NOT 'revisited' version are missing. (First track on side 2 on 'Sheer Heart Attack' 1974  LP). 
There might be one or two tracks from early days, who might be missing to, but it's unclear if they ever has been played live. Those tracks are: 'The Night Come Down' & 'Jesus'. 'Sleeping On The Sidewalk' are also missing, only played ones on 1977 US tour. Opening concert, I think it was.

Roots: Various other bootleg, tapes etc.....
Time: 79:17 / 75:53 / 78:30 / 72:17
