Live Killers In Japan

Comment:

Audience recording from the fourth night at the Budokan Hall in Tokyo 1979. The sound quality is average as it's not very clear. Some clicks here and there on CD 1. Complete long concert if you don't count the slight cuts in Keep Yourself Alive and You're My Best Friend. If You Can't Beat Them and Fat Bottomed Girls were both not played. No copy errors. It might look like mp3 sourced, but it's not. Some of the hiss has been removed at some point, so that's why it misses some of the high frequencies.

Live at the Budokan 1979

Comment:

A second audience recording. This average distant recording sounds a tad worse than the first source. Love Of My Life and Brighton Rock are both cut and are missing a big portion. You're My Best Friend and We Will Rock You are both slight cut. '39 and It's Late are missing.. No copy errors. Not from mp3.

Frenzy at the Budokan

Comment:

A third audience recording of this concert was released by a bootleg label called Tarantura. This ''Mr. Peach'' recording has great sound quality, besides that it has the usual compression and loudness war like most of the releases of this bootleg label. The recording features the complete concert. This recording is part of a 3-disc package including the 13th of April 1979 recording. No copy errors. Not from mp3.

Up Field Tapes Budokan Vol.2

Comment:

A fourth audience recording from the fourth night at the Budokan Hall in Tokyo 1979. This source comes from bootleg label Soldier's Things. The sound quality is not good and has distortion all the way through. '39 is cut from the beginning, but otherwise complete recording. Somehow it's NOT lossless. No copy errors.
