Six songs from this night ended up on Live Killers - We Will Rock You (fast), Get Down Make Love, You're My Best Friend, Now I'm Here, Dreamer's Ball, and Sheer Heart Attack. See my Live Killers analysis for more details.

Freddie, after the acoustic set: "OK, it's time to do something with the electric guitar, a little rock and roll. You paid for it! This next song is from the News Of The World. It's called It's Late."

It seems that Queen archivist Greg Brooks had access to a copy of a soundboard tape of this show, as he transcribed some stage banter for his revised Queen Live book.

The second photo set was taken by Eric Morel.

This bootleg emerged in 2019. The sound quality is decent, although boomy since it's a bit distant.
