Queen - Live In Tokorozawa (November 3rd, 1982) [Chinwonder2’s Best Source Footage Merge] [HD 60FPS]

[All Credits To @Chinwonder2 for compiling the original merge] [NOT COMPLETE BEST SOURCE MERGE, this video only contains the footage from Chinwonder2’s Best Source Merge except for some short instances where it would be tedious to take out] Description from : City: Tokorozawa, Japan Venue: Seibu Lions Stadium Date: November 3rd, 1982 This is the final concert of the year. Although the show is traditionally attributed to Tokyo, Seibu Lions Stadium is in the suburb “Tokorozawa.“ Intro - 00:00 Flash (Tape) - 02:07 The Hero - 02:56 Now I’m Here - 04:41 Put Out The Fire - 10:15 Dragon Attack - 12:22 Now I’m Here (Reprise) - 15:21 Love Of My Life - 16:20 Save Me - 20:10 Guitar Solo [Cut] - 24:07 Under Pressure - 30:55 Crazy Little Thing Called Love - 33:06 Bohemian Rhapsody - 38:55 Tie Your Mother Down - 44:39 Teo Torriatte - 48:18 We Will Rock You - 52:35 We Are The Champions - 54:55 God Save The Queen - 58:28 Tonight, they perform the full version of Teo Torriatte once again, but in the encore, which makes room for Save Me one last time. Queen’s first live video was released in Japan in 1983 on VHS, simply entitled “Live In Japan“, comprised of about an hour of material from this concert. No songs were edited (except for Brian May’s solo spot), and no overdubs were done. Besides standard mixing, the only alterations done were in Put Out The Fire, where a bit of Freddie’s vocal improv at the beginning of the song was muted (he can be seen singing in the distant shot on the video), and in We Are The Champions, where Freddie’s lead vocal was brought down in the mix to obscure a voice crack in the second chorus. Freddie’s voice, although still strong at many points, just couldn’t remain stable for the entire evening after 7 months of touring. His voice cracks badly many times. Brian’s solo includes the only known footage of him playing the traditional Japanese song “Sakura.“ After an exhausting year of touring, there is no doubt that the band were looking forward to some time off. The tempos of many songs are very fast, and many nuances in songs like Save Me and Get Down Make Love aren’t there like they were on previous tours. Still, the band are clearly having fun on stage at many points during this last show (as seen on the video), particularly during Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Freddie even stops playing his guitar for a couple bars to have a quick swig of beer. It is perhaps the definitive version of the song, with a long jam at the end, prominently highlighting Fred Mandel on the piano. This would be Mandel’s last show with the band. He would go on to play with artists like Supertramp and Sir Elton John, one of his idols. Bearing in mind that this was an outdoor stadium show, it must have been a cold November night in central Japan, as their breath can often be seen on the video. Instruments managed to stay in tune. Tonight would be Queen’s final performances of The Hero, the fast We Will Rock You, Action This Day, Play The Game, Calling All Girls, Put Out The Fire, Save Me, Get Down Make Love, Body Language, Fat Bottomed Girls, and Teo Torriatte. They wouldn’t play another concert for nearly two years.
