6. A Kind Of Magic (Queen-Live In Mannheim: 6/21/1986)

Once in awhile, I stumble across a bootleg concert that has nearly perfect sound quality: This is one of them. This is EASILY a top 5 bootleg in terms of quality! You know why? That’s because this two-sourced gig came straight from the SOUNDBOARD! The sound is nearly as good as an official release! This gig is also 100% complete! Anyway... This is one of my favorite Magic Tour gigs. Although Freddie’s voice isn’t quite as strong as he was during the first Magic gigs (Stockholm, Leiden, etc), his voice holds up very well throughout this whole concert (a top notch version of We Are The Champions is performed), and still sings very powerfully! His voice is roughly in the same shape as it is during the future Budapest and Frejus gigs (give or take a few songs). With these parameters in set, we are guaranteed a kick-ass concert! ENJOY!!! Note: Marillion frontman Fish, joins Queen on stage for “Tutti Frutti.“
