Review (Queen On Stage) : The first recording of this 'Sun City' concert, saw daylight in October 2009 on a 1cdr from the Japanese 'Gypsy Eye Project' label. In later years, a handful of pro-bootlegs has been released. In 2015 the rest of the concert was released on 2cd's. Wardour label released this concert on 2cd in April 2015, with the title 'Complete Sun City'. Now they put it out again, claimed to be in better sound quality. I can't confirm anything, but it might be true. This Wardour label use to make nice bootlegs, and shouldn't be necessary for them to tell lies. All in all, a nice documentary of a Queen concert from the 1984 -The Works Tour-. This South Africa tour was the last gigs in 1984. I'm not 100 sure how many gigs they did there. I've read the plan was 9 concert. All in Sun City. But at least one date was canceled, due to Freddie's throat problems. 'God Save The Queen' tape at the end is missing. I'm not sure why. I guess it was done, but for some reason it's not on the tape, and later not on any of the bootlegs.
