Review: Vienna Magic (Wardour-076)
Ever since Queen’s first visit to Vienna in 1978, relatively late in their career for such an important city, they visited the Austrian capital on every tour until their last. On the Magic tour Queen played two sold out shows on July 21st and July 22nd. These were the only indoor shows on the tour and are among the best documented, both visually and aurally.
Both of these shows were taped by the same individual sitting in the a similar location. Because of these factors he produced some of the best sounding tapes from the era. They don’t have the “flatness” inherent to outdoor recordings but are very punch and lively. Queen’s Magictour was designed as a big spectacle in the biggest arenas around Europe. The setlist and performance was aimed towards that.
Hearing what was meant of the big arena in a smaller indoor venue offers a different perspective and interesting contrast to the more well known shows. The intimacy of performance is what stands out in these recordings.
Wardour pitch corrected both shows so that they run at the correct speed. The label is great at producing the exhaustive editions for Queen shows by offering both audio and video discs in one package. Vienna Magic is one of the better sounding and produced efforts for Queen’s final tour and stands as definitive along with One Sweet Moment (Wardour-032) and Thank You All (Wardour-052).

The only other silver release of this show was on Live In Vienna, Austria, July 21, 1986 on SRS records, a Russian company claiming to be based in Spain. The sound quality on that release was very good to excellent but was marred by clicks between the tracks since they use a faulty cdr. Wardour is superior in every way with more clarity and a perfect transfer of the tape.
The tape cuts in during the “God works in mysterious ways” taped introduction before the firey “One Vision,” one of Queen’s best set openers which reaches an emotional peak with Freddie’s intonation of “Look what they’ve done to my dreeeeeeeeeeeeeeem!”
“Are you ready to play?” Freddie asks before they start the first medley with “In The Lap Of The Gods…Revisited.” The final song of the medley “A Kind Of Magic” elicits audible excitement in the audience.
“Another One Bites The Dust” is introduced as a “boogie” and sounds in this recording as if it is going to smash the stage into splinters when it hits the climax with the prolonged funk guitar workout by the end. Afterwards, instead of speaking about the Queen breakup rumors, Freddie sings a bit of “Mustapha” as an introduction to “Who Wants To Live Forever?”
Before “Love Of My Life” Brian May tells the audience “I remember people can sing pretty well in Vienna” while they serenade him. “That’s enough, thank you very much. It’s my birthday morgen.” The entire acoustic set, including the classics, is very well recorded and provides an unusually intimate moment in such a massive show. The show ends with a fun version of “Crazy Little Thing Called Love.” In the first encore “Radio Ga Ga” Freddie forgets the lyrics in the first verse (the same place as in Cologne) and mumbles his way through.
