City:	San Francisco CA, USA
Venue:	Winterland Ballroom
Date:	March 30, 1975

An early tour itinerary listed this show as March 28. The final fanfare of Now I'm Here sounds a bit empty, as Brian is either changing guitars or missed Roger's (not overly distinct) cue out of his brief drum solo. Freddie then greets the audience: "Thank you and good evening. The nasty Queenies are back! Wadaya think of that? They're just beautiful. It's really nice to be back [the band didn't visit the west coast in 1974, so he's referring to previous shows in the state over the past few days]. It really is. Thank you very much for the welcome. Right now we'd like to do Ogre Battle." The photo sets were taken by Ron Draper and Hubert Tung respectively.

Just three songs from this show exist in nice enough quality, lacking bass likely because the taper was near stage left right in front of Brian May's stack of Vox AC30s. The taper recorded Mahogany Rush's entire set, only leaving room for 11 minutes of Queen on what little tape he brought.

This is a slightly higher generation copy of the San Francisco fragment, but there are a few seconds of extra tape at the beginning and end of the recording.
