The album was self-produced by the band and was their first to be mixed at their own studios, Mountain Studios in Montreux, Switzerland.[2] Guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor later revealed on the US radio show In the Studio with Redbeard (which spotlighted the making of 1980's The Game) that the band had mixed Live Killers themselves and were unhappy with the final mix. Despite this, the album reached number 3 on the UK Albums Chart and number 16 on the Billboard 200 in the United States, and is certified double platinum in the US.[3][4] In the territories outside of the United States, Europe and Canada, Elektra Records re-released a shorter and edited version of the album in 1985 titled Queen Live.[5] The 1994 issue released as part of the Digital Master Series by EMI Records did not improve upon the quality of the previous release. It was later remastered and restored in better quality by Peter Mew in 2001.{{Citation needed|date=February 2012}} Track listing{{tracklist|headline = Disc 1 |title1= We Will Rock You fast |note1= Lyon 17 February |writer1 = Brian May |length1= 3:29 |title2= Let Me Entertain You |note2= Unknown |writer2 = Freddie Mercury |length2= 3:04 |title3= Death on Two Legs (Dedicated to...) |note3= Barcelona 20 February, Frankfurt 2 February |writer3 = Mercury |length3= 3:32 |title4= Killer Queen |note4= Frankfurt 2 February |writer4 = Mercury |length4= 1:59 |title5= Bicycle Race |writer5 = Mercury |note5= Frankfurt 2 February |length5= 1:29 |title6= I'm in Love with My Car |writer6 = Roger Taylor |note6= Zurich 4 February |length6= 2:01 |title7= Get Down, Make Love |note7= Frankfurt 2 February, Lyon 17 February, Barcelona 20 February, Paris 28 February, Paris 1 March |writer7 = Mercury |length7= 4:31 |title8= You're My Best Friend |note8= Lyon 17 February |writer8 = John Deacon |length8= 2:07 |title9= Now I'm Here |note9 = Frankfurt 2 February, Lyon 17 February |writer9 = May |length9= 8:44 |title10= Dreamer's Ball |note10= Lyon 17 February |writer10 = May |length10= 3:42 |title11= Love of My Life |note11= Frankfurt 2 February, Paris 27 February |writer11 = Mercury |length11= 4:59 |title12= '39 |note12= Frankfurt 2 February |writer12 = May |length12= 4:26 |title13= Keep Yourself Alive |note13= Unknown |writer13 = May |length13= 4:03 }}{{tracklist |headline = Disc 2 |title1= Don't Stop Me Now |note1= Unknown |writer1 = Mercury |length1= 4:28 |title2= Spread Your Wings |note2= Unknown |writer2= Deacon |length2= 5:14 |title3= Brighton Rock |note3= Frankfurt 2 February, Paris 28 February, Paris 1 March |writer3= May |length3= 12:13 |title4= Bohemian Rhapsody (with "Mustapha" intro) |note4= Frankfurt 2 February |writer4 = Mercury |length4= 5:51 |title5= Tie Your Mother Down |note5= Frankfurt 2 February |writer5 = May |length5= 3:43 |title6= Sheer Heart Attack |note6= Lyon 17 February |writer6 = Taylor |length6= 3:36 |title7= We Will Rock You |note7= Frankfurt 2 February |writer7 = May |length7= 2:48 |title8= We Are the Champions |note8= Paris 27 February |writer8 = Mercury |length8= 3:27 |title9= God Save the Queen |note9= Rotterdam 30 January |writer9 = Trad.; arr.
