1986
JANUARY
Abbey Road Studios, London (Freddie Mercury solo session)
MID-AUGUST 1986
unknown studio (Pain Is So Close To Pleasure session)
- Note: In the Autumn '86 fan club newsletter, it was reported that Pain Is So Close To Pleasure was re-recorded following the Magic tour for a US-exclusive release. The specifics – studio, personnel, etc. – of this are unknown, and it's likely that the single may have just been remixed instead of being a fresh recording, as the single was released on 26 August, giving the band, management, production team, and Capitol Records a little over two weeks to record, edit, mix, press, and distribute the single.
