Tinafea recommended this thread to me today on twitter and I have started reading from page one. Still have a ways to go :D
Completely fascinated.
Thank you so much Talon for all of your input, videos and help. Just an amazing band!!!
Loved the London concert.

www.mediafire.com/?uzd18265e7dnqHi all, the guy who gave us Hammersmith Day II, went back to his audio and with a new source made a new 3 source mix of Day II. Not a TON different than what I provided previously but it is a better version in someways. Hammersmith Day II FLAC Version II! Oooo this is the one I went to, thanks!

talon, could you compile all the links to HQ and/or FLAC downloads of the six shows in one post? I'm missing London #3 and Kiev. ETA: Just realised I torrented London #3 Is there no FLAC version of Kiev? Or a good recording at least 320kb MP3 in stereo? Failing that where can I get the best audio from the broadcast?

Talon, hope you had a wonderful time with your family :D A little bit of hope that may make you happy from Brian May's soapbox - (Currently Budapest nearly finished and Rainbow concerts are in the works)... or is this OLD news for you? ;D www.brianmay.com/brian/brianssb/brianssb.html**Sat 04 Aug 12** IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE...
[In reply to question whether 70s concerts could be made available on DVD - see LETTERS]
... It's not that simple.
I suppose it would be fine if we just shoved the contents of an old VHS video on a DVD, but everybody would immediately complain about the lack of quality.
Instead, our guys regard each possible new DVD as a challenge … and they spend many months on each one, researching the best undiscovered sources, compiling, repairing, restoring - sound and vision - and the result is always something very special.
Currently Budapest is nearly finished, but the Rainbow concerts are in the works too. I don't know what you mean by 'second time' for the Budapest show … it's certainly never been officially on DVD before, because we had to buy the rights and buy the actually film in order to make this DVD.
The simple answer is … we can only do so much.
But thanks for asking. We also think some of the early concerts are interesting to reclaim.
cheers

Hi all! Driving back from out vacation now...well the wife is anyways. So I thought I'd pop in on my phone . Tomorrow I'll start class up again TG. I'm very comfortable at the pace I'm going and if it gets to be too much, I'll slow down then . ileanne - Welcome! Any question you have at any time will be answered...feel free to interrupt the current song/discussion for a different question of comment on an older song NG - I dont believe a FLAC showed up for Kidv. When I get home I will post a link to the best I found. Gabby - thanks for the news! I did see it but it is exciting. Budapest is only mildly exciting. It wa out on VHS back in the day but it will be a nice bluray . Rainbow though! That will get Queen fans excited. I do wonder if Brian had a brain fart though and meant Hammersmith since that was mentioned previously. I do like that he said concert(S) though. The Rainbow gigs from 1974 would be amazing as there hasn't been that much that surfaced of the first of the Rainbow gigs! Hammersmith though would be great too! 1975 is famous but 1979 is considered one of the greatest Queen gigs ever! I would live to get then in high quality :D

Welcome back-ish! Hope you had a good time I watched some more Queen Extravaganza clips yesterday. Jeff Scott Soto's Dragon Attack is really good, as is his Bowie impression with Marc Martel on Under Pressure - best song of the set overall imo.

Whew...just got home :D Yes we had a great time, thanks for asking! I saw QE in Boston and it was a helluva show. GREAT set list for the old school Queen fan. I love Jeff Scott Soto. I'll have to find it later but he did a whole Queen set of his own at a fan convention once. It was absolutely brilliant. My favs from QE was the Lap of the Gods medley, Save Me, Somebody To Love, Under Pressure (agreed there) and Bohemian Rhapsody. REALLY high quality musicians! Hopefully they will tour again...after QAL comes to the US of course Lynne - :D Excellent ! Almost totally different songs But both excellent! I actually can't wait to start this project up again...tomorrow morning with the rare eclectic session track that was recorded at the time for the album, but wasn't released until 1991 as a B-Side! - Mad The Swine

What are the odds of QE making it over here? I think my granny would love them. We saw We Will Rock You last year too.

I think you have a 50/50 shot of having QE over there. I think it will be awhile still though. I think it would do the South America/Japan runs first. At that point if it still has legs, I wouldn't be shocked although as the place MOST likely to get a real Queen show, it would probably wait until the end of the end
