  1. The Best Remasters, track by track

    great summation of info, Rhye... so could it be that Peter Mew's remasters for the CJ set in 1998 were utilized as-is for the 2001 Japan remasters (obviously only for Queen through The Game)? also, not to jump the gun...

  4. The Best Remasters, track by track

    My preferred version of the debut album is from the Crown Jewels set (1998 remasters, also by Peter Mew at Abbey Road, interestingly) and there's no drop-out glitch at the end of My Fairy King on it...

  5. Singles Box III - Missing guitar...?

    yes, Peter Mew did the remastering for the Singles Collections at Abbey Road studios. They are NOT the same masters that appear on AG or previous Japan 2001 reissues. These are NEW (2009-2010) masters. As i said in a...

  6. Singles Collection V3 MLHBS

    I have all three... personally think they're quite nice, and the remastering is superb. Absolute Greatest is over-compressed for loudness, but the Peter Mew Abbey Road work for the singles collections brings out the s...

  7. I tried, I failed. No problem. We move on. Nothing ventured, NOTHING gained

    i must be dense... i was under the impression that there can only be ONE "master" recording... so, he has / she has this or that in the band archives / personal archives - fine. BUT SOMEONE HAS THE ORIGINAL AND EVERYO...

  8. The Value of Multitracks

    bluephoenix... you have these in a digital form or physical form (as in the actual 2-inch tape master, or a copy of the 2-inch tape master)?

  9. Hangman - everything we know about the song...

    I have to say thanks to JSS for mentioning his great discourses of the past... I've been glued to the monitor all evening reading his past posts on the mythical "box set" ... from nearly SIX YEARS AGO. I respect your...

  11. Singles Box #3 now on pre-order... I'm almost tempted - ALMOST

    I realize there are very mixed feelings for these sets by the fans - mostly very negative. I also understand the cries for something NEW from QPL (which I very much want as well) as opposed to the singles which have b...

  12. Queen - Boston 09-02-1977 (Remaster)

    Great job, Nordico / original taper / first poster!! Great concert! Thank you all...

  13. New Recording: Queen Boston Garden Boston Mass Feb 9th 1977

    Nordico - love the tweaks... please upload your remaster!! many thanks [img=http://www.queenzone.com/images/smiley/msn/teeth_smile.gif][/img]

  14. Queen Archivist : A serious question if you please

    adding my thanks for the time and insight as well, Greg... and looking forward to any / all future Queen material to be released from the vaults in whatever form!!

  15. Mooghead "Brits in particular dont like people who make them jealous."

    I can't speak on traits of Brits vs. any other nationality - i am an American, and though i consider myself well-educated as well as well-experienced, i know that my judgement of others is often incomplete at best and...

  16. Queen Acetates

    great post, Jam Monkey... very interesting stuff..

  17. Is the Queen Archivists job being undermined?

    I agree the BoRhap mutlis are the holy grail, but i'd still love to hear some of the alternate takes and unheard stuff too. Freddie singing the entire "Rock It (Prime Jive)" instead of Roger, for one. Or some remixes....

  18. Freddies last interview

    that's one of Freddie's remarks from an interview in the mid 80's... it's been officially released now, can't remember on which dvd. he'd been doing press for awhile and meant that the interview that was about to begi...

  19. E.S. Posthumus and We Will Rock You

    nope - watched the whole thing and didn't hear it either...

  20. Innuendo - sound quality...

    Remastering isn't necessarily trivial to the ears ... when done properly (like anything else) it can completely change how the song comes across. Unfortunately, too often "remastered" simply means saturated with dynam...
