Question for GREG BROOKS

Hi Greg,

Just a short question : can you tell us : what is the earliest queen live audio recording in the archieves ? You claim you don;t have the marquee show, but what is the oldest recording of a queen live show that qp have?

Any one take a bet at it ?

According to his post, Rainbow '74, March show is the earliest.

Golders Green must exist... I have it in sounboard quality... and complete... I can´t imagine QP didn´t...

You have a radio-broadcast, possibly supplemented with a good audience recording.

As an addition: Golders Green IS available on serious format - apart from the FULL UNEDITED VERSION which exists as a MASTER - the edited version also exists as a BBC transcription disc LP.

I know this for sure - as I have BOTH the BBC MASTER and the LP versions - but as far as I am aware - Queen Productions are already aware of this.
So is this a case of BBC copyright - or does QP genuinely not hold a professional copy (or "...Serious format...") of this gig?

If it is truely the case that QP do NOT have a 'master copy', I would certainly offer it up - provided certain caveats were in place.[/QUOTE]

I think that would be Golders Green Hippo. Sept 73. Nothing predates that that I can recall.

I'd keep a close eye on your wallet if you ever go near Queen productions again.

So this too has suddenly been found - or is it a case that QP would rather settle for a bootleg CD than the actual master tape?
