ANNOUNCE: London 31.03.1974 FLAC - PRE LP

I'm definitely convinced that this show was intended to be an official release. This is two perfect sides of vinyl. It's 37 minutes, there are edits between songs, and there are vocal overdubs (and perhaps musical overdubs too).

It's pretty much impossible to tell.. !

Talk to Sikke, he claims he's got the complete show.

In a way I think it's a shame that they overdubbed their live material, id rather heard Queen live how they really were..

Yeah, he claims a lot of things... and I don't believe a word of them. We've never once heard any kind of a sample of his outrageous claims (and of course by sheer coincidence he's horrible at replying to emails), so until then, it's guilty until proven innocent in my books.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanx for this one !

Sounds interesting.
Thank you for sharing.

Thank you very much!

very generous of you - thanks!

It supposed to be an official release, a shame it didn't see the light as an official album, i could be in the same level as Made in Japan or Live at leeds, who knows

Many thanks - I'm really looking forward to hearing this- this was the first Queen bootleg i aqcuired when I was 13 years old- a cassette tape nonetheless taken off the LP Sheetkeekers....back then I dreamt of finding the original LP...never thought i would be able to get an low generation recording...wow thank god for technology :)

I don't know if this is the same as I have, but if yes, the difference between this and Shitkickers is really huge

Yeah, no kidding...

The fact that this wasn't released is a huge loss for the world of rock music.

But, let's see what the future brings. We can only hope that there will be some 70s releases.

How about a Box Set with all three Paris'79 nights, like the one was made for the 20th anniversary of DP's "Made In Japan"
God, I really should stop smokin....

Anyway, thanks again for this great recording; what a treasure!
