"In The Beginning" bootleg

"In The Beginning", from Miko company.
From the silvers.

De Lane Lea Demos, 1971.
Excellent stereo studio recording.

Lineage :
In The Beginning (silvers) -> Wav (EAC) -> Flac (Frontend level 8)



Here is one for Pittrek especially, and for everyone who wants to know more about Queen in the early days. It is also a good way to compare the demo and the final release, on the first Queen album (buy it if you don't have, and buy the second one too !). Compare the production and see how polished Queen's work is when the product is ready for commercial release.

This one contains the De Lane Lea demos from 1971. As said on the sleeve (see complete artwork), those files were used by Queen to sign a contract with music companies. They were recorded in a studio for free, a way to test the studio which was brand new. They needed a band who could play loud, and Brian May met one of the persons involved in the setting up of this studio.

Once again, "The Night Comes Down" has been deleted from this share, as the file was also used on the official release.

Files are checked as perfectly lossless by Audiochecker, which means we don't have something coming from a bootleg company who used lossy files as that can happen sometimes. Which simply means quality is preserved, from the day it was recorded to nowadays, no loss of quality. So please don't try and waste this, just as some south american blogs made by uploading these tracks (including the official one, out of respect for the band). Just try and use lossless, nothing difficult. If you can't, then make them mp3, but don't trade them, nor sell them etc... Keep it for you.
That's said, in an aside.

Now, enjoy, and compare the quality with the tracks previously shared in the "For Dreamers Only" topic.


You will find two archive files, containing music files of course, complete artwork, info.txt and various logs and txt files which for you can mean nothing but are appreciated by the persons who would receive it from a trade with you. Feel free to modify them or create new ones if you wish, but don't forget to keep the information as complete as possible. Just as with concerts, lineage will be appreciated in your possible next shares.

When I listen to that, I just think about 4 french words : "crême de la crême". 1971 demos for your ears and it's just like caviar for your mouth... Well, I don't like caviar anyway. Those 5 songs are essential in my opinion for every collection as well as for curious people wanting to discover a little more things about Queen in the early days. Pre-Queen is also very interesting !

Hope you'll like it. Time to go to sleep now.
Here are the files :

damn, this looks as a must have

thanks a lot for sharing

Thanks a lot!

I'm very happy with what's happening in the announce forum these days. Good job, guys.

Thank you very much.
I only had it in mp3.

Thank you VERY much ! My version is too loud (is "distored" the correct term ? ) so I hope this will be an upgrade for me

Engulfed by the wave of excellent downloads here, I just can say thank you very much Olivier!

Too much, Daffy, if you want to thank me, just do it by adding your own comments to those files maybe ?
I don't know if there are several versions of these demos, which ones are the best ones. This bootleg is a must-have in my opinion, but maybe better versions exist also. They were also included in the "For Dreamers Only" boot for example. Maybe it could be great to know where the best version can be found !!

MERCI BEAUCOUP OLIVIER

Thank you for the upgrade!

Really, really great ... many thanks Olivier !

Great information! and many thanks for these - hopefully they're an upgrade to mine.

Thank you very much Olivier for sharing this one!!
