99 % of all live albums/dvds have studio work on them (or at least audio from other gigs where it went smoothly. I seem to remember roger screwed up days of our lives in sheddield 05 and the audio in question was taken from another gig?)
If you take a stand against overdubs on live albums, there are virtually no live albums availble for you. even Purple's Made in Japan has certain things that were fixed in the studio, when Gillan missed a cue or something

There are plenty of bootlegs and ROIOs out there (obviously much more than there are official live albums). Official live albums suck big time.
What was the joke that Roger said about the Live Killers album? Something like "the only thing live there is the bass drum". That's a testimony to the quality of official live albums.

Brian states on his website that the reason there is no Blu-Ray is because the format hasn't taken off as well as expetced.
What planet does Brian live on?
Blu-Ray has taken off faster than any other format has, and sales in the US alone totalled 9 million units this quarter - that's double what it was last year. I gather UK sales are a similar ratio!
Let's face it.
They're doing the "lets make them buy the DVD (the only way to get the CD), and then we'll release the Blu-Ray later so they can all buy it again." routine.
I know it's cynical,, but that's how I see Queen Productions these days, what with all the re-releases they're doing.
Vinyl albums indeed. Get them remastered into 5.1 and give us something different!

Indeed - my thoughts too Even the major supermarkets (along with specialist retailers like HMV etc..) have dedicated Blu Ray sections for all the latest releases.
If I recall, Queen were one of the first artists released on CD (I remember GHI being the only CD I possessed for ages!), when hardly anyone had a CD player - far more people have Blu Ray now than had CDs when Queen first started getting released in that format.
What was the point of recording it in HD otherwise, other than for the benefit of the couple of dozen people who went to see it at the cinema?!!?

Queen were also one of the first artists to release something on VCD, and Blu-Ray is WAY bigger than that ever was.

Not even available to come in and do some overdubs??

If they did what they did with Say It´s Not True, wich I consider a true miracle, I can´t believe they couldn´t also save those songs !

Am I getting it right that you people actually accept this thing? "Saving" live albums by overdubbing and fixing live material later in the studio? You don't think that it's cheating, that it's dishonest and rewriting history on a par with Stalin airbrushing people out of photographs?
[/QUOTE]
Don't you WISH that Brian had overdubbed more vocals on the Brixton Academy release?
I do! I can't play that album... my cat will demolish the curtains...
On a serious note: overdubbing stuff in the studio is STANDARD procedure in the music industrie. Official live albums without them are a rarity.
No-body except for some puritan fanboys want to hear a record on which te artist fucks up.
[/QUOTE]
The only record I can think of that was never overdubbed (and still isn't) is Two For the Show- Kansas
So if you want a REAL live album, then that's the best you will get.
