ANNOUNCE FLAC: 1984 The Works Tour Mega Torrent

Great King Rat from Dortmund, please! [img=/images/smiley/msn/confused_smile.gif][/img]

Is there anyone having the same problem as me???
From Dortmund concert it says Keyboard Solo lasts 3:50 but at 2:13 stops playing
From Vienna 30/9 Machine Intro says it lasts 2:03 but it stops at 1.39!!!

I remember being decompressing the rar files while I was doing some other works in my computer, can it be that???
Please someone respond to this, so I can star downloading the files again
Thanks in advance!!!

Yes, the problem in Keyboard Solo is the same. It seems this concert was downloaded from torrent and Keyboard Solo and Great King Rat were not completed. It's strange that uploader doesn't post any replies in this topic.

Here is your wanted reply.....

Some of the shows are coming from a good friend of mine. These shows are burned on CD-recordables which are in some cases more than 10 years old.
Quality of these CD-recordables are not always good. That's why there are some little songs of 1.5 kb (EAC can't repair them) and I forgot to remove those files.

I'm sharing what I have.
Most of the concerts are okay, some are not.

My wish is that somebody of you all has a good and complete recording of these "damaged" shows.
It's also kind of a "trick" to share what I have, to get a good and complete recording back from somebody else.
As you can read.....it works in some cases.

I will continue soon with 1982 megatorrent.
Maybe there are again some failures, who knows ????

It's ofcourse your good right to place comments on my share's, but I can't garantee that I can solve these problems like missing tracks, damaged files etc. Anyway, it's important to talk about it.

You all will get what I have. If you have it better, more complete or without damaged files, be so gentle to post it here for everybody so everybody can enjoy (including myself).

I hope you can understand my point and situation.

It's not nice to read here: "It's strange that uploader doesn't post any replies in this topic." because I have also a life beside of Queenzone and  the queenhub.

Anyway..... I will continue with 1982 (hopefully in a few hours).

Best regards,

From London 8.9.1984 miss bohemian rhapsody... anyone that has it?

Three years ago, the taper sent off a first gen backup to get transferred and put online, and a song is now missing from what is passed off as some kind of definitive 1984 torrent.  The taper and transferrer did so much work to get this to us in the best quality possible, and we can't even keep all the songs in one place, nor even bother to check it before formally redistributing it?

You did a great job overall with 1985 and 1986, but 1984 is far from complete, as 15 of the 24 recordings in this torrent are not the definitive versions.  Many of those 15 have even been shared here before.  It should be all about quality, not quantity.

1982 will be the last year to share by me (all work is done right now).

Reason.....

Sir GH and others knows better, have better, can things better organize than myself (it seems).
Maybe somebody else can pickup this sharing idea....if not.....bad luck for you.

I'm ready with this "project" which looks like a failure to me :(

Thanx for those people who have placed nice words because I did post a concert which was not in their collection.

I don't want to waste my energy for people like "Sir" GH

I have nothing more to say.

All I'm suggesting is we have an open discussion about each of the recordings, which would hopefully lead to these posts having the best possible versions.  I'm not trying to discourage you from what you're doing, and I certainly didn't say I wouldn't help out with recordings if you asked for them.

Let's have some meaningful dialogue, for everyone's benefit.  This isn't some kind of personal attack, and I'm sorry if you took it that way.

I think you are right about it.
I take my reaction in my last post complete back and apologise for my not so nice, overreacted words.
I keep the post unedited so people can understand your last reply.

Anyway I stop posting previous years than 1982 because I don't have the energy to find everything out to post the exact best copy which is around in Queenworld.

You did before very good work for the Queenworld Sir GH, I forgot it for a little moment in my reaction before.
I'm sorry for this.

Greetings

Nobody does... this is why most of us share shows individually. :-)

Feel free to contact me about any concert, and I'll help out in any way I can.

Either way, I definitely encourage you to keep going, and I'm sure plenty of other people do too.  Just to lighten your work load, maybe you can focus on shows that haven't been shared here before.  It should be much easier to reseed old torrents than to create new ones.

My Dortmund version comes from Bokkepoot so I can't help with GKR & Keyboard solo.
Anyone have it from elsewhere?

Thank you very much:)

Keep up the good work, really !!

I share Bob's opinions but I go further, as I think every version must be shared (even if not especially by the same person !). I mean, every tape has its own life, its own story, its own interest. Every taper has the right to think, "well, maybe my version was not the best, but my work and the risks I took are now rewarded, my version is here with quality preserved, and everybody can enjoy it". After all, every version is different.
The thing is we have to know what we download, and what is the interest in it, before uploading, and we have of course to keep the information for passing that along... hence the interest of a discussion.
After that, the multi-sourced versions are there to create the ultimate version of a show, picking up all that is needed in every recording that can be used.

I have always dreamt about a global index here on Queenzone, with all the versions listed (and shared !) and a link to find it easily for everyone and every newbie. That would be the ultimate way of managing a forum isn't it ? It seems like essential in fact (at least it's my opinion !). I was thinking about creating one of those indexes for Queen (after dealing with Roger and The Cross), as Queenzone team never did (if I'm right). In fact, I promised to keep quiet on Queenzone some months ago, but the devil is inside me, and I wanted to help with an index so after "Queen + Paul Rodgers 2005/2006" and "Queen + Paul Rodgers 2008", I started one about Brian May as a solo artist (which I am not the only one to find very interesting). But as far as the Queen concerts are concerned, you came first and shared everything year by year !! So...

So, maybe it's not the definitive versions, at least you share all you can ,which is just fabulous. After that, I think, once everything is online, we could gather and take each show one after the other and say "well, we [url=http://www.lists]know[/url] 3 different versions of that show (thanks Martin and Bob for your websites ! Too much is thanks is not enough), and here they are, and this one is better than this one for that, but this other one is really enjoyable too because of some more minutes being recorded or this and that", share directly from the silvers when possible (I'll do my best to help on that matter if needed), and share the closest from the masters able. This could be used after a while to create a general index, and to definitely clear everyone's collection, and definitely replace low quality with high quality. And I'm sure everybody would be happy to be able to do so. Just look outside the Queen community for other bands' communities, we are far from perfect, and not that well organized... If we can succeed in that, if we all show some good soul and help the little we can here and there, with a positive attitude, I am sure Queenzone's team will be interested in creating that general definitive index, that would only need to be updated when a new source or a better version is discovered. If Richard doesn't take the time to do it, I would do, at the only condition that Queenzone or someone else accepts to maintain it if needed after that.

My guess is almost everyone is REALLY busy downloading now, and will until the first years are shared. I undestand you became irritated because of the really hard work done (my god, so many shows, in torrent and rapidshare, go have some needed sleep now !! ;o) ). But please know that your work here is really interesting, very important in fact, and a good starting point. Starting from there, we can say that most of the Queen shows will be found on Queenzone in 2009, with fresh links and torrents that will probably be seeded a long time (I really hope so !). 
I would feel like a politician saying "2009 will be the year of the change, if we all show some solidarity and brotherhood and help on this project for the benefit of the whole community. Yes, we can !".  But the idea is there ! Vote bokkepoot for President !!
