Freddie sounding a little like Barry White - i think the taqoe needs speeding up slightly!

i just use a free audio/video player called Kmplayer that has a tool that let's me play audio and video at the speed that i want and not restritect to -0,75% or +1,5% like Power DVD for example.

Hello All

Thank you for your Pms and Remarks I will be Uploading a Link soon for part 1 of the concert so please be patient,
and surely hearing and sharing more Rare queen Gigs is better than not ???[img=/images/smiley/msn/whatchutalkingabout_smile.gif][/img]

It definitely is. Does it mean that you offer more ? [img=/images/smiley/msn/regular_smile.gif][/img]

Hello Anthony,

Thanks a LOT for sharing this one. I have listened to it through headphones last night and several times again today. Being a fan for almost 20 years, I somehow lost interest in Queen (after all the post made in heaven crap they released) but listening to this gem made me realise again how much I love this band...Made me very happy and smile all day! Almost the same feeling I had when I heard a new Queen album for the first time in my youth.

Thanks so much for being so generous and share it overhere. I know for sure you made a lot of Queen fans very happy!

Kind regards,
Dennis

You can only really hear the earth loop on the quiet passages; it just adds atmosphere to the rest. Lovely!

I can't say it better then Dennis althought I share his experience only with "Innuendo" and "Made In Heaven" (the curse of a late birth).
You can be sure that it will never ever come to an official release of this recording, because then they have to face the old ghosts again which gave them a bad press back in 1984. I'm sure they would have to explain themselves again and again.
By the way, does anybody know when they made it public that they will play Sun City? In my books I found different contents about that fact.

Sorry to bust your balls again, Ducksoup, but you made a funnie and don't even know it.

Being a fan for almost 20 years...blah blah blah... Almost the same feeling I had when I heard a new Queen album for the first time in my youth.

So this concert made you feel like you just got Innuendo or The Miracle?

I thought it was a hell of a lot better than that.

Good for you.

the multitacks last year did it for me;)

But that was kinda multipleorgasm with first KQ and later the rest...

i have tried to do the right thing and would love to see it released and remastered just like all the other Bootlegs
and all profits going to the apropriate Charity.
 

Just fyi - the other bootlegs they've released were almost all recorded by audience members, sold unofficially for years before Queen took them, didn't remaster them at all and released them...plus they've also infringed the copyright of both Yellowvision & the BBC in doing so.

So you'd be better placed to nominate a charity yourself, and upload a lossless version of this once a certain level of donation has been reached.  As others have said - an official release of this material would be too politically sensitive, plus they'd probably overdub it all...

On the WUM allegations - plenty of people have visited this site and made all sorts of wild claims that turned out to be untrue.  Your recording is suitably wild to have tarred you with the same brush initially - well done for being patient and persistent.

Thanks for posting the fuller version - can I reasonably objectively suggest that both Sir GH & YourValentine can offer worthwhile advice on the distribution of this material safely.  Also, I think I detected a reticence to share your memories - let me reassure you that there would be more interest in the concert than the political context.

Seconded!

Any news?

"Thank you for the recording! Adiós amigos, you motherfuckers! You bunch of tacos, goodbye!"

Amidst all the chaos the band were locked in an underground room, where John Deacon, who was claustrophobic, was not having a particularly good time. Here the band were forced to sign a legal document ensuring they wouldn't never publish this recording, to prevent riots.
