Concert For Kampuchea

OK.  Lazy way out, but I've had a bit of search on the Internet and can't find much info.  Obviously the footage was originally professionally shot - any idea if this is ever going to get an official release (the entire Queen part of the 4 days).  From the sh*t but 'hats off for putting this up guys' footage on you tube it would appear that this would be a cracker to secure on DVD.  Queen in their prime.........................with a sweaty 'up-close' audience...!

Since the arrogant people of this forum won't answear your, because they believe it 's a waste of wisdom to take care of previoulsly asked questions, I'll do it with pleasure.

The Concert For The People Of Kampuchea is not scheduled to be officialy released in the near future.
It'll be like a dream come true, but it wont happen' in a few years, possibly never in DVD.

Cheers.

Maybe the arrogant people of the forum had other things to do in the short few hours between his post and yours ...   someone would've gotten to it eventually.  Cheer up!

Thank you non-arrogant one!

i dont know how to upload yet but if you send me your email i will send a copy to you ive got it on dvd ok

I'll certainly be ignoring any posts from you in the future.

Greg Brooks has stated that they have the video, and would like to release it, but have decided not to release it until they obtain a multitrack of the audio so they can make a proper surround mix, as they're not entirely satisfied with the stereo track they have.

Hi Thomas - that's really useful.  Maybe another future gem to look forward to!

Until they obtain a multitrack of the audio?.  Are they expecting to find one somewhere... or is it something that can ba produced?.

not EVERYTHING needs to be in fucking surround sound!

He he he... good ones.

Bye.

Greg said he thought it was stolen. At the least it has been lost. He seems to suspect that someone out there has it.

Agreed.  The concert itself wasn't performed in 5.1, so why should the DVD be that way?  But the need for a multi-track seems like it's more of a desire to overdub than to do a surround mix.

The Who finally released Kilburn 1977 in its entirety, and the sound is mono.  It's raw, and it's real.  I can't see why Queen can't follow with one of their shows from the era, as long as the video and audio are in decent enough shape.  I guess it's all about how we define "decent"...

There's a 5.1 of Kilburn - not that I have the equipment to make use of such an arrangement.

No need to tell it to US :-)

Personally I ALWAYS listen to a stereo PCM track on a music DVD (if it has one).
I still think that a 5.1 mix is necessary to Star Wars, not to a rock concert recording
