We now how the correct info, St. John's Wood = White stage.

I know this doesn't help clarify anything about location but Norman Sheffield states in "Life on Two Legs" that Mansfield "had painted the whole stage a bright white" for the first video shoot. Gowers reshot them later with "smoke effects and darker lighting."
Unfortunately he doesn't mention filming location, other than to say that Trilion Video (Trident's video subsidiary) were based at Shepperton film studios.
Also, they made these "promotional films" to send to Elektra in the US.

INteresting indeed. How could they put wrong dates on the official releases. I wonder why....

.... the big research is about reading what the clapper said about the studio and the date of the filming...[/QUOTE]
Some of the date has been rubbed off the clapperboard a bit by the guys thumb.

I'm sure nothing sinister is going on regarding mislabeling on the official releases, just mistakes that's all.

The Live book is a completely new book and surpasses what has gone before, so nobody is really buying it again.
We would like a lot of the info we have found to be exclusive for the new edition and the dates/venues for the making of these promo videos are part of that.
The reason we touch on these videos is that they are a major event in Queen's history and their formative years and as the book is placed in date/month/year order, then these four video appearances will be included in their respective parts of the book.
There are some other 'non-live' stories and information to give the book a nice flow and give the book some context of what the band got up to around their live tours.
Like most product that has been released before, errors are made and mistakes in text do happen, but like all humans we strive to do it better. We hope that this book on their live (and video) appearances is the best it can be and is delivered with all the new and corrected information inside, and looks as good as we think it deserves.

There was no cut and paste in our text in the lot, why would you think that?

Fair enough Gary, it may not have been in the sections that you were responsible for.

Teddi, the screenshot of KYA you have is the Mike Mansfield version from St.Johns Wood Studios and not the Brewer Street Studios video by Bruce Gowers.
The only version that hasn't been officially released in it's entirety is the MM version of KYA.[/QUOTE]
