Wow. The last two had covers with live photos. Neither of them contained live tracks.
Wow.

I dont get this whole Deep Cuts concept, why would someone new to Queen : buy Greatest Hits 1&2 or the Platinum collection, the Deep Cuts compilations and finally all the albums? THIS isnt overflooding the market ? or a money-grabber ?
and by looking at that tracklist of Deep Cuts 3 I cant help to think that..... Queen Rocks wasnt all that bad : /

LOL - um, OK. Actually the cover on Deep Cuts 3 is NOT a 'live' photo - it's a photo from the Princes Of The Universe video shoot (isn't it??), so I thought that was strange. That was my point.
But nevermind...

Deep Cuts 1 - great looking set, like an early 70's single cover? Deep Cuts 2 - brilliant funny cover Deep Cuts 3 - bad bootleg?

Pretty sure they're not going to put the full album version of It's a Beautiful Day on the album. Probably be up to the "Yeah" part. Also like how the album ends with Mother Love.... Freddie's last song he recorded.

Also, I couldn't agree more about Scandal. Once again, no respect. Such a shame.
Left off Greatest Hits/Flix II, Greatest Hits/Flix III and now DC 3.
Thank God for the Greatest Video Hits 2 DVD release and the Hollywood CD release (1991) of The Miracle (which contains the awesome Scandal 12" remix).

I got the impression from the Video Hits II commentary that Roger didn't think too highly of "Scandal," particularly the video, which he said "for a song named 'Scandal,' it wasn't scandalous enough." I think he liked the sentiment, if not the execution. That might have been enough to leave it off the collection.
Also, you have to consider that they may have wanted to leave a few gems on the albums so when new fans picked up, say, The Works, they'd be blown away by the "Keep Passing The Open Windows." It might not have been a game of 'which song is better than another song,' but of 'let's show how diverse we are, beyond the Hits.'
