The Hague 1974 recording

Wow, amazing stuff! Always great to get something new. Would be so great to get the more complete version of this audience tape.

But I did hear a Queen concert on Radio Luxembourg, and I am pretty sure that is wasn't a concert form their Queen II tour.

You probably heard the Golders Green 1973 concert.

More overstock copies with different inserts were made :

These all feature the same vinyl inside...

The vinyl features :

- Side A
See what a fool
Ogre battle
Hangman
Jailhouse rock
Big Spender
Modern times rnr
Flick of the wrist

Side B
Now I;m Here
White Queen
Killer Queen
March of the balck wqueen
Bring back that leroy brown
Keep yourself alive
Father to son
Liar
In the lap of the gods revisited

So now I'm REALLY confused - which concert is it ?

Re: coloured vinyl, I have no clue if the Queen bootleg is originally from the 1973/4 but I have an ELO coloured vinyl LP called On the Third Day from 1973 so coloured vinyl probably was around back then -- although I suppose it could be a later re-issue.

All of these bootlegs are from the 1990s.

If Ghost's track listing is correct, then it's a false alarm.  Definitely not The Hague.

The editing of side B is a direct rip of the official Rainbow VHS.  Side A looks like a compilation of various 73-75 stuff.  Probably Golders Green, Hammersmith, or something of that ilk.

Well I did got my information from a bootleg discography... it says that side B is rianbow , but side still has tobe sorted out. But the quality would be in Queenlive standards about C-

I have to play one of those records to find out....

The setlist mentioned on the belgium website of the Rhapsody in blue vinyl wouldn;t fit on a single LP ...
Most bootleg vinyls are post 1991 , the pre 1991 are the "classics" like kimono my placelive, invite you to a night at the budokan, save me , flash alive, zoom , live in kobe... there aren't that many bootlegs on vinyl from before fred his passing. Yo can easily recognise one of those because they have better artwork...and labels at most of the time... and they aren't availble in 10 different sleeves....The money bootleg machine started after Fred died...

No need to worry, I already mailed the author of the book , where he's got the setlist from....

Thanks for doing the detective work !  Hopefully we can get some answers.

But the setlist is the standard setlist for the tour, even with Father To Son.

Thanks

There has been a rumour of this show being recorded for a long time now and apparently some footage too. One of many uncirculated and rumoured bootlegs to exist. But neither has seen the light of day unfortunately. And no, it's not in the Queen archives.


We now have this recording, but it's not the whole show.

Any chance "we" will have it too ?

Later this year I was told.

Sounds great :-)

Hannie has said she wants to make a CD for everyone who attends the convention or at least the ones that book early.
The annual Dutch convention will take place on November 3rd, and Rik, who recorded the show, will be one of the guests.
