There can't be any other source for this show other than video feed.

:-)

So then who went out of their way to create an extra generation by dubbing the video to a reel tape?

It's unlikely to be another source since it is the exact same mix as the video feed. I remain curious.

Either way, thanks for the share Mark.

Thank You

Oh, this guy ...

I hope it didn't cost you too much.

I still hear digital flaws galore in the sound. It's nothing but the existing versions dubbed to reel tapes.

I'm sure he invested some money to have the dubbing done, but he sure made good money on these sales. There is little doubt these were very recently dubbed, likely in someone's basement.

You sure It's the same guy? I checked this guys history before purchase, and the only other tape he sold was to Peter.
The rest of his stuff is all official Queen merchandise, rare-ish Queen vinyl etc. This guy is UK based.

There was another guy based in USA selling Queen Reel to Reels two weeks ago on ebay,  he was well dodgy, I retracted a bid on a 80 minute reel of  Queen live 1976, I noticed he sold the exact same reel 6 weeks previous, he had about five Queen Reels some U2, Geneses, etc.

Same seller same Item.

Did any of you buy tapes from the other guy? He sold multiple reels from 1975, 76, 77, 81, 86.

Just curious about the quality.

I'm listening to it right now and I have a feeling it sounds better than I remember

Hey, the reels look VERY familiar :-)
Did we buy from the same eBay seller ? :-)
Could you compare it please to my transfer of Sikke's tape ?

did you buy all the reels from the UK based seller?
Saw them too, but they were very expensive if I remember correctly.

Cost me £40, was surprised that won it tbh, compared to other sales for reels.

If it was a Breakdown or Tarantura boot or one of the other labels it would have been £50-£80 for the same recording.

Regardless of it's issues, this is the best version shared yet, worth it in my opinion.
