Brian May regarding Live 70's DVDs

Is QP still searching for the lost 1975 Hammersmith footage? Is that why that hasn't been released. Or will that be packaged with Adam Lambert hammersmith shows

According to QOL admin, Hammersmith WILL be released but not this year. There are no plans to release the Adam Lambert shows and they would NEVER put the old and current shows in one package.

Well said Zebonka. A lot of the people they employ for various jobs just aren't up to the task.

Like Greg Brooks, for instance.

The DVDs they released in the last years made me pretty sad. They could be SO much better ...

But it's great to read that they're working on Rainbow too

What you don`t line in dvd released in the last year?

For me, the last year's Wembley DVD release couldn't have been any better - it was a really great release. But they could have released some 70's stuff, since 2011 was really fitting it great. Let's not lose hope for this year.

The problem is they are chasing - once something is put out, technology moves on and the bar is raised. A shame they just don't consider certain releases as definitive. And get a move on!

The Wembley DVD could have been better - a new 5.1 mix from the ground up (like Montreal) rather than the original stereo mix 'unwrapped' to 5.1, for example

On a light note, I've corrected Brian's original quote of:

"and they spend many months on each one, researching the best undiscovered sources, compiling, repairing, restoring - sound and vision..."

To:

"and they spend many months on each one, ignoring offers and advice from fans as to the best undiscovered sources, compiling, repairing, restoring, overdubbing, pitch tuning and dropping in and editing from other shows - sound and vision.."

I want to get both show

New 5.1 mixes are nice, but I'd always prefer the original stereo mixes for archival releases.

Sorry if i hurt some fellings but i think that Mr. May & company treat us like if we are idiots... or... the Queen Productions people don't have any idea of the musical market...

make an "Official Bootlegs" series... it's so simple...

only the videos on dvd (not blue ray) or cd + dvd...

but after all the re-releases i think they really don't care a shit about us.

In the past 5 years my love for the band decreased so much because as a fan i feel totally mistreated.

pd. sorry for me english, i'm from Argentina.

Mr May and Mr Deacon:
why not leave the (Mercury)QUEEN matters in other hands and you focus to your new group with Lambert (please change the band name, this is NOT Queen)
Happy to hear Brian about 70's concerts on dvd ¿When??. I have so many "pro-shots" bad quality bootlegs and everytime I see the superb quality of the Hyde Park 76 fragments in Somebody to love video I screeeeaaam!! because WHY mr May and Mr Deacon doesn't realised a top quality 70's DVD box, anniversary deluxe box or "anybox" on 40th QUEEN anniversary TO YOUR FANS???? All the bands have done it!!!
After the disgusting sound of the japanese SHMCD box (how could you do that to us?)
I really think that Mr May don't want the Houston or EarlsCourt concert because of mistakes and guitar chord faults, sound errors, etc...But WHO CARES , we don't mind about that, admit it: WE LOVE THE BAND even with sound failures we don't need overdubbings.
Please 1976,77,78 79 and 1980 concerts on Queen Production DVDs right now!! we deserve them I think
