Thank a lot for raw transfer of acetate! It's a pity there's a hole in FTS...

There is nothing I can change about this. It is a scratch on the acetate. I like to think that NS smashed it when he heared Queen got the no. 1 slot in the charts with Boh Rhap. There is a huge scratch on the acetate. All teh studio could do is push the needle forward to where it got to play correct again.... this is fate.......

however, it will not hurt to get pleasure from this concert. let's imagine that this big fail are inept technicians.

Sikke, you're a hero :-)

No, I am not,  but thanks. I am just sharing stuff with you and others... I don't need any credits just hope other poeple will upload their unreleased stuff ! So I don't want any direct thanks to my real name, just to my QZ name would be fine !

Thank you so much!

This is certainly the way to accomplish that.

Myself - I think the cut in Father To Son is there because they already had the "fake medley" concept for the video figured out (the fake medley was on the 1976 cinema version, as we now know), and they only pressed what they actually needed to the acetate, as acetates tend to be working versions at a particular time in the process.

The edit doesn't sound like a needle finding a skip. Where the song cuts back in, it is clearly a tape speeding up as if the pause button has been pressed to un-pause playback. 100% this is not the sound of a record needle being placed onto vinyl.

The vocal overdubs are still there. This may well be from the 20th, but it remains possible that this is simply a working version of the audio to be used for the video which actually contains audio of both nights.

Let's hope this sparks some good healthy discussion.

This, perhaps, is the best share I've seen on here in ages.

Thanks a bundle!

on beyond thanks!!!
