Hammersmith '75 would be nice, but if it turned out that 1975/05/01 was completely filmed and multitracked, I would definitely rather have that.
Also, it's nice to be a part of a fandom that can even look forward to potential new official live releases. I collect Led Zeppelin and Nirvana stuff as well and as far as new live material coming out it's pretty bleak.

Hammy 1975 would be a logical decision, but I wouldn't be too interested, though. One of the their most boring concerts ever.

Have you seen this clip? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9Z9wIeEP40
At least Now I'm Here, Killer Queen and In the Lap of the Gods were filmed with a few cameras. I don't know if QP have the full recording or the multitracks. For all the fuss people do with Knebworth i think Budokan 75 is much better gig. But is unlikely QP will release it even if they have all the material in their vaults. This year the superb Rainbow show was released and is from the same tour.

Yeah, i agree, Queen have a lot of stuff in their archives, much more than other big bands from the 70s, 80s and even 90s.

Not quite true, Doga.
On the last show they filmed AT LEAST these songs :
Procession
Now I'm Here
some piano song - either Doing Alright or White Queen (*)
In The Lap Of The Gods (*)
Killer Queen
Son And Daughter
Band introduction / intro speech before Keep Yourself Alive
Keep Yourself Alive
Stone Cold Crazy
Liar
In The Lap Of The Gods ...revisited
(*) - these can actually be from a different Japan 75 show, I couldn't sync the bits properly to the audience audio from 1st May

Any correction is welcome, of course. Any news about the multitracks?

No idea unfortunately.
PS Silent clips of the songs mentioned in my previous post were shown on the 2011 exhibition but the audio was the album version of Black Queen

It would be pretty redundant - they sound much better on the Rainbow, which also has a much longer setlist. The only new thing Hammersmith has is the addition of Bo Rhap instead of In the Lap of the Gods and the first half of Brighton Rock instead of the first half of Son and Daughter.
Houston 77 would be perfect, in my opinion - it's a completely distinct period which hasn't been given any release yet. Certainly my favourite setlist they ever toured with. And of course, dat leotard.

Agreed; we now have early 70s with Rainbow release, and late 70s with Live Killers; something in between where the big hits such as WWRY/Champions came in, but still a lot of early stuff such was present along with some classic ADATR tracks, would be most welcome.

Houston 77 with a proper mix would be great, I agree!
