Well, he did tell us which shows were filmed, and there is not a single show that was properly recorded (16 tracks or more) that wasn't filmed - these two things were done hand in hand. So there really should be no surprises.

Indeed it is logical why would they multi track a live show when they didn't have the plans to make a live album ? Why would they spent the extra bucks on aiming mikes, a mobile recording studio , extra crew etc. when there are no plans with the recording.
Shame some multitracks are lost (79) or not in good condition (77)....

Very sad to read that. Can i ask you a question? What about Earl's Court and Houston? Houston wasn't recorded by the band but by the vunue, and Earl's Court was never intended to be released so...

There are some audience recordings listed at http://www.queenconcerts.com which have never been shared on QZ as far as I'm aware.
It's one of those things, they are shared amongst a small circle with a view to trade them.
Sooner or later we get to hear them I suppose, although it's generally MUCH later.

I vaguely remember that going on when it first happened.....just read up about all that.........good lord what a waste...........only mp3s and wma's?? They could have done that much much better.......something like this:

Earls Court was definitely multi-tracked. In fact, they did a brand new mix of the first night that was available to listen to at the Stormtroopers in Stilettos exhibition in 2011.
It's beyond me why this hasn't been officially released or even put up as an iTunes download if they already did the work.

Well, we know for sure there's a soundboard recording of Sun City 19-10-1984 :-)
We know the second part exists so I'm just hoping that one finds its way onto the internet...
Anything else would be fantastic but there's no use in speculating about things we don't know. Anyone in the know is welcomed to share any relevant information though haha.

Kalamazoo 1977
The Christmas Concert 1977 (LA?)
Syracuse 1977
These exist, but haven't seen the light of day (yet).

We agree Queen have a lot of soundboards in their archives, but the interesting here is know how many multitracked shows they have.

it's a pity Bri and Rog are such perfectionists concerning their archive material. So what if the sound isn't up to snuff just release it for the hardcore, as long as it's listenable it's ok(off course the better the sound the greater the pleasure!)

Don't read this the wrong way, but what will happen if the people concerned with the queen archives are all dead all dead and gone??
