Could someone re-upload this? Thanks
I'm currently curious about Liar on the 2014 release, concerning which night the performance is from.
Liar from November is an odd thing.
It has been concluded that the video release uses the performance from the 19th, but the 3-song soundboard recording shared by Sikke a couple of years ago, doesn't fully match up with the video. It's longer than the video, because it seems to have a completely different middle section.
Hey Tom, did you ever finish Hammersmith Odeon 75?

On the subject of the Rainbow stuff, I discovered something the other day - White Queen on the March show has a clear piano edit at 3:26. You don't hear the beginning of the chord, as it just suddenly cuts in.

I almost don't want to know how much editing was done on these shows.

I did not - I got about halfway through the setlist, but became pretty occupied with Uni work. I wasn't nearly as motivated as I was with the Rainbow analysis, mainly because, like I said earlier, there's much less to prove by comparing and contrasting versions of Hammersmith.

Nonetheless, I think I will finish it - I'm on semester break at the moment, so I'll get started on it. When the official release of Hammersmith comes out, if the mix is any different, I'll add that in too - at very least, the CD will give us the new mixes of Seven Seas of Rhye and See What a Fool I've Been.

Do you mean this?

Don't forget my collection of demos and outtakes: http://goo.gl/uQARhn PM me if you want any [leaked] multitrack. Ya se ven los tigres en la lluvia.
I'll also do a bit of refining on the Rainbow pdf - I'm confident in all the facts in it, but some of my conclusions are grasping at straws a bit, in hindsight. Written expression could be better here and there, too.

Could someone help me out here? :P
Was there ever any explanation behind the exclusion of "Big Spender" and "Bama Lama Loo" on this release?
