Here's my attempt to restore the original full length version of this song:
I WANT IT ALL
Written by Queen
Produced by Queen and David Richards
Running time - 5:00
2015 CMI Music
Merge sources:
1) album version (1st press UK CD) - bulk of the track
2) 'The eYe' mono instrumental mix - edited intro segment
3) 'Rockband' stem - 'yeah yeah' ad lib
4) 'The eYe' semi-instrumental mix - first part of the outro
5) Preliminary mix (Capitol 'rough mixes' cassette) - final seconds of the outo
Enjoy!

Thanks cmi! I'll open it later since I can't extract zip files in my phone.
Thank you very much for your work!
That's pretty good. But can you give me a clue where the ''Rockband' stem - 'yeah yeah' ad lib' is, as I think I must be missing it. :)

Check out the playback exactly at 4:00
Oh yes! It's the same 'yeah yeah' as in the acapella intro on the single version.
Just for a bit of fun, I've done an alternative version of this, using (with his permission) parts of cmi's mix, but replacing the 'eYe' part of the intro with a similar piece from the stems. It's not quite the same, but at least it's all in stereo now. I've also added the single version vocal intro, which isn't technically part of the original version, as it was just used for the single edit, but interesting to hear all the same. This single / album intro mix has already been done a couple of times on here, but this is a new mix, albeit the same as those older mixes.
Great! I really like your re-creation of acoustic guitar/keyboard intro segment.
Thanks. It does seem to blend better all being in stereo. :)
Oh my lord! Can you upload it in FLAC?

Its a 320kb MP3, so it shouldn't sound 'weird'!
- Lord Ficke: You should look at the instrumental demo too. You'll find that the intro there is even longer than on The Eye version. Specifically, the part with all the guitars and drums (the very last part of the intro) is twice as long as on The Eye and all other versions.
Where would I find that?
- Lord Fickle: For download, no idea except that it's on several bootleg compilations, so I suggest searching on sites like RuTracker. However, on YouTube, it is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YdWHb8zbkk .
