Argentina'81 video - 2002 TV rebroadcast

Hi everyone,
Now it's time for the raw transfer of "Queen in Argentina '81" 2001 (or 2002) TV Special featuring several tracks from the legendary Buenos Aires March 1st 1981 show.

Here's a DVD:

Thank you very much!

OH MY FUCKING ANTIDEN! THANK YOU SO MUCHO! (I'll clean the room for it!) @_@

many thanks for posting this. While not as sharp as the QTV version, this one seems to have better black levels and its nice to not have that pesky QTV logo in the corner. I'm not asking for Rare Live quality but you'd think a rebroadcast in 2001 would have warranted some kind of professional mastering to a then 20 year old set of VHS tapes.

Thanks :)

interesting, thanks.

The exact broadcast date was 10th November 2002.

I was present at the TV station studios when the host was recording his parts.

Yes, it was 2002, Channel 9, Argentina, thanks for this one antiden!

At that time there wasn't good enough machinery (especially in a poor channel like 9) to remaster very old U-matic tapes (not even VHS or Beta which it was introduced in the market in 1983)

So... that's that.

Thanks a lot for this antiden. I just wish they could release a video box-set of their 81 South American tour. The band sounded great!
Some of the best Freddie Mercury live performances ... EVER!

Antiden, you have a great Queen collection, and i really appreciate all the stuff that you have been sharing. This is great stuff!

Thanks again.

I hope MEGA.CO.NZ can stand the heat of your shares. :)

It's just me, or at least the third .vob file (the only one until now that I managed to download) have some jumps and a repeated part and deleted the interview part (in great quality)?

Thanks a lot Antiden. You made my day! :)

You have to demux and remux the whole thing to work properly.

Thank you.
