I would love to have I'm Going Slightly Mad and Innuendo on Blu-ray.

Hammersmith '79 was a great show (I don't know what others here think of it). What's the odds of that ever being released? Would there be any reason why it couldn't be?[/QUOTE]

Hammersmith '79 is great indeed. I think they're reluctant of releasing stuff they don't have multitracks of, because then they can't fix all the "mistakes" during post-production. With that said, is it known if the Hammersmith '75 multitracks exist?

And besides, a concert video is about a band playing their songs. A videoclip is a scripted act created by some director, it doesn't enhance the music to me.

So... basically you're saying that YOUR opinion is the right one? ;)

Because there are a lot of people who don't like concert videos where the performance live performance isn't conveyed with a recording, and all the "live" elements have been re-recorded in the studio anyway. Whereas music videos are meant to be viewed at home, without the band being present.

I don't know, but we do know that they managed to fix all the 'mistakes' in it either way.

I'd say yes, as the edition shown on the BBC in the last few years has been pretty comprehensively remixed to a level beyond just treating a stereo mix.

Hammy 79 hasn't seen the light of day for the reason as given by other posters - that they lost the multitracks. This is really annoying as the stereo mix is more than adequate and sound far better than the Rio 85 mix that they have happily released a couple of times!!

=========================

Wasn't Hammy 79 released on some other compilation video? I remember NIH from Queen was together with other artist on a video. Maybe the multitracks are at that company who compiled that release....

Update: the Kampuchaconcert; Almi Cinema5 productions

Hammersmith 1975 would be a terrible choice. It's a dull concert, with a even more boring setlist. The medley at the end is probably the only highlight.

Also, the concert is already available in pretty good quality, video and audio wise.

Hyde Park 1976 would definitely be my choice. Great setlist and it was such an important event for them. The bootleg video is not a fair representation.

I think Hammy 1975 would be a good release, but Hyde Park an excellent one.

Do you see what I did there? How clever was that! :D[/QUOTE]

Even the Queen members didn't like music videos, quoting Freddie:

"When people hear a song, imagine a story, a music video ruin that imagination and force them to see a predeterminate story"

Or more or less, i'm quoting by memory.

Your opinion is pointless because real fans want to see the Innuendo videos and outtakes be released. QP doesn't target casual fans but hardcore fans who will buy anything they release. So yes to release a GVHIII is still relevant even today.

Guess I'm not a real fan then. Oh, and people buying everything aren't hardcore fans - they're sheep.
