Thinking greedy or should there be more?

Don't forget that the Limited Edition should include a talking action figure, that says "SIT DOWN!"

I can't wait to see Hyde Park in proper quality. It's to my knowledge the only pro-shot and pro-recorded 70's concert that's not currently available in decent (mainly audio) quality. Also it has such a nice and interesting selection of songs. Way more excited for that than for Earls Court or Jazz concerts for example, because we have those in much better quality. Only concert that can compete is Hammy 79, because they were just so damn good.

we only have 15 minutes worth of footage from the 2nd Earl's Court show and none of the pro Jazz stuff circulating is complete, so I think the prospect of those being officially released is still pretty exciting. Up until recently I haven't been too excited about Hyde Park being released but after hearing the matrix available here that all changed. I can't wait for it to be released next year.

Concert Programme.
TBH, They should include a repro tour book in EVERY box set they do as standard. It would all value and make the extortionate costs a bit more bearable and worthwhile.
Oh, and some fuckin' balloons....

As long as it includes the 2005 concert.

A decent piece of cover art that actually featured the whole band would be a positive start!

I will be very happy if Hyde Park 1976 will be released. and I don't care what format it gets.

My tip for a "super de luxe edition"

- CD + LP : full concert
- DVD + SD Blu-ray : full concert, an hour long documentary hosted by Bob Harris, featuring his interview with Brian from 1976 (OGWT), and all the pre-concert / post-concert footage, maybe even the opening bands if they have the footage and will have their permissions
- concert programme reproduction
- ticket reproduction
- poster reproduction
- a book with all the photos they can find, including audience photos and the Japanese photos which appeared in Music Life
- a T-shirt

If the progression from Rainbow --> Hammersmith '75 is an indication, a Hyde Park box-set would look something like this:

- 2 CD (with at least one song miraculously cut out, but offering an additional 4 minutes of crowd-noise before the music starts)
- DVD + BluRay (not the one or the other, oh heavens, no)
- Deluxe book (all pages blank)
- Bag of dried grass from Hyde Park (first 1000 numbered copies also get a vial of mud)
- Bonus DVD: "Hyde Park: Audience Perspective" - the full concert (minus that one song) in audio with video of the sky over Hyde Park. Stage not visible.
- Signed Adam Lambert photograph
- Reproduction tickets, buttons and the like. Upon closer examination, these turn out to be from the Queen + AL tour.

The price will, of course, be 399 pounds (€559 / $615).

Can anyone actually confirm tho that QPL has the multitracks and complete pro shot video of Hyde Park? I find it strange that even on documentaries,only a poor quality video of Hyde Park is included.

No. Every documentary before 2011 includes excellent quality video with crap audio. All post-2011 releases have both excellent video and excellent audio.

Check out Sweet Lady from Hyde Park on the making of ANATO DVD. That looks good to me, sound isn't perfect but good enough.
