Queen-Now I'm Here (Hammersmith Odeon Afternoon Soundcheck) (AUDIO)

Here you go

Thanks!

They're gonna use John's mic for Bob Harris introduction :-)

Surely this isn't a recording from the vinyl... or is it like that on vinyl? Looks like someone pointed their phone microphone to the speakers and recorded it.

Thank you.

it doesn't sound like this on the vinyl, this is recorded from the speakers, such a pity

thanks anyway

It is official. It is less than one month old. Even a recording from speakers really should not be on Queenzone.

Then again, it might convince some to buy the super de duper box set.

If they'd put a lot more of the soundcheck into the box (or all of it), then a hell of a lot of people would be buying it. I'd be buying it NOW instead of waiting for a price drop if it had the soundcheck included.

Apparantly Roger and Brian only allowed one track from the soundcheck to be used because they didn't want to bore people.
The only people who will buy the box sets are fans. Joe public ain't gonna spend £85+.

Clueless. They're absolutely f****ng clueless.

Too bad they only released one song from the soundcheck and only on vinyl.

Seriously - if guys like Brian's Wig and and I aren't buying the box set, who is !?

I am such an idiot :-) Haven't got it yet though since it's not available in the shop where I usually buy music...

I'm in brians' side. If it included the whole soundcheck, I would be searching a store to buy it.

I've listened two songs from the soundcheck:

Now I'm Here, which has some weird phrasing, but it's an great version.
And a little snippet of Bo Rhap present in the documentary, which sounds really interesting.

I don't know why they didn't included the soundcheck in full -_-

At the end I've decided to buy the box. I found a little offer on the amazon.it. Got it for 112€ instead of 140€ from queenonline store

I certainly won't buy it for that reason, and I consider myself a serious collector.
The fact a single track from a soundcheck is offered only as part of an overpriced box set speaks volumes to me.
The motivation is pure greed, nothing more.
It should have been offered as part or the cd, and or dvd/blu-ray bonus material.
I for one will download the sound check in flac at the earliest opportunity without the slightest pang of guilt.

"I for one will download the sound check in flac at the earliest opportunity without the slightest pang of guilt."

So where is their incentive? Queen fans will steal what they can because they are not satisfied by the new release. They are still waiting for the none existent anthologies. Queen fans will complain about everything they release so why should they release anything? If I was Brian May I would stack all the audio and video tapes and put a match to it all. Enjoy collecting all your badly recorded mono tapes from tapes 30 years ago.
