This is from pittrek's youTube channel. Does anybody know where does this video come from? There are some ducth subtitles, but I can't understand what's the source.

Any idea?
Thanks.

Thank you but I meant the source of the video (documentary, tv show...). Anyway, thanks again for the interest ;-)

Thanks :-) No idea (re: doc/TV show) but the footage is interesting - I could be wrong but it looks too short to be part of a doc - maybe a slot in some Dutch TV programme or Dutch news slot? Can anyone identify the presenter?
This footage is usually "distributed" together with the report about the January concerts, but of course this was shot much later.
Brian talks about how they received a platinum disc in the Netherlands for CLTCL, is anybody of you guys able to find the date for this? The footage might be taken from some "afterparty" after they received the award

Pittrek, do you still have that video in its "pre-youtube" version? Or anything else about that event?

The interview was done by Lex Harding, from Veronica's Countdown. He is an huge Queen fan. This interview was broadcast semi live and repeated many times. Veronica tv and radio station were in those days very pro Queen! They even had some footage of the Odeon Show, back in 1975. Which is very unique as no any other broadcast with music programs didn't had that acces for such footage, not even a snippet.

Tom, do you have any footage related to this?

Pfff Depex. no I'm afraid not, sorry, I don't have any the footage from The Odeon, that was 1975, in that year, In those days we did not own a videorecorder. But maybe it is worth while to adress Veronica, which is owned by the SBS GROUP.

It absolutely is.

Pretty sure it was in October 1979.

The golden record presentation is from the Crazy Hat party in London at the Legends Club on dec 13th 1979 after their concert at the Lyceum Ballroom. The interview also is from the same date : the interveiw with Brian May with the rabbit on his hat....hence Crazy Hat party ;-)



Thanks for the exact date !
