Hey there,
Rik De Lisle was a radio moderator in Berlin for radio station RIAS 2 (radio in american sector). Now he is the chief of programme on radio station 94.3 rs2 (the follow up of RIAS). He interviewed Brain May in 1984.
Snippets of this interview were broadcast on a jubilee of the radio station many years ago. Maybe there are some pictures in the archive. Maybe you contact Mr. DeLisle via Facebook:
https://de-de.facebook.com/rik.delisle.9 or via the official homepage of the radio station: http://www.rs2.de/
regards,
W.

Also: When it comes to intelligible posts, Greg Brooks, I must say you are really bad at them. Instead of actually answering simple questions, you delve into ad hominem, like only an 8-year old would.[/QUOTE]

it's testament to the man himself - GB, that only a minute handful of people have offered any kind of help.
wonder what'd happen if he was "on fire (at the bowl)" - who'd be offering to p*** on him?

[b]gooddrills wrote: [/b] I was pleasantly surprised to see Greg come back and reply, especially after being bombarded with the usual, predictable, small minded comments. I for one find it very exciting when he does post on here and interact. I don't doubt for one minute he would have made more regular appearances if it were not for the abuse he gets. I know certain abusers 'justify' their outbursts but that just doesn't wash with me. The sense of entitlement displayed by some people on here really is laughable. Don't get me wrong, I do scratch my head at some of the things Queen Productions release or the way they release them, but that is what it is and it's certainly not Gregs doing. I don't know Greg and I don't believe he is a messenger from God who can do no wrong. At the same time I have no reason to think he's an arsehole and hurl the toys from my pram at him when he wont tell me exactly what I want to know. 90% of the posts on Queenzone are of little or no interest to me, no disrespect intended to the posters, I'm just not into favourite song polls etc. Any interaction with Greg is something I am interested in though, as a fan. He can't spill all but we have had the odd interesting snippet from time to time, a morsel here and there, and that gets the imagination going, which is exciting. I loved the Rainbow release, I wasn't overly impressed with Hammersmith, but I am looking forward to this BBC release. If it's not great I'll say so after I've heard/seen it, rather than make assumptions and pan it now just because I can. Greg, please keep in mind that there are some people who would like you to continue posting here so please continue to do so. Cheers. Will[/QUOTE]
[b]GB: Thank you Will. Glad you liked the Rainbow release. I did too. [/b]
[b]By the way...[/b]

I don't get why some are claiming that GB is trying to get others to do his job by asking fans to share whatever photos they might have of the band in a certain situation.
If he was not allowed this move, how the hell would he ever be able to obtain these items..? Maybe go look for them in a garden in Kensington?
If I had something worth sharing, I'd be very happy to do so.
And please stop being so f..... abusive. I'm sure that I'm not the only one who isn't interested in your personal opinion of this man. Love him or hate him, but please don't assume that anybody cares.

I am not sure if you are aware but all six BBC sessions were shared freely over five years ago in excellent pre-FM quality plus the guitar feedback intro to Ogre Battle which was missing from the official "At the Beeb" album. I guess it may be a source of frustration to some to learn of an official BBC sessions release when we basically already have them, it probably accounts for the generally frosty reception.
You could argue that we already have Hyde Park but the video and audio are not very good, an official release would have been a substantial upgrade whereas the BBC sessions not so much. I am looking forward to the "Freddie surprises" and seeing exactly what the new "On Air" release contains but I can't deny that I'm more than a little disappointed that it's not going to be Hyde Park - rumour had it this was the year!
Just my two cents worth, thanks again for your reply it was unexpected but much appreciated.[/QUOTE]
[b]GB: This is good and useful info, thank you very much.[/b]
[b]It is nearly always the case that serious Queen fans will invariably have a proportion of the material we put out as official product: Hammersmith 75, Rainbow 74, and when we get to them, Earls Court 77, Hammersmith 79 and BBC sessions too, etc. We do realise this, but the thing is that most products are principally aimed at the mass market; people that won't have those kinds of things.[/b]
[b]If you take 5 million of the people who bought Greatest Hits, for example, a tiny percentage of them will have sought out Queen bootlegs and unofficial recordings. Yes it's true that a lot of fans already have this material, but the masses (as it were) do not. We do try to include stuff that the fans don't have as well. I hope that will be the case with Queen On Air, for example.

You seriously wonder why people dislike you, with your rotten attitude and abusive behaviour towards people?
What a looney

Hi Greg,
You mention that possibility of Earls Court 77 and Hammersmith 79 in the future. Does that mean that you have the multi tracks of those gigs in your archives and they could be released one day? I know those gigs in particular have been rumored to have had problems with the multi tracks or the multi tracks lost. Thanks!

[/b][/QUOTE]Any serious Queen live fanatic wets his pants when thinking about official releases of Hyde Park, Earls Court (the complete second night please)and Hammy 79!
And if QPL want to make it even more appealing for us die-hards, then they can add complete audio recordings from these tours to these sets (or download possibility).

perhaps you'd do well to retract your personal insults aimed at us then? - after all - no one here has insulted you personally.
and i'm not "anywhere else" - i was referring to Moanzone [sic]
4? out of about 100 posts - hahaha - RESULT

Yes, any serious Queen fan will have a lot of those releases mentioned....just not with loads of overdubs, really uninspiring and awful cover artwork, incorrect sleeve note facts and massively over compressed and 'pushed to the limit/zero dynamics room' audio on......!
