Thanks CMI! thanks
Cool !! thanks CMI !!
After downloading and taking a look I had a few quick questions....
a. I could be wrong but I thought the Royal Orb set was released in 2011, same as the reissues...I looked at Amazon and that stated it was released Dec 5, 2011. Now I know Amazon often mistakes their dates as well which is why I bring the question here...
b. I see that on the main album for both Leaving Home and Don't Stop Me Now you used the two sources but no details as to why - was it to fix something, or to expand on something?
c. What is the reasoning behind expanding the single edits? I've seen you do that a few time where you take a single edit but give it a full ending, etc. Doesn't that basically defeat the purpose?
Either way this has been a grand undertaking so far and I'm loving reexploring these albums in superior ways. You have a great knack at taking the best sounding versions!

^ Thanks for your post!
a. Yes, indeed. My fault from the previous release. Corrected.
b. In both songs longest endings were restored and there was a small glitch (lost samples) in main source of 'Don't Stop Me Now'. Corrected.
c. I restore edits which don't work for my taste. I think the fade out of 'Fat Bottomed Girls' ruins the whole song. The same reason for 'You Don't Fool Me' (single edit) from 'Made In Heaven'.

a. Excellent!
b. Cool. Figured it was something similar - but figured it was easier to ask than try to figure out exactly what was going down.
c. Fair enough - you're project, you're desired result :D

CMI - excellent job, as always !
I especially love the extra ad libs from Freddie in at the end of Fat Bottomed Girls from the 1991 remix. Nice that those are in there.
Just one question from me - why does the "instrumental" Fat Bottomed Girls still have the vocals at the beginning and in the choruses? That would make it a karaoke version. Bicycle Race is an instrumental, and the same thing is possible with the Rock Band stems. Would you consider doing that !?
I've attached an approximation of it, but my sources are lossy.

^ Bob, thanks for your questions.
Yes there was a consideration to use true intrumental version of 'Fat Bottomed Girls' mixed from stems but the reason is the quality of available 'Guitar Hero' stems. It's 'very' lossy as I can call it. There was an attempt but I discarded it in the end.
I think I'll make another approach to mix true instrumental version in the future... Probably it will be a mixture of three sources to create the most complete instrumental version.

Thanks, CMI! Looking forward to hear your work :-)
