Queen: On Air (Pre-order now available)

hahahaahahhahahaha!

Not gonna buy this crap!

Pittrek: If it means crap in Czech, then yep!

Absolutely baffling

That big box is an insult to those it is aimed at.

They want to make us - die-hard Queen fans - pay good money for what we already have...

I'm furious.

Who's gonna listen 70 times to an interview...

I want to listen 70 times to complete LIVE shows!

Oh my god, I didn't think they were so clever to put THREE fuc*ing concerts in only one release.
Oh wait, they are all cut.

"See What A Fool I've Been becomes distorted in one channel part way through the song, a flaw allegedly on the BBC master tape (which may explain why it was omitted from later radio broadcasts)."

Taken from Bob's excellent page, queenlive.ca. Maybe that's the reason Golders Green is incomplete

I'm staggered.
Not only by getting an incomplete GG (am I right in thinking it's less than what we already have), what's the point of another 2 incomplete concerts?
MOTBQ is missing, which confirms they used the album version for broadcast: shame. I was hoping this was not the case, or at least a had had some tinkering done to it.

Whilst I'm disappointed at the packaging (I HATE digipacks and card slip sleeves with a passion) and lack of secent sized book, I am releived to see it's half the price we were all expecting it to be - but then it ought to be if half the package is interview material we will only listen to once!

They really have lost the plot.

I bet GB and GT came up with a fantastic package originally and, like everything else, those in charge whittled it down to shit.
The ONLY thing that will make this package worthwhile now is if the inbetween banter of the DJ's is intact.

So. The BIG question is.....
WHY do they think we need to buy the 2 CD set as well - what's going to be different about it?

Mixed feelings about this. 3 incomplete shows on 1 CD? What the hell. Okay, it is nice to now have all 6 complete BBC sessions in one package but we already had these in master quality provided by John S. Stuart years ago. Also, a lot of the interviews were shared here today. Nothing new we didn't already had. Hope for 2017 to be better since they have severall options. Earls Court and Houston, and hopefully the long overdue Bob Harris 1977 uncut documentary. But it starting to look like the band doesn't give any care about the fans from the early days who made the band where they are today. Ah well, at least we get Greatest Hits this year....

Anyway, See What a Fool I've Been is not the single song cut on the GG show. I see that Big Spender and Bama Lama Loo are missing as well.

Im very very unhappy...!

Terrible artwork. I honestly see no logic in making the concerts incomplete - which consumer base do they think they're appealing to by withholding stuff they could easily include? (especially since it's a bloody 6 disc set). Good news is the sessions were apparently remastered by different engineers than QPL's resident ones, so this collection might be spared from crappy audio treatment.

Only Queen would give fans THREE FUCKING CDS of interviews but one cd of "highlights" from three concerts fans have been clamoring for for years. Unbelievable. WTF are they thinking?

I am glad the full BBC sessions are finally getting a complete and official release but this limited 6 cd package is an incredible wasted opportunity.

I'm usually quite grateful for any new Queen product but this is unbelievable.

Just reading those butchered set lists makes me cringe.

It's actually as though they are going *out of their way* to piss off the hardcore fans who have invested so much time and money in the band over the years.

What happened to march of black queen??!!
