Here I am sharing something I don't know if is common, but is the 1982 version from We Will Rock You (Montreal 1981) that I have.
NTSC and proper 4:3.
I believe is a LD transfer. Very good image - sharp and vivid colors - and a weird but very clear audio mix: 2.0 and fake 5.1.
Hope you all enjoy!
Size: 3,79GB
Thanks! Was gonna share a VHS version that I have but it looks like you've beaten me to that xD

Hmm, now I remembered you had shared that KYA from the VHS. PAL, right?
unfortunately this is NTSC, but nothing to complain about the quality. :)

I actually uploaded the full VHS here: [url=http://www.queenzone.com/forums/1456801/we-will-rock-you-1992-vhs.aspx]http://www.queenzone.com/forums/1456801/we-will-rock-you-1992-vhs.aspx[/url]
I've got to say, the screenshots look great. Would it be alright if I use this possibly for a future project? :)
It's gonna be a full uncut edit of both concerts (24/25) using the best available sources and inserting video where possible! :)

Now that I've downloaded it, it includes Jailhouse Rock and the only Laserdisc copy to include this song was this one, released in the US in 1997: [url=https://www.discogs.com/Queen-We-Will-Rock-You-Commemorative-Release/release/5659471]https://www.discogs.com/Queen-We-Will-Rock-You-Commemorative-Release/release/5659471[/url]
This is the 90-minute version available on the 2001 DVD, so it's basically that DVD only without the Paul Swimmer commentary and lower picture quality as it wasn't remastered at the time. I of course could be wrong but this is what it looks like :P
But thanks for this great share anyway! :)

The 2001 DVD version is 16:9
while the LD versions are 4:3.

... and the 1997 official DVD is 4:3 (as I already mentioned in my last post) and a much more likely source for jjbluecaps' share. Probably ripped with something like DVD shrink, which would explain the lack of menu. The offical '97 NTSC DVD release had 5.1 and 2.0 audio tracks, as per jjbluecaps' share.

Ah, that makes more sense! Thanks Kurgan!

It's also likely the official 4:3 DVD has a higher video bitrate than jjbluecaps' share.
Although listed as Region 1, I seem to recall it was actually region free.
However, you will not better the Blu-ray edition, especially if you have a player and TV that produces true 24p and is set up correctly.

Actually this is a DVD released here in Brazil in the early 00's, which was ripped from that "We Will Rock You" DVD.
I took off the menu because it was in portuguese and well, make no sense to leave it, since the only thing important here is the concert.
You can even activate portuguese subtitles on this DVD.
