Just received my copy of 'Queen in 3D'.....one small picture and accompanying text jumped out at me;
A picture of Freddie at the mixing desk with John Etchells whilst mixing 'Live Killers' shows a video cameraman filming them. Brian states that the footage filmed is safely in their archive.
Did we know this exists??

Yeah this is great isn't it?
He also mentions, doesn't he, that Paris was multitracked and FILMED. OK we already knew that BUT was it a multiple camera shoot? Not just the one camera we have...
Anyhoo... really nice book!! Loads of unseen photos :-)

There was a clip from Paris '79 filmed from a different angle if I remember correctly.

Yeah, there were plenty of different angles on "The Champions" TV special. :)

Here's one more clip from that time of recording:
This is taken from the 1979 USA TV special "The Champions".

Are we sure that footage is of them mixing Live Killers, and not maybe recording a track like Coming Soon or Sail Away Sweet Sister?

Rhys Thomas told me about 5 years ago that this footage is indeed from Mountain Studios working on the Live Killers album.

Some bits in the Freddie Mercury birthday video, and i think it's also on Days Of Our Lifes doc, but correct me if i'm wrong.

Whilst Brian's memory is sometimes suspect, he does specifically say for this it is Live Killers. Did Etchells work on 'The Game'?

If this is the Live Killers sessions that were filmed (or even The Game sessions) who would have come and filmed it?
