Hey, this might be a weird question, but does anybody of you guys (or gals) still have the OLD transfer of Houston? You know which one I mean, the green-shifted with lines running through it. The bad analogue NTSC->PAL transfer.
I had my copy, but I threw it out as soon as a certain Queenzoner decided to leak the better NTSC->PAL transfer which has correct colours.
The thing is that some of the old audio bootlegs have a few seconds of Freddie's "pipe" which are NOT on the better copy, and I actually thought that it's something which doesn't even belong there, until we have seen a few weeks ago in the documentary, it DOES belong there, and the documentary was the first time we have seen a bit of the missing footage.
I wanted to check if anything interesting is on the old transfer, when I realized I probably threw it away. Does anybody still have it?

Yeah, I've been looking for it as well! I believe you're looking for a copy like this:
Also, speaking about the documentary, I just recently noticed that in the 'Queen Forever In Nederland' documentary, there is footage of the whistleblowing... Check it out! :)
Unfortunately, there was a voiceover so there's no accompanying audio, but it's 100% belongs before the intro to White Man! :)

That's the documentary done by Sikke vdV, right? I haven't seen it in years, I have to check it out. And yes, that's the "green" version
