Doesn't mean that i'm excited about it. :')
Only letting you moaners know what is new.
Unofficial or pirated release? Anyway I just saw these being sold in Walmart.
Was interesting on his chat thing that Tim S. said Queen owned the Smile stuff now. It's probably about time they put them out to stop this kind of release. Lazy bootlegging to include Mad The Swine and the Larry Lurex material.
Strange how in the last few years this kind of release has crept into normal shops. I assume it's because these companies actually pay rights to the artists so the artists just sit back and have the cash roll in with no other costs to them. But still, you'd think they'd want to take some pride in the material and package it nicely (and of course charge us 3x the amount)
Dyson, it's not as simple as "just paying the band" because Queen are on major record labels in the world. They have a contract to release Queen material and won't just ignore some smaller company moving in on their rights.
They will when it's this sort of crap they can't be arsed to release themselves.
Funny, I found this new at a Sunrise Records store. (a sort of chain of record stores in Canada) I wonder what other bootlegs I'll find if I dig around enough.
Bowie and REM have loads of these. To be honest, they're not at all bad so worth the money if you pick a few up.
