Is it time for an official Smile release?

'Is it Jacky's footage of the Marquee gigs that is on YouTube, taken from the balcony? (where you can me down at the front!) :-)'

I don't know that was on Youtube, I'd guess that must be Jacky's recording. I'd guess there is no way it woulkd be released in that quality though.

Brought back memories, I was at the front right opposite RMT's kit - I'll have to try to try to find the photo's.

Wasn't Ghost Of A Smile sourced from Gettin' Smile?

Gettin' Smile incidentally dropped my jaw when I first found it in a shop. Like something out of Raiders Of The Lost Ark.

I don't think there'd be enough of an interest tbh. There's die-hard Queen fans who know the history, Queen fans who just like Freddie, casual Queen fans who don't know much beyond Radio Ga Ga and then there's the majority. Personaly I'd love it, but it ain't happening. Btw, was "Ghost of" really, really an official release?

Smile + Adam Lambert anyone?

The Smile stuff obviously should have been on the anthology releases that were planned pre-2000, which they backed away from and chose to never release.

I could imagine there are smaller labels who would be very interested in doing a Smile releases, because the Queen link is enough to sell a decent number of copies. I can't imagine Brian or Roger would be interested in licensing the material to anyone though.....? They both seem to have a funny attitude when it comes to releasing music.

Earth makes up a part (5th section) of Nova Solis: A Suite on Morgan's album Nova Solis. Morgan comprised Morgan Fisher, Tim Staffel, Robert Sapsed (Bass) and Mo Bacon (Drums). Staffel and Fisher was credited as the songwriters for all of the songs on the album.

You must have been stood right by me!! I’ve still got my photos - must digitise them soon as I got some good ones of Roger, and particularly of Brian and also Roger Daltrey.

Record Store Day EP would be nice in a spoof Smile Japanese sleeve.

They've done Larry Lurex to death so I'd bracket this in the same... erm… kettle of worms.

Would love to see them, both of you !

I'll try to load some up over the coming weekend - if I can work out how to do it on this site.

A test post to confirm whether my photos from the marquee 92 will upload. Bear with me.....

OK Above is RMT at the kit during the Smile bit - looking back I completely missed the relevance of the three of them being on stage dammit. So next up seperate shots of Roger, Brian and Tim.
