Not everybody has either the time, inclination or technical savvy to rip the audio from the dvd ( especially those of us over a certain age...lol ) so the audio tracks from Live Aid are welcome to some people.
I also guess they chose to include the original re-mixes of WWRY and CLTCL for whatever reason and perhaps did not want to repeat the tracks twice on the same album. I have not looked but does the running order perhaps coincide with the film time line which may be another reason they chose to include the remix version of these tracks rather than the Live Aid versions ?

As the Hot Space era seems to be one of the main features in this movie, I'm little shocked maybe in not seeing maybe a tad more from that album just to see where it all went wrong.

About Live Aid... maybe the missing tracks on the soundtrack are the ones that won't appear on the movie.

but they're repeating Bohemian Rhapsody.
And WWRY will be an special movie mix.

It's a shame the new Smile recording is Doing All Right and not Earth. Still, can't wait to hear it!

It looks good! I like that they are releasing songs from the Live Aid show. I'd order one, except I don't have a CD player anymore except in my car. And my laptop doesn't have a drive for CD's either :(
But I might order it anyway. I just might. ;)

Clear tosee that this movie is just the May-Solo show whereas it should be about Freddie. More Brian SOngs, DonÄt stop me now with more Brian guitar etc etc. May is really getting on my nerves with time

Doing Alright I suppose because it's a known track - possibly to explain who Tim is to those casual listeners who might have wondered who the co-writer is. I'm also assuming May would've get any cash for Earth.
I also assume it's a remix of the Queen 1 version - I'd love to be wrong on that one.
Also - Live Aid audio = boring AF. See how much it loses without the visuals. Could be any other random live tracks which just clutters up a decent collection for me. Live the misc live stuff on the 2011 discs. Skip!

Dysan,
From what I read in the description at the Oficial website store, it’s a new Smile version. My understanding is that it’s probably something they worked on with Tim in studio when Brian posted those pictures with him there months ago.

Wasn't 'Love Of My Life - Live In Rio' on the George Michael + Queen - Somebody To Love USA cassette single?

I'm pretty sure it's a soundtrack for the masses. And being that it's a soundtrack it's nice they've redone DOING ALL RIGHT.....wouldn't make sense to see an era of their lives using archival music or SOMEONE else's music. It's a fair respect toward their beginnings.
The product is NOT for me. Though i may purchase it if it's like $9 just for the 20th century fanfare and SMILE 2017/8

Jolly good. Hopefully that will be slightly more than Tim singing on the BBC version next to Roger's verse.
