Has anyone seen this before?
It's different from the standard USA Classic Queen release.
I don't think it's anything special, but just wondered if the purists out know of this promo release?

Yes it was capitol records promo or something like promo, it was released in 1989.
In 2009-2010 a serious collector was selling a promo cd with Queen ballads (not confused with a 90s bootleg). It was to be released during late 90sby parlophone.

Just another compilation of what we have already got.
Not bothered i have not got that Cd,
Time we had something fresh from Queen productions or have they all fell asleep?

If I remember correctly this album has a different mix of Under Pressure, mixing the "people on streets" background-lyric much louder, among some other minor differences.

Yes, it is better and the origins of it are unknown... I think it may actually have been put on there by accident, a very good accident

SUNNIVABITCH! had I known it was legit I would've picked it up. I'd seen that one around maybe 8+ years ago. cheap as well.. unlike the ROCKS COLLECTION promos... which rate about $20 a piece
Had no idea it was Legit. Looked fake

That is interesting. In 1992, i bought Classic Queen on holiday in Vancouver. It's a Hollywood records release and has a completely different tracklist which is:
AKOM
BO RHAP
UP
HTF
SCC
ONE YEAR OF LOVE!
RGG

That’s an irrelevant album.

That's the one I grew up with. It was pretty common in North America.
Great memories.

Not sure about this 1989 disc, but that one was on the 1992 Classic Queen release.
I wouldn't call them "minor" differences - there's a lot more guitar, and the EQ has it sounding much more crisp. To my ears it's a far better mix (apart from "that's OK" missing in the first verse).
We had a thread about it a few months back when the 24 track master came out, and pretty sure we came to the conclusion that Brian and Roger have never spoken about it. It sounds like a mix the two of them may have done around the time.
