New Bootleg Tree?

Ok Montreal is full of scratches, I've listened as far as Get Down Make love and I can take no more!

Somebody t love at Sao Paulo is buggered too.

Ok I got as foar as Get down make love on Sao Paulo and theres screeches on STL, IILWMC GDML.

Here is a web site I created with three corrected songs so far ... (copy the whole link into your browser)

I am allowed 25 MB for each user name for file storage. My primary user name has 5 MB left.

Fortunately I can have 6 more users of 25 MB each. I have not done this yet, but it should work ... I hope to try it tomorrow.

Montreal is ok after Now I'm Here (7 buggered songs). I still have yet to listen completely through Sao Paulo (and its unfortunate electroshock treatment sound effects) to find out which songs are screwed up.

I apologize again for the problems. I had no idea that my old CD reader/writer was a problem.

I set up two more internet accounts (25 MB each)with my ISP.

I have to wait up to 24 hours to have my new accounts approved and to allot the two 25 MB slots to me.

Is it me or is most of Sao Paolo "scratched"?

Haven't listened to much else, but what I have has been okay.

I am not sure what is scratched in Sao Paulo as I have not had the chance to listen to it all the way through. The concert came from two disks. I am hoping that only the first original disk (before Love of my Life) had scratches.

As I indicated earlier, I am setting up 25 MB web pages containing the corrected songs. Using a downloadable product like NetVampire, getting the corrected files could be an overnight project while one is sleeping.

Again, I apologize for the errors.

Please continue to provide me with feedback regarding these disks.

I just listened to Sao Paulo, and all but 5 songs are scratched (01 Opening through 04 Play the Game plus 14 Love of My Life).

Can I just say Mike that I actually don't care about the "broken" bits on the CDs you sent out. I have been a Queen fan for many many years now, but have never had the money or the technology to amass much of a live collection. I was completely gobsmacked to discover that there were other Queen fans who loved the music so much that they wanted to share it - essentially for free. And although I only have the stuff you shared, and some very dodgy sound quality cassette tapes, it is my intention to share to others one day - again for free. The only thing is most of the people here at the moment have been collecting for much longer and don't need the stuff I have!

So thankyou for sharing what you have, I can get Sao Paolo another time, for now I'll enjoy what I have.

So don't feel bad (maybe you don't anyway!)

Love and good sharing vibes

Hi everybody, I agree with what Niki says, I have been collecting Queen bootlegs over the years, swaping and even paying for them from other fans around the world (Moscow, Argentina, Brazil, USA, England, etc...), sometimes a little expensive, but this time with what Bullwinkle have just started is great for all the fans that are still looking for more Queen material. Thanks for that, and maybe we can all together fix those scratches....

Nicki,I think that every fan has something strange and differente to offer to the rest of us. Who knows, probably each one of us can list their material so everybody can look at it and perhaps start some other kind of tree....

Thanks again and see you!!!

The following links (copy the whole of each link into your browser - clicking on the link does not work) have corrected songs without screeches (one song from Hammersmith '75 and seven songs from Montreal '78). These corrected songs will complete the Hammersmith '75 and Montreal '78 concerts and make them listenable.

I am planning to correct 20 songs from Sao Paulo if I have enough web space (after any additional screechy songs are found, corrected, and placed on these web pages).

Bob the Shrek, Nickipee, and NoOne But Me:

Thanks for your kind words and understanding.

I am bothered by these mistakes (I wanted this tree to run smoothly).

Hopefully, most people will eventually be happy with the tree (and any corrected downloaded songs), and will feel the tree was worth the unfortunate inconveniences.

Just keep in mind, it's not a bootleg tree without some sort of foul up. I'm sure they all appreciate your effort, Bull.

Thanks Zeni

Dogmega is now signed up for the tree.
