(Potentially) Major news!

"How about Hammersmith'79- don't they have the entire thing...?"

I think the Quality is not good enough to release it with DTS sound.

I reckon that after Milton Keynes and GVH3, they'll do a 2-disc compilation of Queen live throughout the years. That way they don't have to worry about certain songs at gigs that wern't recorded properly, and pick out the good bits.

"I think the Quality is not good enough to release it with DTS sound. "

How about... not giving a f**k about DTS and release it in stereo...? I know it's daydreaming, but....c'mon- it's bloody music that it's the most important thing, PERFORMANCE- and that's the best I know... I would love it even in bloody mono...

a live compilation is boring, I bought Rare Live, and only watched it once.

I rather see a complete less quality dvd then a dvd with 30 or so songs from different concerts all through the years

A butchered live compilation like Cyberbarn or Rare Live is pure unadulterated evil.

A live compilation of COMPLETE songs with each song only from ONE concert (no alternating between concerts within a song) like the Opera Omina bootleg would be a good idea IMHO if whole concerts cannot be released.

I remember trying to find Opera Omnia for that very reason. Full live versions of almost every track ever performed. Never did get it.
So, it would be even greater an idea to transform that into the visual/audio concept of a live compilation. But done right, of course. It's the next best thing to a full concert release.

A DVD collection with a selection from various concerts from the 70s would be a good compromise between the artists' wishes to release a perfect product and the fans' wishes to get high quality video footage from the very popular shows from the 70s. Of course, it would not make any sense to choose the "usual suspects" such as WWRY, WATC etc..

I agree Your Valentine. Rare Live was an early attempt at this, but it was shite. Something ala Led Zep's DVD collection would be cool!

Yaaayy!!!

I've been saying this since the Zeppelin DVDs were released :)

I still have an article where they discussed the details of how the LedZep set was put together. It was an incredulous process. Could be something for the boxsets and a sole release.

Nice idea.

Peace,

Great idea, Adam (Opera Omnia). That would be wonderful, but I'm affraid it'd be very difficult to put it all together.

Cheers,

Ogre-

I bet they could brighten up Earl's Court (like they did with WWRY) if they tried....

Or they could do a DVD with half of one concert and half of another....

Good news from queenonline :

"Further to online reports surrounding the latest Queen DVD release, QOL can officially confirm that Queen are currently in production on various DVD projects including the 1982 Milton Keynes concert. The final decision on what will be released for this Christmas 2004 will be made over the next month"

Maybe a live in the 70s disk and a live in the eighties disk?
