Well, if you want the full version just listen to it on "Sheer Heart Attack". I love Queen medley`s - there were very original and fascinating, for example I think "Bohemian Rhapsody" is better as a part of a medley, than when they play it back from the tape. It`s a concert - playback suxx!

the choir thing is pointless - all of queen's songs included harmonies of varying depth - the fact that they went awol (due to live limitations) on stage - did not detract from them any - in fact the raw edge of the live arrangement and the adaptation required to get some of these multy-layered intricate masterpieces to the stage added new interest and life to the compositions.....
one final point for "Live Killer" did you EVER actually see them live? because you cannot make a comparison to what you see/hear on vhs/dvd/live cd to actually being there - and even moreso when the cd in question is live killers- this was an abomination of a live album - stripping 24 songs from over 50 live shows...and then "tarting it up" with countless studio overdubs

Queen never cared about their image? There's bullocks if I've ever seen it.

As for the medley issue, I do like them. Yes, you lose out on part of a song, but at least you get more songs as a whole. Plus, they offer chances to segue from one song into another using unique musical hooks.

The transition between songs is what its all about. The piano barrages by Freddie is what makes it fun.

I think you should get a Works concert, because they don't include TiU in the medley, and they do a couple minutes or so of Liar. I recommend Tokyo 5-9-85 (not the official Tokyo show), if you can track it down. This would be a great choice for a torrent, if it hasn't been done yet. This show would hopefully silence at least some the anti-Works tour rhetoric we hear so often here.
