According to GB's book, it was 31st March 1974 where the power cut occurred, and the 2nd night in 20th November that was filmed (not the first) and that November filmed show went on without equipment failures (though it also says this is the first time Queen are filmed live, ahem)
So this begs the question , was it actually 31/3/1974 footage that was recently discovered at Trident or had GB's book got the 2 shows the wrong way around? GT?

This is all corrected in the new edition of the book.
So would 2-inch tape make it suitable for Blu Ray release? (sorry if this has be asked). I assume since it was shown in cinema it would be a 'yes'?
Someone wrote (forgive me) about mono and stero mixes eariler. I work and practe in film, it was easier to release video in mono as it was cheaper than stereo and quad. However Live at Rainbow is mono (whether it was relased in stereo or whatever in the cinemas) is because its from a vhs tape and vhs tapes cannot do stereo. They can do Duophonic which is fake stereo.
In requards to overdubbs. Unless you have full raw bootlegs from both nights, you can never be 100% sure.
Besides if QP were to release Rainbow (overdubbed or not) fairplair to them however, their were much better gigs in the SHA tour (i.e Final Japan 75).

It would work better for DVD release 2" tape is too degraded. The 35 (or 32)mm would work better for BD release

I´m not sure if "japan 75" has the quality (The concert Was GREAT but the recordings are from extranges angles) for a officialy release...
Anyway I really hope they release the japan 75 gig whatever the quality is,cause it´s a true jewel.

I believe you're mistaken, VHS can certainly record and reproduce true linear stereo just as easily as audio cassettes do.
