Freddie changes leotard during the operatic section.
Other bands fimed during that period were all the classic groups really:
The Stones
The Who
Queen
Zeppelin
Thin Lizzy
Bad Company
The Eagles
And the archive goes back to something like '73 when he first started filming - it's a truly awesome sight being amongst all those great performances....
Unfortunately, none of Pink Floyd's 1975 and 1977 tours were filmed although shoddy 8mm film of Floyd on the 1975 and 1977 tours have emerged.
Has this been confirmed? I can't believe that Floyd didn't want to document such mind blowing spectacles.
The only PF tours filmed after Pompeii in 1971 were the band's June, 1972 Brighton Dome performance which pieces appear on the making of The Dark Side of the Moon Classic Albums DVD and some were in concert videos like Set the Controls was in a concert film and Careful With That Axe from the same show appeared in a concert video. Nick Mason and David Gilmour stated regret in not filming a 1973 or 1974 or 1975 or 1977 show and there is no filmed document of that era. The band did not film shows again until the 1980 The Wall shows in New York and London. Then the 1981 shows were filmed and Roger Waters has them in his possession and is reluctant to legally release them although they would be by now had if Gilmour had it his way.
Funny how much early stuff was filmed. See Harvested 3 DVD Pink Floyd Video Anthology. Can't believe that a closed circuit vid didn't sneak it's way thru.
We're lucky that for Queen, starting 1974, every year has a filmed concert.
