This IS Green from the Wreckage and I believe it's only the first verse :P
Thanx alot for the THANK YOU messages btw :P We (me an the_hero atleast) really like people like you who take the time to thank us for releasing stuff, although it's almost all mp3 stuff.
(Correct me if I'm wrong about the song)

NO, THIS IS NOT GREEN. I THINK THIS IS SOME OTHER SONG. CHECK OUT THIS INFO FROM RIEN'S SITE "MERCURY PARADISE": Wreckage make several attempts at "Green", before switching to another song, obviously a Freddie-composed number, which is difficult to identify (but could be "Blag-A-Blues") from its lyrics because the band were interrupted before they reached the chorus.
"Whoever we were sharing the flat with came in and complained that it was one o'clock in the morning," remembers Richard Thompson. "So Freddie stopped singing." And there ended the last and certainly most important pre-Queen recording. One well-heeled collector will have the chance to hear the tape for himself when it comes up for auction at Christie's on 6th June.
LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!
B.T.W. IF IT'S POSSIBLE SOMEONE COULD UPLOAD MONTREAL 78 AS RAPID-SHARE FILES? THANKS

Sorry, but this indeed IS one of the attempts at GREEN!
Well it sure sounds like a Wreckage rehearsal, while it has the same "hand on knees-clapping" as in Green. But the lyrics and melody are different as far as I can hear. It starts with "there's a place I have been and a face I have seen...etc" and that's not in Green.
Correct me if I'm wrong, of course.
This must be another demo and I might think this sounds better than the Green recording.
To Armando Martinez: can you please contact me through my site? On Queenzone I cannot see your e-mail address.

There is no "Green" Take 4. There never was. There is one long track called "Green" which lasts about 10 minutes. The bits we hear are the bits between conversation.
I wish people would stop making things up so that they sound more authoritive than they really are.

Well - actually it is Green (see above), and I also think you are nine years out of date. Queen Productions bought this tape in 1996, and I can not see them putting it up for auction.

sorry John wasnt aware of it being a 10 minute take
Thanks for helping us out, John.
But it still sounds a bit different from Green, but if that was 10 minutes it could be the song.
Anyway.. I think this demo sounds better than the "Green" we have.
