The official "Queen: Cry Argentina" Top 100 bootleg download. Which is infact, just the sound source from the officially released "We Will Rock You" Video.
Brian slated the 5.1 Dolby surround DTX mixed DVD on his web site - as "not to his liking", yet he is happy to release this inferior, degenerated 2.0 stereo version instead?

No Rock It, Need Your Loving Tonight, Flash or The Hero, but it has Under Pressure ... Yep it is Montreal ... not Argentina - Plus it has a weird song order.
Hello Queen Productions quality control? I bet this screw up has Greg's fingerprints all over it. Surely they can't have another incompetent expert like Greg employed by Queen Productions.

John.
Personally, I think you should go the extra mile on this one. It is a real opportunity to share with us the memorablia treasures that you posess.
The items will still be yours, we only want the pictures! It would be a shame to see personalities get in the way...and hey, one day someone might throw that 'old tat' that you have in your loft into a skip! Haha!
Failing that, write your own book about Queen collectors, and their collections. I would buy it!
PS I have permission to give Greg's e mail address to you, if you do decide you want it. I think I know what the answer will be though...[/insert rolling eyes smiley here]

Thanks FD.
As I have said before, personally, I have no problems with Greg. I think people see us as some sort of heavyweight boxers - and nothing can be further from the truth.
The truth is I like things simple, and I like to see things in "black and white". Why not, for example, some simple answers to simple questions?
What I keep saying is that my personality, my character if you like, must be anally retentive, as I like perfection, (even though I know perfectionists are the worst people in the world to live with) and it is the sloppy, slip-shod fashion in which QP's opperate (and yes Greg is part of that company) which is REALLY my big hang up.
Why can't they just do something correctly for a change? It just "seems" that since Freddie's death standards have been allowed to slip from Champions League, to the Vauxhall Conference, and as RVW so correctly points out: "Hello Queen Productions quality control?..."

FD did!

Time for you to at least contemplate making your own book, John. Seriously, if QP can't get these things done to the standard, people like yourself want it, it's time for the fans to take over.
Peace,
Adam.
