Well, some other rare songs are on Rien's site as well as My Secret Fantasy (that mercuryparadise.com). I don't know what else do you mean by "very rare tracks" :)
Assasin, Face It Alone - no, only with the help of collectors.

do you know any collectors on this board who would trade "assassin" and "face it alone"?

Ha! Yeah there are some of have it, or claim to have it, and the songs do exist, but trading...? Meh who knows? It would be nice to hear the demo for Innuendo (Assassin) though!

This is a common issue amongst most Queen fans- trying to find these songs...or let alone trying to find someone who has them and IS actually willing to trade. I wish you the best of luck!!
I think they simply do not exist.
If you deem... fans have been sharing lots of material and unreleased rarities: what do those rarities have, more than the others, to be kept in secret?
There's no point, no satisfaction in stating you have something you can't have demonstrate you have.
And, at the moment, there's no evidence that those songs exist.
So, rationally speaking, we must reasonably deduce that they are a brillant fantasy, nothing more.

well, i think they exist, but i also don't understand why everyone is making a secret of it and why nobody wants to share them... they are just demo songs like other demo songs which are not sooo rare at all, - i can't understand how it should make anyone happier when he has it and don't shares it, - well for him it shouldn't matter at all if he's the only one owning it, or of anyone else on the world owns it too, right? ;)
All we need is a little teaser. A 10 sec sample would be enough to confirm it's existence. ;-)
A collector who has amassed a huge collection should be proud of what he or she has. Once a rare track leaks, then the collection becomes all the more obsolete. Considering the recent outpouring of previously unreleased tracks, those who possess 'Assassin' or 'Face It Alone' are still lucky because they haven't been leaked yet, and are still worth something to that person, whereas 'Self Made Man' or 'Silver Salmon' have become commonplace.
Why should a collector willingly share a song when they may have spent most of their collecting careers searching for that song? While I personally would love to hear 'Assassin' (if it exists) and 'Face It Alone' and other rare tracks, it's not the responsibility of those who do have them to share them - it's Queen Productions'. They have the songs in perfect quality, and know that the fans want the rarities, so it's only a matter of time before these songs will become available.

why shouldn't he?? why should i keep a song (and that's just a data at all) for me, when i know i could share it with many fans who all love to listen to it, too? would i think i am mightful or something better because i have a song noone else owns?? no, - i am glad that i have much rare material, what was hard to get and hard to find, but i also have no problem to share it with others.
i don't think that queen made their songs to keep them in their archives, - they produced them to share them with all their fans. and if they had more time i am sure they would have work on the demo songs, to release them too once a day.

Sorry, but that argument doesnt quite add up because it is standard practise for bands to record more songs than might appear on the next CD. The reason for that is most bands then pick the best songs to be put on the CD. The rest usually get dumped because the band wasnt happy about them or sometime they end up as throw away "B sides".

i know that, but i think when the demos are so requested by the fans the band would have done a sample album with some demos.

You might see it that way, but some of these collectors trade and sell a lot of very meaningful things to them in order to obtain what can be considered as the Holy Grail of Queen's archives. For anyone who ever had 'Mad The Swine' before 1991, I don't think anyone ever HEARD of such a song existing, so obviously they've stumbled into something exciting and new. Maybe someone spent thousands of dollars trying to obtain that relic, and they are not morally or legally obliged to share it with anyone if they don't want to. Once that relic is officially released, then people who didn't have it before don't care, and the value depreciates.
With your argument, you might as well walk into a Burger King and demand they feed you for free. "I want a Whopper!" When they tell you how much it costs, you're outraged - "I want it for free! Do you feel superior to me because you have the Whopper that I want? If I had Whoppers, you can bet I would give them out to anyone and everyone!"
People spend a large portion of their lives collecting things for their own sakes, not to entertain give out as freebies to other people. If you build a good relationship with a collector, maybe he or she will send you a rare file every now and then; but they are under no agreement or obligation to do so.
