Live At The BBC - all BBC performances they have.
Absolutely no need to re-release Wembley again, or Live Aid and the guest artists will never give their permissions for their unedited performances to be included for a *complete* Tribute Concert.
I know this will never happen, but, I would rather see Hammy 79 instead of Wembley again, and take out the 77 interviews and put in the WATC video shoot concert. Now, that would be sweet.
Good effort. I think in general the thinking behind how record companies put this kind of thing together is to, if you will, hold back and not put all the eggs in one basket. Why have one huuuuuuuuge box when you can extract cash from the willing punters with a selection of boxes of different sizes over a number of years (see current effort with the singles box set).
The box you suggest is pretty big and based on other sets around would cost several hundred pounds - OK I'd buy it as would many other people, however I think the BBC stuff in its own right - even the complete sessions on their own would be worth it, embellished with perhaps some 'new' photos and interviews.
I agree that wembley and live aid are overkill, whilst I reckon there could be some mileage in re-packaging the Freddie tribute concert into something simple like the recent REM live set - 2 CD's and 1 DVD - although the Freddie concert would probably need more discs!
Anyway - keep dreaming...............currently I would just be happy with my free album club tracks from QOL which still haven't appeared!!!!
