Hi,
I found two videos of Queen's support band Steve hillage from Hyde Park '76 on youtube: link link same video as the first one, but in different quality)

Since I can't connect to YouTube from the office, I just want to ask if it's pro-shot or audience footage and if it looks like it's shot by the same cameras as the Queen gig

It is pro-shot, but it's hard to say whether it was filmed with the same cameras as Queen gig... but i think it was.
Great, I've always hoped that the WHOLE DAY was professionally filmed.
Also the good news is that the Steve Hillage band concert is available as a SOUNDBOARD recording, so "MAYBE" there COULD be a Queen soundboard recording (don't hit me)

It is Hyde Park and the BBC shot it for the Old Grey Whistle Test. Bob Harris was the compere for the day. Capital Radio were doing live radio interviews backstage on the day too. What doesn't come across is that the audience on the day was VAST, going back a hell of a way and at this stage of the day, everyone was sitting down - in fact right up until Queen came on - after that about 90% of the audience couldn't see the stage, hence bottles flying overhead to try to get those at the front to sit down (impossible).... So all you got was the smell of dry ice and the sound - a very loud and heavy (old) setlist of songs. I waited years to see what I'd missed visually...
