------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ GO TO PAGE 2 FOR THE CORRECT TORRENT TRACKER ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hello All, It's the raw footage as I have on file, unedited, untouched, and I thought of finally releasing it all after so many years. It covers some private footage of Freddie Mercury during the time period 1986-1990 where you will see footage of Freddie at Garden Lodge in 1986, as well as Xmas 1989 also the video shoot of I'm Going Slightly Mad has been recorded, his visit to Mary Austin in December of 1990, as well as one of his last trips to Montreux Switzerland (al though in the latter he does NOT appear apart from hearing his voice in the background)....and some footage of the flowers brought to Garden Lodge after November 24th 1991 as well as some additional footage of Freddie's Garden and the Koi fish pond... WARNING: The video quality is not always great at times, but it's how it was saved on tape (and transfered to DVD). If you think you can upgrade the quality, please do!!! I really do not care if there are Queen fans who dissapprove of this video getting out in the open. Those who want to see it , can download it, those who don't want to can ignore the download link. It is that simple. I used Utorrent to create the actual upload-torrent, and I hope it does actually work link Again, this is NOT professional HD (lol!) footage of any kind, just home made video shot on a low grade video camera ... and there are 4 video files totalling 2.39 GB. I hope you enjoy and cherish this footage,and appreciate my personal "Christmas Present for 2011" to all Queen fans around the world. TRS (a.k.a. Stefan) PS I am on a 120/10 Mbps connection, so the seeding of this 2.39 GB should go pretty fast ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ GO TO PAGE 2 FOR THE CORRECT TORRENT TRACKER ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |

zippo112 wrote: hello trs romania...im from romania as well how can i download it ? You have to install a Bitorrent client (for instance Utorrent), then click on the link in the first post I made, and it should allow you to start the download of these video files which then will be saved on your computer. Be aware that the total file size (4 video files) is 2.39 GB, therefore if you're on a slow connection it will take some time ... Anybody else managed to download this torrent?? |
inu-liger 04.12.2011 03:59 |
I don't get it. It doesn't seem to work, even when loading it through the magnet thingie. Like, it doesn't bring up either the tracker NOR the file lists automatically. Are you SURE you did this right? And I'm using uTorrent to boot |

Can someone who downloaded the torrent (option 3 !) to confirm that the torrent links to 4 folders (named Part1, Part2, Part3 Part4 , and in each folder there is an AVI file of around 700+ MB). If so, the torrent should be perfectly OK. If for some reason the torrent only shows one folder or one AVI file. let me know! |
gizmo 04.12.2011 06:50 |
Great Present ....THANK YOU for uploading !!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
TRS-Romania 04.12.2011 06:54 |
This should be a fully working standard torrent file (I removed the old one where I seeded already 18GB) There should be 4 folders (part1, part 2, part 3, part4) each holding one AVI file of around 700 MB |
TRS-Romania 04.12.2011 07:02 |
@pittrek, Does it work now? And does it show the 4 folders (with the 4 AVI files?) |

abercjusz1 wrote: Thank you for this super rare footage :) You're welcome. Consider it my present for Queens 40th anniversary! Again, I need to stress that this really VGA quality, and sometimes even very grainy, as the footage was shot at night (Christmas 1989) without too much light. But it does give you some insight into the life of Freddie Mercury and there are some lovely snippets which we can all cherish. If someone can improve the quality of the footage, or to re-do the video files into one file, that would be appriciated. The 4 AVI files I have were taken directly from a Betamax tape (where the original video tapes were transfered to). Meanwhile below the screenshot from my Utorrent program showing that it is seeding to many users already. http://i39.tinypic.com/ev9dgn.jpg |

Until now I've seeded over 44 GB, and in the next couple of days I'm going to stop seeding assuming that other people will continue to seed it or share it on the Queen hub. By the way, feel free to "improve" the video quality (as in some areas it's pretty grainy) and as I mentioned before, this is a straight copy of the "original tapes" I have, and I have done no effort in editing it, or improving the video quality as there must be other people who can do a far better job than I can. |

By the way, I would like to clarify that these tapes were GIVEN to me, not sold, by the late Jim Hutton back in 2001-2002. Some of the footage had already been shown in official documentaries, but the majority of the footage remained unseen by the public at large. In the last couple of years I upload some small snippets to Youtube (with consent of Jim Hutton), al though one could argue if he had the rights to the footage, he did have the "master tapes". I am not going to get into the "legal side" of this, and I think the Garden Lodge Tapes give an innoicent but interesting view into Freddie's life and his happy times at the house and I felt it was time to share it all at once. I already noticed that some of the footage is now on Youtube, and perhaps there will be more initiatives to make a nice edit of the footage (or to improve the video quality). |

No, I definately don't think so. If there's a private video where you sit in the bath tub and your gay friend rubbers your back then there's a point reached where you want to protect your privacy. That's something that should not be made public no matter if these tapes come from Jim or whoever made them available. Freddie was very careful to protect his privacy and people who were close to him. Freddie never talked about his relationships or partners except from Mary. I think it's not people's right to step that deep into someone's private life. And btw Freddie made a lot of sarcastic statements and most important he said to Jim Beach sth like whatever you do don't make me boring. If you really think that Freddie didn't care about these things after this death then I think you did not understand who Freddie was! |

I've got to agree - this footage makes for pretty uncomfortable viewing IMVHO. I know I have the choice of whether to or not, but it really didn't ought to be in the public domain like this. We all know how private an individual Freddie was, especially towards the end of his life and this kind of thing just completely breaks that apart and gives people who weren't invited or ever likely to be, a key to the door. Makes me wonder under what guise did Jim give this material away; was it under the provisio that whomsoever received it wouldn't copy it or trade it? Was it SOLD by Jim to raise funds? Was Jim bothered at all where it may end up? |
