Is there any hope that some day we will see Seven seas of Rhye, See what a fol I've been, God save the Queen from Hammersmith Odeon 1975? In 2009 it seems to me, Brian was looking for fans who attended this show and probably filmed these three set. |

Im sure i seen these. or heard them. |
| brENsKi 26.09.2012 11:22 |
you've almost definitely heard them i remember when i first got to hear the whole of that gig - the missing tracks were in mono - don't know why and it was an old basf c90 audio tape the feeling of hearing those tracks and the complete set was - and still is something to behold - queen at their very peak |

I have a friend who has videos of the three songs which were not filmed by BBC originally. |

My friend is better than your friend because he is John Deacon and he is sitting next to me right now looking at your pathetic attempt to get a bite. xx |
| Hangman_96 26.09.2012 15:27 |
I couldn't care less. |

Some people say one camera remained but theres nothing to back this up besides rumors. I also highly doubt they will find any sort of audience video from the show. Even if it was filmed by an audience member what are the odds that it is from the encore (it would most likely be fragmentory), that they will find it, or that it even has surved for almost 40 years? |

I'd say Earls Court 77 would be Queen's live peak. The last shows before the old songs from Queen II and Sheer Heart Attack started leaving the setlist. The first night had its flaws, but if a 2-disc compilation of both nights came out, I bet it'd be the best Queen live document possible. |
| thomasquinn 32989 27.09.2012 10:06 |
I'm really not sure what I'd call Queen's best show, but I'm pretty sure it was a show in the '77-'80 period. |

"The film crew packed up/left before the encore started. Some people say one camera remained but theres nothing to back this up besides rumours." I love this idea that the BBC packed away 5 or 6 huge great broadcast tube video cameras in the 5 minutes between the main set and the encore...!!! I imagine it would take a good hour to do this!! |

There was some nice comment here a few years ago - something in that sense that if the camera crew were "ordered" to film one hour, they couldn't film more even if they wanted, simply because the union wouldn't allow it, or something like that. Also, we know who started the rumour and even he wrote many times since then, that he was simply wrong. And don't forget that the encore starts with "I think we're on our own now". We have absolutely NO reason to believe that the encores WERE filmed. Even the official DVD will have some slideshow synced to the sound |

Funny how people think that an audience member videoed the show. This was 1975. Do you know how big video cameras were then? They'd never get past security let alone be practical to use in the middle of a Queen audience. And the battery pack would weigh a ton. |
| pittrek 28.09.2012 11:24 |
8mm cameras were not THAT big. The earliest known audience film was shot in 1975, other bands were filmed by audience members since the early 1970's |
| The Real Wizard 28.09.2012 13:18 |
^ what he said. There's even 8mm film of Led Zeppelin in 1969. Anything from Queen's concert history could be in an attic somewhere. |

The audio is in great shape and widely available on bootleg and would be a real shame if an official released didn't include it, even to acompany the obligatory 'gallery'. Regarding the filming, I'm sure if the BBC had it they wouldn't have missed a trick by including at least one song on the recent broadcasts. 8mm film is quite possible but would be nowhere near complete. |
