Due to unforeseen circumstances (ie David Fuller running off with my rarities) I have no more tracks to offer. (What - you really believed in a bottomless well?) (Un)grateful Fan's Utopia has been realised - and all these tracks have "gone democratic". I would like copies of the Queen versions of "Let Me In Your Heart again" and "Killing Time". I have nothing to offer in return, but seeing as I have given my all (I mean time, talents, monies and rarities freely to the Queen community for the last twenty or so years); is there anyone out there who is willing to help me out? |

sarcasm does nOT become you John. thought you were above this kind of playground bitchin' |
| John S Stuart 14.05.2013 16:16 |
But it is not sarcasm! Do you not recall the moral of old mother Hubbard? I just genuinely want to know who those "Fans for fans sake" who are out there; and willing to help me as a fellow fan; rather than those who will daily complain but add nothing to the pot. My rarities have dried up drier than a witch's left tit... As Sikke once said: "Just guard better the things you spread Mr Stuart like I do." |

yes...i was the one who gave a "old dog" a jolly good kicking...the whining wretched ungrateful little sod |

Old mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to get here poor doggie a bone. When she bent over Rover took over and gave her a bone of his own! (sorry, lolz) |

Those tracks were the portion of the Fanthology tracks he had limited access to as a member of the group when he was still in the group, which has to be again noted which represents a portion of what the entire group's members had collectively. These are the tracks that he willingly leaked a few against the group's agreement, and the remainder of which he attempted to sell through his Tumblr blog. |

Wish i could help. No rarities here. Where do people get them from anyway? Well. I have never heard of those two songs but it would be nice if they occured here :-) |

We need a youtube channel where we can find al this stuff centraly. Every rarity should be available there. That makes it easier for everybody. There was one on youtube.. Cant find it that fast now.. |

"David Fuller running off with my rarities" Here I was thinking that it was Freddie, Brian, Roger and John performing on all of those things. When I sink money into something that doesn't give me a satisfactory return (tangible or otherwise) I call it a bad investment and move on. At one time it was obviously worth it to you to pay money for Queen items; if that's changed, I'm pretty sure no one gives a fuck. Move on - it'll be good for your health. PS. Please spend your money on something truly worthwhile, like having enormous pizzas delivered to Dave Fuller's house (preferably with obscene notes attached). |

angermair73 wrote: Where do people get them from anyway?Therin lies the ultimate question. The ORIGINAL source HAS to be someone with direct access to the source material (either contemporaneous to the recordings, or now to the archives or personal tapes etc) and therefore IS someone at least with an indirect relation to the band; Studio engineers and other staff Producers Chauffeurs PAs Archivists Publicists Manager The Band Family etc...etc... It will be easier for some of these than others: for example, would a cleaner in Mountain Studios back in the day know how to set up the reel to reel tape machine, make the appropriate settings on the mixing desk and then run a copy of something off? Probably not. However would they be able to pick up a stray cassette copy already run off for genuine playback purposes that's been left on a sofa? Most probably. Unfortunately GB, QPL, etc.. seem to want to blame those here that are several generations down the 'theft' chain rather than admit it was most likely their own organisation that led to the leaks to start with. oh how I'd laugh if John has been sat in Deacon Towers slowly releasing his personal vault via backdoor means for hte last few years! |

Don't forget auctions. Acetates were regularly turfed by the band, many of which were one of a kind pieces. Unless they took very extensive notes of every version of every song from start to finish, nobody can possibly know how many of these are out there. And anyone can buy them. In 1974 they could never have foreseen people collecting these things four decades later, so it's nobody's fault, really. |
| cmsdrums 16.05.2013 11:54 |
True - acetates sold genuinely of otherwise unreleased complete tracks will account for some, but a lot of the later stuff that is works in progress or snippets of ideas won't have got as far as that. |
