"Original" is not an original, it is an amateur transfer of an illegal high generation VHS copy

Rick wrote: EC doesn't deserve a release. Well, the second night maybe (if it's really complete). The first show is not that great. Overrated. The highlight for me is the RnR-medley. Also, some pretty weird camera-angles. Hyde Park 1976 does. It's a historic concert for Queen. Interesting setlist. Great camerawork. A big ass crowd. The bootleg video is terrible, though. But what has been officially released of the concert looks and sounds stellar. Release the complete gig, with the helicopter footage, interviews from 1975-1976 and I'm a happy fan. Keep on dreaming, I guess.

(...) Pass. I'm ready to give my money to a band/musician who's willing to give me something that I want.

They rarely even give us proper surround mix anyway, it's usually an upmix from stereo. And they didn't have any rushes for Budapest, Montreal or Milton Keynes, so neither of these is an excuse not to release it. As many 70's concerts on the agenda as possible please!

dysan wrote: The biggest disappointment is that Rhys chap saying it's no good for 5.1 sound. So what? The Rainbow show is just boring now, same with Hammersmith '75.

I'm sure I've read on Brian's soapbox that there were no "ISO" machines running to record the individual camera feeds, they were stuck with the edit.

QPL hasn't got the imagination to be able to think laterally - all they're concerned about it units and big units at that. They *FEAR* that if they were to release a concert film in stereo with no 5:1 option, then the product would be lambasted in the reviews sections of the music press. The fact is that no one actually cares whether its in 5:1 or stereo because the visuals of a film are so much more important than the listening experience.

dowens wrote: I thought about making this a separate thread on here, but I'll just state this here because it seems appropriate. Have you read the comments concerning the ICON release? They are all blasting the release. It's pretty apparent if you read here that we all feel the same way. GT and others seem to respect the fans on here because they do drop in occasionally and even ask for information concerning research, etc. They aren't oblivious to the fact that Queen fans are tired of these releases. It's just a shame that Queen Productions can't release anything of significance for the real fan-base.

Sorry dude, I got it wrong. And yeah, many people have tried to ask it before but no proper answer has been given to date yet. But hey, let's live in hope, huh? I think there could be a few reasons why it might never happen, but knowing the people of this website I don't feel generally fine revealing these reasons because it may lead to some unforeseen consequences.

Holy crap, man, let it drop. Every time Rich posts in any thread you mysteriously show up. rocknrolllover is a troll; he verbally abuses people and can be downright vicious sometimes. Why don't you call him out? You seem to have this chip on your shoulder with Rich. We get it; you don't like him, and you feel the need to bully him at the drop of a penny. But whatever you have against him, you're ruining the board with your constant diversions. Take it to email or private message and keep things on topic. No one cares about your stupid little spats.

dowens wrote: You know, taking a closer look at the track list for the ICON cd, only 4 of the tracks are from the 80's and 90's. The rest are from the 70's. That's interesting.

I reacted to the bipolar insult, because Inu knows I am bipolar, AND because it was directed rocknrolllever for no good reason. I generally do not ignore bipolar insults on a public noticeboard.

The problem with the Earl's Court recordings is, as the 1st night audience recording we put out over a year ago proves, they were having major problems with faulty patch cables chiefly on the vocal mics. It's possible too they were also having a bad night with the various equipment on the audio chain ("exploding" amps anyone?) which may have also contributed to the various problems plaguing the EC SB masters. You can even hear minor noises not typical of an absolutely clean recording on the "'39" recording on the ANATO bonus CD, and I will bet you guys anything even my studio engineer buddy (who incidentally did the remastering work on aforementioned aud. recording) will say that there's been restoration work done just to get it to sound good!

I stopped caring years ago. Anyway, surely there asre still some more '80s Freddie with 'tache' concerts to milk before then? :)
