Can anyone help me with these...
I'm wondering what concerts these are from and if the rest of the track is available in the same if not better quality.
Now I'm Here
Now I'm Here sounds like it's from the Rainbow '74 show from November.
EDIT: 3rd sample sounds like the Christmas show from '75.
Not sure about Ogre Battle, but it sounds like the same version.
However both of these two samples sound like they've been put through some really AWFUL filter.

Ok, thanks for that. They are just clips I recently rediscovered when I was going through some old files - I obtained them from an exhibition 3 or 4 years back and was hoping there might be more available.
Now I;m Here is from 12-24-1975 Hammy Odeon London.
Welcome to the Queen bootlegworld AB-88, a world which raises more questions instead of giving answers, but there is so much joy to discover.
Now I'm Here sounds like November show in Rainbow but without so many overdubs, or something like that. Maybe that can be from another day than the well-known footage.
The March Of The Black Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody, analyzing the beggining, is from Hammersmith Odeon 1975 show.
Ogre Battle, according to the first seconds, sounds like is from, again, Hammersmith Odeon 1975 show.
And Keep Yourself Alive, analyzing the words "Keep Yourself Alive!" and the final part of the guitar solo is, finally, from Hammersmith Odeon 1975 show.
All this "samples" are, like Nitroboy said, treated with some really awful filter, or also are from old and outdated sources.
This are my thoughts.
Be happy!
Sikke, if you compare this NIH MP3 to the well-known music files, not always Freddie sounds the same, and also run at different speed.
And if that "sample", it's really from Hammy, is slowed down.
Now I'm Here - Rainbow 74, from the Greatest Video Hits DVD (vocal overdubs are low in the mix).
Black Queen / BoRhap ending - Hammersmith 75 (the 2009 BBC mix)
Ogre Battle - Hyde Park 76 (from one of the recent documentaries)
Keep Yourself Alive - Earls Court 6-6-77 (I hear people talking during the drum solo, so it's sourced from a fan convention, perhaps? Either way, it's definitely NOT from Hammersmith 75)

Thanks for this very concise information. Much appreciated.
Could they be recordings from the Stormtroopers In Stilettos exhibition? That would explain the sound quality and the "people noise" during the Keep Yourself Alive clip.

Hi thanks Beta : the thing that fooled me was I only listened to the NIH very shortly and heared the "sirenes" were very prominent. As on the Hammy75 show.
Quick question : are the "sirenes" also on the rainbow video and the acetate transfer ? I never knew the used the " sirenes" effects on the Rainbow shows, thought the only pro-recording was the Hammy 75 one ...
So anyone ?
