OF COURSE it would be great if the setlist were a bit different, if Freddie were in a bit finer voice, etc etc etc... is there another show from 1975 they could release? NO!! This is it...are the folks here saying they won't even buy it the type that listen to one show from a tour and that's enough for them? I seriously don't get it...for years we've been clamoring for anything from the 1970's on video/DVD....they release Rainbow and it's INCREDIBLE...now they might be releasing the next live show from the 70's and because it's got a similar set list to a show from a year and half before it's no good? Come on....if Queen had filmed 10 shows in December 1975 I'd buy every one!! It's Queen on film (video, what have you) from 1975 in the best quality ever for christ sakes! Sorry for the rant, but I just don't understand the resentment.

Agreed. When they say 'newly restored' I wonder if that just refers to the restoration they did several years ago and was broadcast on the BBC, or whether perhaps they like the plug ins they used on the drums for The Rainbow release and so have revamped it once more? ps - I'd love to be at that event to really ask some pointed questions of Greg Brooks and Justin Shirley-Smith........

Fans may have a point when they say it should have happened a long time ago but that doesn't change the fact it' s awesome we're now finally getting it on an official release. 3 seventies shows in 2 years! I'm sure that positivism from us and huge sales will result in more gems in roughly the next 10 years. Now, let's see what extra's will be included.

Restored means no more than adapting the quality from the original 1975 VIDEO (bcn1that means) to the standards of 2015. IN technical term yes that is a huge difference. In other words : when the release a unrestored 1975 you will be complaining. When they restore you won;t complain. Excact the same happened with Rainbow. When you have bought a copy of the unrestored version you would have returned it to the recordstore.

BTW, There still a mystery with 1st encore (Big Spender/Bama Lama Bama Loo) from March 1974 Rainbow gig. Why it wasn't included in last year's release.

From what I've seen, neither the Rainbow 74 video or the Hammersmith 75 videos were in bad quality. Also, why are they obsessed with converting EVERYTHING to NTSC.

Jeez. I hope it's NOT the butchered, widescreened de-interlaced effort that was shown on the BBC. After the Rainbow set, it NEEDS to be 4:3 and interlaced AND in amazing quality on an SD Bluray.

No, but.... Remember GVH1 (2002) and GVH2 (2003)? I wonder when we are going to get the rest of the videos in 5.1...ups sorry, 4.1 from Innuendo and beyond. It's been 12 years, why can't they release the rest of the videos to close the video collection? 12 years in the making for the rest of the videos? wow, is it going to be a super-hyper-mega-special edition?

I'd say yes, as the edition shown on the BBC in the last few years has been pretty comprehensively remixed to a level being just treating a stereo mix. Hammy 79 hasn't seen the light of day for the reason as given by other posters - that they lost the multitracks. This is really annoying as the stereo mix is more than adequate and sound far better than the Rio 85 mix that they have happily released a couple of times!!

Even the Queen members didn't like music videos, quoting Freddie: "When people hear a song, imagine a story, a music video ruin that imagination and force them to see a predeterminate story" Or more or less, i'm quoting by memory. And besides, a concert video is about a band playing their songs. A videoclip is a scripted act created by some director, it doesn't enhance the music to me.

Your opinion is pointless because real fans want to see the Innuendo videos and outtakes be released. QP doesn't target casual fans but hardcore fans who will buy anything they release. So yes to release a GVHIII is still relevant even today.

I don't know, but we do know that they managed to fix all the 'mistakes' in it either way.

Oscar J wrote: Can't change the pitch of individual strings on a guitar, since the strings don't have individual tracks in the multitrack. As if this isn't enough, there's overdrive on the amp, which kills every last chance of being able to separate the different notes that the strings make.

Yeah. I guess they could have recorded new parts for the affected bits but that would have been lame.

People have short memory, years and years of rereleases of Wembley are easily forgotten. With Earls Court unreleaseable and Houston and Hammersmith 79 without multitracks, yeah, only Hammersmith 75, Hyde Park 76 and maybe Tokyo 75 are releaseable. So yeah, this should be more appreciated.

cmsdrums wrote: What rubbish...Hammy 79 is perfectly releaseable with a cleaned up version of the exising stereo mix. Seeing the latest posts on this however fille me with hope that they have actually now tracked down the master audio tapes and so might possibly want to releases it with a full remix. (As long as they make the drums sound more akin to Rainbow and Montreal rather than Milton Keynes!!)

Yes, but i prefer a release for each concert. I mean one for Hammy, one for Tokyo, like that. The last time, with Montreal and Live Aid, was an awful decision for launching it 'joined'. If they offer any extra, would be perfect, but please, step by step.

What about the other shows from Hammersmith in the same year? Five shows in a row according to queenlive, but these are a blur, maybe were multitracked aswell?

Very unlikely - other than 1979, there are very few Queen shows that were multi-tracked apart from those that were filmed.

It is considered part of the bigger Tokyo area. By the way, the Forest National is a hall in "Forest" or rather "Vorst" in Dutch, being part of the bigger Brussels area... So, maybe we shouldn't call that Brussels either?

Not necessarily - you're working on it always being held for a 40th anniversary; they could pick any sensible celebratory number, so for example people are moaning that if Hyde Park 76 footage is unreleasable then we won't get anything in 2016 as nothing else was captured in '76. They could however quite easily get a Knebworth '86 package together and release it as a 30th anniversary set. (before the barrage, I'm not saying I want Knebworth above a Hyde Park release!!) 2016 is also the 25th anniversary of Innuendo and Freddie's death; something could be done for that (not live material I grant you, but a decent package with interviews, EPKs, studio footage etc..) Don't ever be led to think too simply about QPL's release strategy (or lack of one!)

Negative Creep wrote: All the big bands are stingy with opening up the vaults. I don't want or expect bands to release stuff that is rubbish, but I find it surprising when pretty much nothing comes out when there is surely plenty there that is worthy of release. I think with a lot of 60's/70s bands in particular when they see how small album sales are compared to the past, they don't see enough financial reward for letting this stuff out and generally aren't bothered about letting people hear it. I also think to some extent "the archives" get mentioned to prospective new record labels, and is then dangled in front of them and the fans until that deal expires. Why do you think the Queen re-issues had such poxy bonus material.... why for instance on the first album we just got an acetate transfer of demos many fans have heard for years instead of any of the outtakes which do indeed exist? All this material is now sat on hardd rives, having long been transferred. If QPL turned to Universal and told them they wanted to do big expanded 3CD boxsets of each album, they'd wet themselves. I know some elements like to pretend it's the nasty record labels who'd prefer to release pointless compilations - but that simply isn't true. If QPL handed over their archives to Universal tomorrow ans said "release what you want", it wouldn't be long before great stuff came out.

This is the same band who paired a 1982 show with Live Aid, remember.

Yeah, but didn't Queen include the Vienna and Japan concerts from '82 as a bonus to Queen on Fire?

The thing is, Montreal and Budapest were filmed entirely but didn't survive the test of time due to different reasons (cut out film ending up on the cutting room floor, being destroyed or lost years later). BUT Hammersmith was NOT filmed entirely - the BBC filming crew packed up their cameras before the second encore and left.

You know, I am somehow inclined to believe you because it was like a bolt from the blue when the Rainbow press release came out last June and it stated that the March show would include The Fairy Feller's Master Stroke, something which nobobdy had ever expected, and it was made known on the day of the press release.

========================================= Well the december show from Queen was part of the Old Grey Whistle Test with Bob Harris. Not sure if TOGWT used de Odeon to film there with the BBC frequently. That means perhaps more is recorded in November/December when Queen performed there...

So that is what we probably get From where you know? ===================================== Soapbox Brian May... can you show me, please ============================================ Queenonline post: link 18th November 2009 Hammersmith 75 on BBC2 The Legendary Queen Christmas show at the Hammersmith Odeon from December 24th 1975 is to be broadcast on BBC2 on Friday Nov 27th at 11.35pm. On Christmas Eve 1975, Queen crowned a glorious year with a special concert at London's Hammersmith Odeon. The final night of their triumphant UK tour, the show was simulcast live on BBC Two's The Old Grey Whistle Test and BBC Radio One. It has become a legendary event in Queen's history, featuring stunning renditions of early hits Killer Queen, Keep Yourself Alive, Liar and Now I'm Here alongside Brian May's epic guitar showcase Brighton Rock, a rip-roaring version of the then new Bohemian Rhapsody and the crowd-pleasing Rock 'n' Roll Medley. Freddie, Brian, Roger and John set the place alight in their incredible stage outfits and long hair. “It's been really like a party here tonight” says Brian. Incidentally, Brian and Freddie's parents met for the first time at this show. They had lived a couple of streets away from one another for over a decade, yet somehow had never actually encountered one another! The fruit of more than four years detective work to find missing video footage and even the original multi-track audio tapes which were thought to have been wiped, this new 50 minute version of the show features a fantastic new sound mix produced by Queen engineers Justin Shirley-Smith, Kris Fredriksson, and Joshua J Macrae. This Legendary show, widely regarded by fans as one of Queen's finest, is finally coming to our screens. “!it's just such an extraordinary performance!” Charlie Stayt, BBC TV Breakfast The set list that night was as follows. Now I'm Here / Ogre Battle / White Queen / Medley: Bohemian Rhapsody; Killer Queen; The March Of The Black Queen; Bohemian Rhapsody (Reprise); Bring Back That Leroy Brown / Brighton Rock / Guitar Solo / Son And Daughter (Reprise) / Keep Yourself Alive / Liar / In The Lap Of The Gods (Revisited) / Encore Medley: Big Spender; Jailhouse Rock; Stupid Cupid; Be Bop A Lula; Shake Rattle And Roll; Jailhouse Rock (Reprise) / Second Encore: Seven Seas Of Rhye / See What A Fool I've Been / God Save The Queen

I would argue with him about the "first time". Does not he know that the network has a lot of bootlegs of this show?

A direct mastertape transfer in high bitrate hardly requires a lot of work unless the tape is damaged (which it probably isn't). What I think they usually do is resize (upscale) to HD resolution, change some colours a bit, boost contrast, denoise, sharpen and there's your SD Blu-Ray. So I can't see what could have been improved there if they did this already years ago since denoising, sharpening and colour correcting etc are the most basic operations in a video editing software. Those aren't really the worst video issues that require the newest algorithms ;) The worst video problems come from higher generation VHS tapes (the worst of them being signal issues, re wobbly picture, which can only be fixed whilst doing the transfer with a TBC. No software can fix it in post) but they most likely don't even encounter problems like this since they have the best raw sources. In short - if they did this in 2009, I can't see them doing it again because it wouldn't look better as far as technical side, although it could only look better if the person who did it now was more competent in editing field than the one who did it in 2009 - give 2 people the same video and the same software and each video will come out slightly different. Sorry for the long post, I love brainstorming about video and editing.

AlexRocks wrote: Too bad it is not part of a three part concert package containing the 1979 concert and the 2012. What a wasted opportunity. Maybe a different edit of the show can be done one day. How bizarre that a show that is so similar to "Live At The Rainbow" is being released one year later. That also should have been part of a career compilation. Or dare I say only parts of it with a full release done some time later...now they will have what nothing outside of Hyde Park from the first half of the 1970's or maybe a bit of the concert from Japan in 1975, eh?

Doga wrote: To the people who think this concert is short or is a wasted release, look at it that way, this show was a Christmas show for the national television, something out of the ordinary. Is like the UEFA Champions League final, that match is hardly the best game of the season but is the most memorable because is an special occasion.

Why do people keep speculating about there even being tapes with the encores? As far as I know, the camera crews packed their shit before 2nd encore so they weren't even filmed. Or am I missing something here?

Do you mean that they found the tapes... of an amateur recording. Remember that the encore wasn't recorded professionally.

I think it will be true... I don't know why but i believe what Luca Navacchia wrote in that page. ¿Maybe we will get the complete Budokan concert?? Dreaming is free!

That would be a nice extra. But, at this point, it's uncertain is they recorded multitrack audio for that show (we all hope they did). At least, the Tokyo '75 bits we have always seen have audience sound. And the video shown at the SiS exhibition didn't have propper audio from that show...

I think the chances are very small that they recorded Tokyo '75 multitrack. However, it's certainly possible they have a better sounding reel to reel recording. Let's hope so! And let's hope they release it. It would have my mind more than blown :-)

Interesting - not heard that before. It would make sense though, with several shows being shown by the fan club at conventions and events with terrible sound, despite them presumably sourcing those directly from QPL.

1. ANATO album 2.Bonus disc with soundcheck and possibly demoes 3. A Night At The Odeon-Hammersmith Odeon 1975 full audio show. 4. DVD A Night At The Odeon-Hammersmith 1975 with bonuses interview with Bri, Roger, and Bob Harris

Japan on CD I doubt of course, but it would be great, although would be better to see complete Japan

================================ Yes my thoughts too, Or Japan complete on audio or an early Hammersmith show from October/November from the QP vaults.
