Of course they leave it to the documentary, and naturally it will be commerically available at some point. They need all the money they can get.

Using footage of a 3rd party you need to clear the rights. A simple one off broadcast is a fraction of the costs compared to clearing the rights for a world Wide dvd release.

The Queen Forever vinyl boxset, The Studio Collection, A Night At The Odeon, the Rock A La Carte documentary, a new upcoming documentary and the live shows around the whole year. It finally looks like QP starting to listen to the fans a bit.

I know they had a gold record presentation in Perth 1976 on Countdown by Molly Meldrum , I wonder if that footage has been discovered as it was originally wiped by the ABC (much like the BBC did with TOTP, Doctor Who and a million other shows!)

He means, and i hope, that someone from Queenzone records and shares the program. But i doubt that will happen because every UK tv programs about Queen from past years have been always shared from outside websites instead of some Queenzone users recording and sharing here the original recording.

popy wrote: It's a bit strange that a documentary about a UK band broadcasted on UK tv will be shared here from a webstream rip. I really think this forum has very, very few Queen fans from the UK. If there were any, recording off the free to air digital tv (not from any cable tv or premium channel) of the documentary and sharing would be the easiest thing to do. Just the plain, simple, digital free-to-air terrestrial tv broadcast. Or even from that it's impossible to get the recordings out? I know that getting recordings out of boxes from cable tv/premium channels is hard or even impossible, but is it from a free-to-air terrestrial channel? But as history proves from shares about Queen programs on UK tv, there are very few UK fans around here on Queenzone. Days Of Our Lives was shared here in 720p from an outside source, i think TPB. The Nation's Favourite Queen Song was shared here from dimeadozen or something like that.... in DVD format, not even HD.

Simple enough to record an SD freeview channel in the UK, yes. HD recording and sharing is another matter entirely, please explain how.

popy wrote: Isn't BBC HD also easy to record, get it out of the box (usb hard drive or whatever) as the SD? I'm assuming it is, but i don't know. As you say, i could be wrong.

jjbluecaps wrote: I recorded the documentary by Mediahhh, I am uploading it on YouTube. :) WOW, what a documentary! Lot of never seen footage, little bits os unused material from Days Of Our Lives and outtakes on KYA and Liar. I loved the snippets from Hyde Park and Earls Court! Great picture and perfect sound in stereo! I can not believe! Of course, the triumph was NIH on Top Of The Pops! Unbelievable! Narrative like the Days Of Our Lives documentary (including some repeated parts from there), and I believe that will come out on DVD or Blu-Ray somehow (in Hyde Park, who knows ...) Oh yeah, and there was overdub in DOTA on Earls Court, in the "overgrown school-boy" part.

jjbluecaps wrote: Yes, I can, I will. BUT, it was recorded from the Mediahhh, so the quality is a bit low. Serves until we see a better recording.

Bob Harley wrote: I recorded whole thing from from the site I linked. Rainbow '74 footage looks incredible (even if it's compressed) comparing to Live at the Rainbow '74 version (3/31/74). Now I'm Here (TOTP) footage is nice and alternate Earl's Court shots was surprising. I also enjoyed Hyde Park '76 thing.

Thanks for posting it - but the video won't play in three different programs. Has anyone else managed to get it to work?

Same here. Windows media player won't play it at all. VLC player plays the video with horrible quality and without sound.

The Real Wizard wrote: Major discovery: Has anyone else noticed that the TOTP Now I'm Here is a completely different performance of the song? And it's NOT the BBC version, either. So that makes three studio versions in all.

My Sky planner listed it as 'The Legendary 1975 Concert' rather than 'Live at The Odeon' and the write up was exactly the same as before; don't know if it actually therefore the new version or just laziness them not changing the synopsis and title details.

It's the new Night At The Odeon! :) -Chin

I actually think it sounds great. I'm fine with it being quiet - it's means it's not brickwalled. It's the way it should sound. If this is the way they release it on DVD, then great - turn it up a bit. You can't remove loudness war compression, so this is by far the lesser of the two evils.

$1000 says the overdub comes from the second night. I'd kill to hear that show uncut. Surely there must be an audience tape.

Nah, it's the same version we've had for years.

Yup, you're right - it's instrumental. Well spotted.
