My uncle just recently found a VHS Tape with over 3 hours worth of footage that he recorded of Queen from TV over the years. It was recorded on LP mode so the audio and video quality isn't the best it could have been but it's better than nothing! Also it's quite fragmented because he started to record whenever he found something from Queen on TV, so most clips are cut from the start. He also told me that these were most likely recorded around the time Freddie died. The lineage is this I think: TV > VHS (PAL) > ? > DVD-R There are 3 files bellow,they are 1GB almost exactly but the third file has about 38 minutes of a TV program and ads that could caught recorded.

Thanks alot. I've taped some of these programs back in 1991 onto a VHS tape but since i don't have a VCR anymore this is more than welcome. |

Thank you all for your kind words, me and my uncle really appreciate it! :) -Chin |

Thanks for this material. I splitted it into different segments (using frame-precision editing and direct stream, so no re-encoding and no loss of quality) as per the original tapings, and re-uploaded these to Mega: - REAL MAGIC - without commercial breaks 1:16:37 - REAL MAGIC - with commercial breaks 1:24:53 Recorded 1986.07.12 - Wembley Stadium Stereo simulcast 1986.10.25 - Channel 4 TV/Independent Radio, UK Re-broadcast 1987.01.03 - Channel 4, UK TV link - Barcelona (music video) 4:10 Unfortunately I couldn't identify the program this was extracted from (see attached picture for hint). It could be from late 1987, when the video was originally released. - BRITS 1990 - end credits 1:37 British Phonographic Industry (BPI) Awards Recorded 1990.02.18 - London Dominion Theatre Live broadcast, UK TV link (See Queen receive their award: link - The Show Must Go On (music video) 3:04 Top Of The Pops exclusive premiere Broadcast 1991.10.10 - BBC One, UK TV link - FREDDIE MERCURY: A TRIBUTE 51:42 1992.01.04 - BBC Two, UK TV link Download link: link I have added two text files including details from the REAL MAGIC and FM: A TRIBUTE videos. |

Thanks hahaha!! Thanks for Real Magic rip, i love it, dat old and raw sound! |
| Wilki Amieva 26.01.2016 14:31 |
I think I could correct some glitches in the video and re-sync stereo audio from the radio transcription discs. |

By the way, has anyone noticed in the Bohemian Rhapsody video at the end of the BRITS 1990 broadcast, that there's an audio glitch (a bad crossfading, one beat too long)? This very same error was on the Trillion tape transfer provided by Sikke, and it happens exactly at the spot where the 'flames' (supposedly earlier, original Top Of The Pops) version and the regular version match. It makes me wonder... |
| alberbal12 30.01.2016 18:11 |
You mean before the piano part after 'doesn't really matters to me, to me'?? Yes, also I've noticed, mysterious... |
| Thistle 31.01.2016 16:47 |
Yeah, noticed that years ago - has always annoyed me. |
| alberbal12 01.02.2016 13:55 |
I think only sikke can put some of light here... Why that "jump"? |

Thank you very much. |

Thank you, and thanks to your uncle too. This was how it was donne in the old days - a VCR with a tape in place, just in case. Then, if by chance something of interested started on TV we just pressed play and started to scream at the VCR for it to start record ASAP, because usually it would take about 10 secs or more for it to start recording. The good old days :-) |

Yea, my parents recorded something on UTV/ITV that they sent in about my birthday, the reporter read out the birthday and names of the people. They said they were worried it didn't record in time, but I have now converted the tapes and discovered they're 100% perfect! :) If only everything was so simple as to what it was back then.... :) -Chin |

I am very sorry, but the Mega links no longer work, it seems the content was deleted. Can someone reupload this please? Edit: Specifically this link: Download link: link which is "Real Magic" is down. |
