I want something 1976-1980
The are a few Bootlegs they could fix up
Houston 77
-Great performance and easy to remaster
(Already has a great soundboard)
Hammersmith 79
-Probably best concert we have on video and official live versions of if you can’t beat them and Mustapha.
Earls Court
- good concert with mic problems, but probably sounds better on the multi tracks
Hyde park
- famous performance that’s been begging for a release.
Are there any concerts in the vault on video that would be a good release.
Houston has problems on the multitracks apparently, the Hammy 69 multitracks are still missing apparently. I'm convinced the next live release will be Paris 79 simce we've had a teaser already on the Bho-rap OST album.

I seriously doubt it. Paris '79 wasn't shot on film so I doubt they will release anything of such "bad quality". And of course they wouldn't release any one-camera -footage anyway, no matter how great the audio would be. It's QPL we're talking about, not King Crimson. They just won't release shit if they can't autotune Freddie etc.
What COULD be released
- Hyde Park 76 - they have multi-camera video footage, behind the scenes footage, aerial footage...
- Earls Court 77 - they have 2 complete shows
- Houston 77 - they have full NTSC video of the complete concert,lots of backstage footage shot by Bob Harris, alternate footage shot by Bob Harris...
- lots of short Live Killers TV reports, they would have to maybe license them from all the European TV stations
- Paris 79 - they have 3 full shows, all of them would be great
- Hammersmith Odeon 79 - one of the best gigs they ever did
What WILL be released?
The 1997 ballet footage

I was just talking about audio. Paris 79 I think is still most likely with a bonus dvd of the footage. Queen don't really have anything great shot on film left so any future DVD releases will likely be stuff shot on video. Maybe the Munich 79 film footage could form the centrepiece of a love killers style compilation. I don't think the full show was filmed unfortunately so a compilation may be the best we get. Somthing like the Led Zepplin DVD from 2003 would be cool.
I prefer an anthology of live audio with a nice book, just simple and beauty. no replica of tickets and such shots. I don't really care about video etc after three times I never watch them again.
I dont know how much they have of second night of Rio, but they could release atleast the first night full, i would really love 2DVD set of Rio (each night on its own dvd like Wembley)

I would love the 1st night im Rio to get a full release. Freddie was in great voice. The 2nd night not so much.
----------------------------------
Could be fun, Hope they have the orginal reels so they can fill in the missing bits like the part during IWTBF where Freddie start throwing stuff back( batteries, bottles etc) to the audience.
They definetaly have the full footage of Rio 1st night. Bits of footage showed up in Days of our Lives and the Freddie Mercury documentaries. Quality about as crap as the original release! Those ancient brazillian TV cameras were terrible.
