Those pics are very interesting indeed and I've never seen 'em before! From the era, I can suppose they come from the famous lost "Now I'm here" BBC video. I always heard about it but apparently nobody has a copy, nor collectors or the very BBC itself. Has anybody ever seen that NIH videoclip at TOTP and can confirm my theory? Cheeeeers! |

wow those are really rare, i never saw them before aswell |

Looking at the set of the seond one, I wonder if it isn't a rehearsal for Killer Queen. |

On the second photo Brian is on left side from Freddie and John is on right from him (if you're looking from audience)... Pretty unusually! |

Cheeeeers!I really pitty there ain't no footage anymore, however I doubt it. I mean I think the tape is in some lost archives or at least one Queen fan who has it. |

ok to add my thoughts: the second pic, I always thought that this is the now im here - top of the pops video. This picture (or a slightly different one) is already published in the "Queen Live" book. If you watch closely, on the right side of the picture you can see the second stage with a drum skin of "Hello". A quick research on the TOTP website revealed that there was indeed a band called Hello, with a performance on the 20th of Feb, 1975 (with Tony Blackburn as presenter). Now lets check Queen : Now Im Here 16th Jan/30th Jan (Tony Blackburn) and 13th Feb 1975 (repeat). So it is not a perfect match, but quite close... my best guess is that both were recorded on the same day - maybe 30th of Jan - i am not sure about the reliability of these dates, as neither performance survived in the archives... that was just a quick 10 minute research, i will dug myself into it now...

link TOTP Las Palabras De Amor with public. It's just a rehearsal or this take was filmed? Pikkolo Luca |
| Ozz 18.09.2005 14:20 |
great research i tend to think in that theory i wish that performance isnt lost at all |
| Ozz 18.09.2005 14:22 |
that website has a lot of interesting pictures |

Yeah, after many notes that this performance was filmed without audience (and it was actually, as we might see on GHVII or GFIII) - it all looks strange at least! |

The picture with freddie in red jacket I have seen footage of before, It was shown on a queen documentary a few years ago, I am pretty sure its Killer Queen and its not from TOTPs. I think it was shown on that Channel 4 Killer Queen Docu. |
| Mkls 19.09.2005 10:51 |
this was never shown in documentaries and definitely not in Killer Queen - sorry. |
| Serry... 19.09.2005 11:15 |
I like this picture with Todd! Didn't know they've met with Freddie... |

could it be the rare 7 seas totp apperance???? |
| Penetration_Guru 20.09.2005 13:56 |
No, cos we've seen enough of that to know that the clothes are wrong |
| Rick 20.09.2005 14:40 |
First one: I'd say Killer Queen. Drumkit is the same as the one in the video we know. But John looks different... Second one: Hmm, difficult. Now I'm Here? I really don't know... |

I haven't the first clue about this, but I just wondered - might either of them be from The Old Grey Whistle Test? Cheers Paul |
| Mkls 21.09.2005 11:50 |
ok it might be Killer Queen - and the perfomance from the 21th of Nov 1974: according to the totp database, Hello appeared on the same show, which escaped my eyes before - although this perfomance was never shown in any documentary . |
| Mkls 21.09.2005 12:06 |
as for the first picture : if the 2nd pic is coming from the 21st Nov show, the 27th Dec appearance is the well known "fur-coat" one, this leaves two options: 11th and 24th Oct. |

Go on, son! Hi Miklos :-) |

Miklos wrote: this was never shown in documentaries and definitely not in Killer Queen - sorry.Yes your right, but I am sure I have seen this, going through all my tapes at the moment. Anyway the 2nd pic is almost certainly Killer Queen being played, I have quite a few pictures of John from this performance and on every picture he is playing a 'flat' note which would make KQ an obvious choice. This picture is also not from the BBC but from Redferns making TOTPs unlikely. |
