Hello Everybody
I have a question for you
plz can anybody tell me :
When and where was the first time when Queen performed Live We Will rock you song BEFORE THE ALBUM RELEASE ?
and plz if anybody has it as audio plz can you share it?
Or any picture related to this
Thank you all
Hey Rick
i just rechecked the date when NOTW album was released it's:
News of the World is a Queen album released on October 28, 1977.
From wikipedia.org
Thank for trying
Rick is correct but they also performed the "fast" version for the BBC sessions on October 28th as well and I believe they aired it the next day on the radio. A shorter version of "Rock You" was also recorded during that session. That would be the version we're all familiar with. Hope that helps.
Hello Jazz 78
thx for your reply
but i just wanted to know when was the first LIVE
we will rock you i mean in ffront of people
I know about bbc sessions but was that LIVE?
thx
We Will Rock You:
News Of The World album released 28 October 1977.
BBC Session 6 recorded 28 October 1977 (Slow and Fast versions) - broadcast 14 November 1977.
First performed live: Portland, USA 11 November 1977 (first date of the News Of The World tour). No audio recording exists as of this time.
hello Bite the dust
so what you mean is that there isn't any live we will rock you recording before the album realease
It would have be cool and extremely cool if they had performed that song just before the album release !!
At the time, albums were released at least 2 weeks to a month earlier in the UK than in North America. Is the October 28 date the US release or Europe/UK?
There was no live performance before the album release. News Of The World was released on 28 October 1977 in the UK, and on 1 November 1977 in the USA.
The Jazz tour had started before that album was released, same for Hot Space, but not for News Of The World.
