I also have this video as 1 GB DVD which contains menu. Probably this is better than my old version?

Is this version a bit blurred still, or is it perfectly clean?

Still a bit blurred, but nothing major.

Is there a perfect version available?

Is there a version with a menu? This quality must be very close to source.

It's the same common (blurry) version around
re-encoded and with simulated stereo sound, that's the reason for 2GB.

Ok... thanks for the info!

Somewhere, perhaps. It was broadcast on TV somewhere. What we have here is probably a second or third gen copy from TV.

By the way...

You guys should close off the font tags in your names so that all the text doesn't appear like

or this. :)

It does not come from a 2nd or 3rd gen VHS tape but it comes from VHS. The slightly "blurry" picture comes from the Japanese TV, we also have that on the "Jewels" DVD. I don't know why that is but we used to have it on old US TV productions (pre 1980), too.

The 2 GB come from the file length, it's only 32 minutes, 2 GB are normal.

Not "perfect", but a "longer" version does exist

What about the footage of Dreamers Ball on the ANATO DVD? It looks like this show to me.

I guess it's completely filmed, because they show songs from the beginning, the middle and the end of the set. Still, it's just an assumption :)

BTW, I do like this version of Don't Stop Me Now. Freddie having troubles singing it and Roger helping him out.

What what what ? Where exactly is the footage (video clip disc or documentary disc, which part ...) ? I would like to check it.

I love it too, you can hear that the guy suffers and how he's happy when he manages to scream higher notes during the middle improvisation

Hmmm, is it just me or something is wrong with the files...? I can't play it via PowerDVD (open dvd files from HDD). Hmmm, Anybody?

I guess it's Dreamers Ball, because Roger is behind the small drumkit in the middle of the stage. It's the video clip disc. I'm going to check it out for you.

It could be Paris as well, here's one shot: http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/64/screensv7.png

I had some trouble with gaining a good screenshot, but this gives you a global image.

There's also another shot of Roger from the other side, minus Freddie and the part of John's bass.

EDIT: You can see these shots in the last bit of Good Company ;-)

EDIT2: Dammit, seems like printscreen doesn't work for this! It's a black screen now (at least here), so I'm going to try it once more in a different way!

Well they made it b&w, because the whole Good Company video is like that ;-)

I used VLC media player to make snapshots (video disc of the ANATO DVD)

It's hard to tell where it's from. It really looks like Tokyo, because of the cameras' position and the close-ups. I can't remember Paris having these kind of close-ups.

Although it's still hard to tell. We had this discussion before, but can't remember what the outcome was.

Posted by Rick user not visiting Queenzone.com

on 6/13/2008 8:52:00 AM

Without a doubt it's from Tokyo. Thanks for the reminder about that!

But the reason for identifying it as Tokyo is simply comparing the clothing they're wearing. We can't use close-ups as the only reason, as there is multi-cam footage from Paris on The Champions and the Magic Years, with plenty of close-ups.

Posted by The Real Wizard user not visiting Queenzone.com

on 6/13/2008 11:21:00 AM

You're right about that, Bob. Been some time out of the Queen world, so I forgot about Paris having such close-ups as well ;-)

Do you think it was filmed completely?

Posted by SCOM user not visiting Queenzone.com

on 6/13/2008 12:55:00 PM

not realy... The difference is quite hard to notice. In some parts the new version (2GB) is less "blocky" than the previous one. If you watch both of them on TV, you will not (almost) see the difference. The sound is also quite similar, so if you have low speed Internet connection it is not worth to download (IMO).

I think so. There is footage from various points of the concert from the beginning to the end, so I can't see why they would have turned the cameras off at certain points. And there was more footage shown on US TV in 1979, just that one time. Check out my website for the details.

I too think the whole show was filmed.

I'd like to see the complete show. Despite Freddie's voice issues it's a great show. I haven't heard the complete show so I wonder how Freddie sounded on songs like dreamers ball. Maybe some bits could be included on a compilation box, if that ever happens. But because of Freddie's voice a stand alone release is not possible. they will not release a show with Freddie struggling that much.

At least QP has it in perfect quality. A Live Killers boxset would be a dream. So many material is available from this era. It could easily be a commercial succes as they had enough hits at the time.

Although it would never happen...

Apparently, the full show was caught on video, but for some reason Mr.Brooks is hoarding this information. He says QP only have bits of this show
http://www.queenzone.com/queenzone/forumnew/forum_topic_view.aspx?Q=1027435

I also found strange that, after being used in several clips and documentaries, Greg didn't mention about having Japan 1975 footage in the archives!

If Greg can't even identify which tours certain pictures come from, then he probably isn't able to identify all the footage in the vaults.

As long as the footage has survived the test of time, then it's there. In that case, he just hasn't found it, or he hasn't identified it properly.

Naturally it depends on who you ask!

This DVD doesn't reach today's DVD-quality standards, but it is still quite good. It was broadcast on TV like this.
