Queen music download : 1975-05-01 Tokyo, Japan - DVD (2009 remaster)

It's time that I try to start my first Queenzone torrent, so be patient, please :)

Queen : Emperors of Japan (2 CDs + 1 DVD)

This DVD captures first visit of Queen in Japan and the beginning of "Queenmania" in this country.
The live footage captures 3 songs of their last Japan concert, taking place in Budokan, Tokyo May 1st.

Video : PAL, 720x576, 25 fps, 8MBps
Audio : LPCM 2.0 48kHz

Tracklist :

1. The airport
2. The press conference
3. Picnic / Tea ceremony
4. Messages to Japan fans
5. Now I'm Here
6. Killer Queen
7. In The Lap Of The Gods ...revisited
8. Epilogue

Sources :

The almost complete documentary is circulating among fans since the 70's, but common copies come from extremely high generation tapes. I have managed to find a pretty good looking copy, with a lot of details and almost correct colors. This was my main source. In the 80's the master tape was re-edited for use in the "Magic Years" documentary, but the most interesting part - the live footage - was ommitted almost completely. This cut was used for all other documentaries, up to "Killer Queen", which uses many parts of "Now I'm Here" which were never seen anywhere only in the old documentary.

What have I done - I have taken the 3 sources, cleaned them up with various video filters, deinterlaced them and corrected their speed so now all 3 sources run at the same speed. Since the audio on the original documentary was barely listenable, I have replaced it completely. The documentary parts, which were using the studio tracks are now synchronized with the audio coming from the Japan remastered albums. The live parts come now from an audience recording which was released on the bootleg "Young Nobles Of Rock".

The video cleanup was done in AviSynth, the synching and cutting in Womble MPEG Video Wizard, and the authoring in DVDLabPro.


Big thanks to YourValentine for making 2 of the sources available for me and for her OK to share it here ;)


This is actually a 2CD/1DVD set, those of you who want the 2 audio discs, I have shared it here :

As I wrote, my "main source" has finally "almost" correct colours and the other 2 sources were in excellent quality.

What about a little update of the cover art ? :-)

thank you so much!!

yeah yeah yeah, of course  ;)

I just finished the download and I have to say you´ve done a superb job, Peter. Really ! Can´t wait burning it on a DVD disc and watching it on TV !

absolutely great!! thank you ;-)

So 113 seeders already ? Faster than I thought, great.

I'm glad you like it guys, I'm thinking about sharing something interesting for Christmas, just don't know what yet

Very nice, very very nice, thanks a lot!

The authoring/production on this DVD is fantastic. Very nice work.

Stone Cold Leo'82 B.R.

I agree with everyone else - it is like veiwing something new for the first time. Excellent work Peter!

Thanks

Arigato....can't wait to see it! Thanks for your hard work.......

Great stuff! Really very well made. I like the intro very much, just like the official ones!
Thank you Pittrek for your work. I'm very happy to have it.

This is actually a cover for the old version. I would prefer NOT to use it, so that these two different things don't get mixed up




I simply want to own DVDs which I will personally love to watch. Since Queen Productions won't let me buy them, I have to create them on my own :)

Excellent work, Pittrek, thanks very much.

Is anyone making new art for this?

Thanks man, much appreciated your work!

Awesome work! Thanks a lot! :)

Pittrek, QueenProduction should hiring you!!

*edited, see below*

Well, generally we adore and admire greatly the artwork you provide to us, dear Alex. Really, it usually is superb, and it is nice downloading an excellent Pitrek productions release, and having it beautifully enhanced by your wizard with artwork.

But this time it took you three days to deliver that to us. 72 hours.
This is not possible we continue dealing with you, and we are forced to cancel our previous deals. 72 hours is just much too long. We don't understand why it takes you that long to make some artwork ... Are you lazy at work ? Been hanging aroung in the clubs all night long, and now you are not quite productive ? That's insane. You should stop dr$ù*^]ç%ing and cl=%$*!bing all night long and keep that for the weekends. We, your dear clients, are clearly upset by the fact you seem to forget the urgent need that we have of your products. Plus, the first link didn't work !!! Do you realize ?
This situation is not bearable anymore.

We ask for a refund.

Wow... amazing work, Alex.

You what ? who do you think you are ? you better shut up your f+++ing mouth, you loser !!!

Alex , I have no words. You´ve bettered it to another level. Many thanks :)

Thanks!!!

Thanks pittrek!!! Your contributions to this site are excellent. Really apreciatted.

Any chance of someone uploading just the DVD to Megaupload or Rapidshare?? It would be great.

 Unfortunately there's always going to be someone who wants to put their name on someone else's work.

Just try to feel at peace with the fact that plenty of people do appreciate the work you put into this.  Never, ever let the negative trump out the positive.

I fully understand your reaction and feelings about this, Peter.

However,  the fact there is one idiot does not change the fact that many people appreciate your work. (which is astounding, thanks again!)

Well, it's not a sign of appreciation to not credit someone's work and to make it look like it's your work:-)

About the copyright thing, you're right:-)

all i can say is thanks for this, downloading with full speed!

May I thank you again Pittrek for this wonderful dvd creation. I really love it . Even though the docu is just about 18 minutes long, but I already watched it more than five times :-)

goa - a few days ago, somebody has sent me a PM - I think it was you, but I accidentally deleted it - if you want please send it to me again

many thanks for the cds/dvds and artwork

Very good stuff from Queen. Thank you very much for sharing!

A massive thanks for sharing this- looking really forward to seeing the video which has long eluded the masses in decent quality. And thanks for the stunning artwork too- it just doesn't get better than this. I've been away from Queenzone for a while and am I'm thrilled to see what is being shared and also very grateful for what I have been able to download.....thanks a million !!

I had this on an old VCD, so this was a really good chance to catch a better version!

Thanks a lot for making this DVD, pittrek!

PS: I'll be seeding as much as I can, guys!
