Jam Monkey Bohemian: 555 posts	Posted: 16 Oct 09, 16:30 As promised here is a recording of the BBC Rock Hour radio show from 4th March 1984, containing parts of the 1975 Hammersmith show. This has been recorded directly from the transcription vinyl by me. I am kind of new to this, but I guess that would make the lineage: AUD>Master>Vinyl>WAV>Flac Level 8. (Please correct me if I am wrong). 1 Intro 2 Now I'm Here 3 Ogre Battle 4 White Queen 5 Ad Break 1 6 Medley 7 Bring Back That Leroy Brown 8 Keep Yourself Alive 9 Ad Break 2 10 Brighton Rock 11 Son and Daughter 12 Ad Break 3 13 Liar 14 In The Lap Of the Gods...Revisted 15 Close http://rapidshare.com/files/293846203/BBC_Rock_Hour.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/293884703/BBC_Rock_Hour.part2.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/293778764/BBC_Rock_Hour.part3.rar EDIT: I know it's some time since I shared this, but here are the cue sheets for this broadcast http://rapidshare.com/files/352022738/Cue_Sheets.rar Download Queen demos here: http://tinyurl.com/37uz8ut Email: jam_monkey@hotmail.com

daffy_the_duck Bohemian: 744 posts	Posted: 16 Oct 09, 17:57 Your lineage is wrong. It's not an audience recording so it should be BBC broadcast>vinyl>wav>flac. If I'm wrong feel free to correct ;) anyway, thanks for sharing :)

It's not an audience recording so it should be BBC broadcast>vinyl>wav>flac. 1) It's a transcription disc, a.k.a. an acetate, so it's a pre-FM. The ads are even still there, so it's certainly not a recording of what was put over the airwaves. And if the sound is pristine, that only favours that suggestion, as there wouldn't be any FM interference heard on the recording. 2) We don't know if the recording was processed in any way or if it was transferred to some other medium before being pressed onto vinyl. So I'd say it's this: Soundboard master > ? > BBC transcription disc > 16-bit 96 kHz WAV > FLAC "The more generous you are with your music, the more it comes back to you." -- Dan Lampinski http://www.queenlive.ca

How does it compare to the common versions ? http://www.queenzone.com/queenzone/forumnew/forum_topic_view.aspx?Q=1109319

It's the older common mix, as expected. It sounds excellent, but it offers nothing that other versions don't already have to offer... unless you're interested in hearing ads from 1984. :-) "The more generous you are with your music, the more it comes back to you." -- Dan Lampinski http://www.queenlive.ca
