Queen I Box Set Announced - Pre-Release Discussion Only

I'm one of those who does not understand you. It seems to me that you are disrespectful to those who decide to buy any product that has to do with Queen.



If you allow me, I will answer you:


* You say Brian May was laughing at me when the "Back to the Light" box set went on sale. No, he's not laughing at anyone. He puts a record on sale and everyone who is going to buy it knows the content of the record. There is no scam, nor is there deception, nor is there anything like that.

* You say that between 1997-2006 rubbish was published. If my memory serves me correctly, in those years they released "Queen Rocks", "Electric fire", "Another world", "Furia", "GH3", "Wembley (DVD)", "Live at the bowl", "Greatest Video Hits (DVD)". etc It seems to me that GH3 is absolute rubbish and the worst release in Queen history, the rest is not. Those other albums are excellent to me. Special mention to "Electric fire" and "Another world" albums, that I enjoyed almost like any Queen album. Those albums and DVDs are anything but rubbish.

* You talk about "FM Box" again, but you don't take into account that 25 years have passed since then. In the 90s we were all hungry for any material that had to do with Queen because we wanted more after Freddie's death and the release of "Made in heaven". That's why you have good memories of Freddie's box. If that same box set, THE SAME ONE, were released today, I have no doubt that you would spit on it, just as you have done on the "News of the world" and "The Miracle" box sets. You would despise it because you are full, you no longer have an appetite, your belly is full. The problem is not in Queen's releases but in your attitude when listening to those albums. What would you think if "The Miracle" box set had been released in 1999? Would you have the same lackadaisical opinion that you have now? I insist on what I said in a previous post. Free and unlimited music downloading has hurt all of us.



If we all do like you, who download all the Queen albums released since 2004, there would be no more releases because no one would buy them. Those of us who buy Queen albums are the ones who make it so that you can download them for free. Don't say those who buy a Queen album are stupid.

As it happens, I think Pepsi is entirely different to Coke! 😄

I really fail to hear AT. I've seen that video comparing TNCD and when listening to specific bits one after another, both accurately labeled as "original" and "autotuned", I could definitely tell. But while just listening to the song, I just can't tell it's been tampered. 

That being said, the new MTRnR mix is somewhat different. On my first listen I found both the drums and vocals much clearer. I feel this version "breathes" more, while the original was very muffled in comparison. I can actually believe this sound is what they had in mind when they first recorded the song.

Oh Lord! Why should we look at what's going on on Russian websites? Don't we have other problems? Creepy, in my opinion, said it all very clearly. If you think something is rubbish, then that's your right, but don't talk about it as if it were the ultimate truth. I don't remember Brian treating fans with disdain or something like that. Either you're distorting his words, or after surfing Russian websites, you take everything at face value.You can continue downloading from the internet and call it rubbish, but don't insult those who still buy the physical product and will be to do it until the end of the earth

I'm not sure this has been mentioned but Roger is going to be in the first episode of Jools Holland talking about the Queen I Box Set. Apparently he's going to sing John Lennon's Jealous Guy too.

To be fair, I haven't tasted either in over a decade... I always preferred Dr Pepper.

It's probably a matter of taste, but I feel more agressive rock songs like this one really benefit from more clarity for the instruments. I like my hard rock/metal drums mixed like Enter Sandman.

I'd miss the warmth if they tampered with songs that were definitely "warm" by design - like several of their songs with several layers of vocals and guitar. I would never call All Dead, All Dead "muffled" and definitely would've gone with "warm". On that note, unlike many people, I prefer the original The Long and Winding Road with Phil Spector's wall of sound, rather than the Let It Be... Naked version. The original takes me to a tiny, cozy room on a cold day, while the newer version takes me to a somewhat empty room with boring, geometric and monochromatic furniture.

It's a generational difference. A ton of young people can hear pitch correction even when they haven't heard an existing non-pitch corrected version for comparison, and they can hear AI music on first exposure as well.

Rick Beato has done many videos on his YouTube channel where he speaks about his kids and their friends and how this is commonplace now.

The kids are alright.

Oh moderators playing God again. Pull your head in. We might be guests here not "paying customers" but its far more entertaining to watch the critics than listen to mods trying to shapoe the discussion their way.

😄 It will count as Hot Space single too, is it from Action this Day?
And of course Day Oh from Live Aid or Live Magic

John Anthony, obviously the co-producer for the album.

I thought this was quite a common fact, no idea where it stemmed from but it seems to be a lot on websites and maybe even books. None of the official releases mention JA singing on it, but if someone can confirm where this was first mentioned, that would be great!
