~I CLAIM NO OWNERSHIP OF THE FOOTAGE USED HERE!~
Using iMovie, I edited the footage + audio from (whatever circulates of) the two legendary nights at the Earls Court Arena in London. Something like the official "Rainbow '74" release, where the best of both nights are used to create something dynamic (and maybe more releasable). The quality is inconsistent, but this is meant to be a demonstration anyway (and a test of my editing chops).
Frankly, I'm proud of this edit (but that doesn't mean it's perfect).
00:00 - Tie Your Mother Down
03:44 - Ogre Battle
08:37 - Killer Queen
11:13 - Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy
PART 2: • Queen at Earls Court '...
Few Notes:
-1st night's "TYMD" is sourced from the Chief Mouse's 2018 restoration (downloaded off of Simon Christenson's RU-vid). The rest of the footage from the 1st night is from the older Pittrek restoration (downloaded off Chinwonder2).
-All footage from the 2nd night were from Chinwonder2's compilation (the one exception being "Killer Queen").
-You may noticed some instances where the audio is swapped with a different night - either to fill in gaps, to fit certain clips that worked better, or 'cause certain parts sounded better on a different night. They're my attempts of "overdubs".
-For extra sparkles, "GOFLB" (and the tail end of "Lap of Gods") features an audio matrix between the soundboard and the (lower-quality) audience recording. It was the only song that I could get away with such a matrix.
Tell me what you think of this edit. All feedback is appreciated.
