You mean the Amsterdam footage? That's just from either 1 or 2 cameras filming pickups for a new reel. Doesn't exist in full. Has what there is been released? Tbh I think it's shocking / remarkable how little video footage there is of the band at its peak yeah, that's all that was filmed by a company to be shown in dutch cinemas at the time as a "News Reel"

Not to burst any bubbles... but, that performance of Roll Over Lay Down is actually from Stoke-On-Trent the following day. The only tracks released from Kursaal are; Roadhouse Blues and Gerdundula (Soundcheck) I've not seen anyone mention the Reading Festival 25th August 1973 show Wow, I never knew that, cheers! Probably should've read the sleeve properly Just had a look at the setlist of Reading on setlist.fm - yes I'd love that! Such an early (if setlist fm is right, the first) performance of Caroline, take my money! The sleeve actually doesn't detail where the performances are from. The concerts are only mentioned in the credits at the bottom of the sleeve, "Recorded at the Kursaal, Southend 1.3.1975 and Trentham Gardens, Stoke-On-Trent 2.3.1975 on the Rolling Stones Mobile"

Anything up until the HT tour really is what is really lacking in terms of live goods.

Yep. Recorded for Gaff Management using the Ronnie Lane Mobile Studio. First performance of Caroline and last proper recording of Is It Really Me / Gotta Go Home Sounds appealing! There's lots of stuff to be released! Good!

A box-set with the 4 gigs from '75, a box-set with the 3 gigs from the Apollo '76 and the Hammersmith '79 gig. It will be an instant purchase, don't mind for christmas or birthdays. Also, any gig from the '80s, '90s and 00s will be wellcome, with special interest in the army, rock 'til you drop and Thirsty Work tours. The full Tokyo Quo? Meh, it could be interesting, but i'll prefer the three shows from the Apollo. It Deep Purple can do it with the Made in Japan, why not Quo? (well...Yes, I know, money and not so many fans as Deep Purple) You'll be interest in the upcoming deluxe editions then... I won't spoil too much, but one of the tours you mentioned is having some unreleased audio - released. Oh! Universal will do another round of deluxe editions? So the sales from the last 3 deluxes are good? Nice to hear that. Yep. Recorded for Gaff Management using the Ronnie Lane Mobile Studio. First performance of Caroline and last proper recording of Is It Really Me / Gotta Go Home To be honest, just listened to the audience bootleg once, and never remember that DWMT is the bonus track of Piledriver. Maybe it could be interesting to hear the first time of Caroline with good sound, but, for my money, I'll prefer anything else. Talking about Reading. Wasn't most of the 78 festival filmed? I remember reading some discusions about it, but, of course, nothing from Quo.

Was that recorded? That'd be fantastic! Maybe paired with Reading '78 it could make a very nice package, Quo at Reading in the '70s. Yep. Recorded for Gaff Management using the Ronnie Lane Mobile Studio. First performance of Caroline and last proper recording of Is It Really Me / Gotta Go Home Crikey! I just checked setlist.fm as you were posting & noticed that they've got Someone's Learning in the set list for that gig. The set had really evolved in just a few years. I notice they also list Quo as being at the festival in '72, if I'd previously been aware of this then I must have forgotten, I don't suppose that was recorded(?) & what about their appearance at the Great Western festival in '72?

They didn't headline at Reading in '73 I don't think. Rod & The Faces were the main event. But I guess that's academic really. Although it could have a bearing on who has the rights to the original tapes.

As the veterans of this message board will know that the Hammersmith Odeon, 26th June 1979 show exists. Few people have mentioned the Glasgow '76 shows. Would people buy a full release of all 3 nights? released for the first time, as the actual release is a compilation of audio from all 3 nights. Are you absolutely sure that all three nights were recorded? I know it says so on the cover, but if I remember correctly, Lancaster has denied this. I think he said something along the lines of "It's one night straight through, why would we pay for three nights?"

I think he said something along the lines of "It's one night straight through, why would we pay for three nights?" That's possibly true but it seems daft playing for 3 nights - specifically for a live album - and not record all 3. Why not just play for the one night? The other two nights might have since been scrubbed or binned but I'd have thought they'd have recorded them. Then again, knowing Quo, it wouldn't surprise me I always thought they listened to all three and chose the first night as the best of the bunch. Although maybe adding little odds and sods from the other nights.

Speaking from a position of no relevant knowledge whatsoever, I'd have thought that once the commitment is made to make the recording at all then the incremental costs to record all three nights probably don't add on all that much. However, somebody who knows anything at all about these things may well have a better idea.

A couple of tracks from Reading 73 were on a compilation album of the festival that I had back in the day. (Don't waste my time and Andy Bown's pre Quo version of Long legged Linda?)If the full gig still exists then yes count me in. Same goes for Tokyo Quo and the other Apollo nights! Don't tease me, if it exists, release it! and I'll buy it! (on multiple formats probably!)

Yeah I'd have thought if you went to the bother of hiring the recording equipment and setting it up for one night, you would be as well keeping it set up for the other two. Plus you would be putting all your eggs in one basket if you just recorded the one night. All manner of things could go wrong, either with the recording equipment or the performance.

A proper recording of a concert during the American or Australian tours in 1973 or 1974 would be nice. I have never heard recordings from those tours.
