The whole show was officially released in 2015 as the 'A Night At The Odeon' album and DVD/Blu-ray. The DVD and Blu-ray feature all tracks apart from the second encore, as the BBC camera crew stopped filming after the Jailhouse Rock Medley. A boxed set was also released, which contains the CD album, DVD and Blu-ray, plus an exclusive 12" single which features 'Now I'm Here', recorded at the soundcheck in the afternoon. The 2011 double disc reissues of 'Sheer Heart Attack' and 'Queen II' include audio tracks of 'Now I'm Here' and 'White Queen' respectively, while the 2011 iTunes LP's of 'Queen II' and 'Queen' feature bonus videos of 'Ogre Battle' and 'Son And Daughter'. Parts of 'Keep Yourself Alive', and edited versions of Big Spender and Jailhouse Rock Medley were released on the 'Rare Live' video, while the 'Greatest Hits In Japan' DVD includes 'The March Of The Black Queen'. Three bootlegs in the 'Top 100 Bootlegs' project feature material from this show, namely Xmas At The Beeb (16 tracks), Rhapsody In Red (15 tracks), and Rogues & Scandals (5 tracks). Between them they feature the full concert, although the Jailhouse Rock Medley is edited.
