"Queen the greatest rock band ever, steal the show at Live Aid"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This blu-ray consists of the 1981 Rock Montreal concert and the 1985 Live Aid concert. Being a Queen fan for over the past 30 years, I must admit I am bias towards the greatest rock band of all time. No singer will ever replace the late Freddie Mercury as the lead singer of Queen and this blu-ray shows at great lengths the true talents of Queen.

The Rock Montreal concert is a full length concert with Queen playing some of their greatest hits. Including, We Will Rock You, Bohemian Rhapsody, Somebody to Love, Crazy Thing Called Love, Love Of My Life, Another One Bites The Dust and We Are The Champions to name a few.

Although the crowd interaction is not there compared to most Queen concerts, it is still a great show and an enjoyable insight into how Queen performed live throughout their career.

1985 Live Aid concert saw Queen be reborn to a new fan base and reignite their existing fan base, as they stole the show. The concert does reflect how Queen and the crowd appreciate each other and interact with each other. Although they only belt out 7 tracks, they gave 110% and you can truly see the charismatic, flamboyant and talented front man Freddie Mercury at his best.

If you enjoy true live rock concerts then this blu-ray is definitely a must.

The only flaw to me is the interference from the speakers during the Live Aid concert which causes phase lines to appear throughout some shots during the concert. However, taking into account that these concerts are nearly 30 years old, it is over a great reproduction.

The blu-ray also comes with some great bonuses as well. They are great concerts to watch time and time again. They may even entice you to drag the old vinyl records out of the cupboard. Enjoy..

"classic band,pix & sound like new"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

queen live at wembley has always been my favorite dvd concert of this classic band…until now! this bluray thanks to the original 35mm film is a beauty to behold and the dts audio is as good as anything that's been recorded recently. sure you've got to put up with freddies stupid hat and his ball breaker shorts near the end of proceedings but the overall concert is worth whatever other shortcomings you might find personally. get this,it's worth every cent and turn it up loud 'cos queen will rock you…period!

Description

In November 1981, with "Under Pressure" topping the charts in the UK, Queen arrived in Montreal following dates in Japan and their record-breaking tour of Latin America. It was to be the only concert by Queen that was ever shot on film. Always a great live band, with arguably the greatest frontman of all time in Freddie Mercury, they excelled themselves with the cameras rolling. The picture has been digitally restored from the original film and the sound has been newly mixed and mastered for DTS Surround Sound and PCM Stereo from the original multitrack tapes.
