This seemed the perfect time for Queen
to release a live record. The first six years in their career saw the
release of seven studio albums - all respectable, some incredible.
Wisely they go for a double album, and it's packed with ninety minutes
of what was obviously an incredible concert by an incredible band.
Most everything is here that should be, and there are no obnoxious
covers of other people's material - a good thing since it's obviously
not needed. It's from a few different shows, but you would think you
were listening to one show from start to finish. This is what I think a
live record should be, and Queen delivers in a big, big way. They would
one day release a live album from every tour following this one after
Freddie Mercury died - but that always seemed as a way to cash in on the
name as opposed to being sincere. Perhaps this is why this one is my
favorite....
