Customer Reviews


The Queen: Rock Montreal & Live Aid Blu-ray is a fantastic film that captures the dynamic energy that arises when the queen was played in concert. I Live Aid Live Aid (Viewed 4 Disc set off set) and that was one of those shows that are seminal in the history of live rock on (next to Santana and Sly & The Family Stone and Janis Joplin at Woodstock and Monterey) that is included in this set, as well.

Montreal concert is just great and had a lot to do withCharismatic, talented and flamboyant frontman Freddie Mercury over. Mercury sings, plays guitar, piano and microphone and prancing around on stage as he whips a crowd into a frenzy! He went through some minor changes costume, in true diva fashion, finally appears in hot pants and bare feet. Gotta love Freddy!

The picture quality is excellent and the camera is excellent. Even on the "Live Aid" set, the image is pretty strong but not yethas used the phenomenon of "microphany (Forward stripes horizontal stripes in some parts of the film on some cameras, close-up during appearances at Live Aid in the United Kingdom were present) describe, but do not interfere with vision.

Queen played two concerts and was close to Mercury in great achievements and her beautiful voice to promote public Sing-A-Long.

Here is an arrest of the instrument:

* 25:11 minutes - LIVE AID SET -
includesPerformance of "Is This The World We created" which was carried out in the night. I do not remember if this included in the DVD box set of Live Aid was, but it's a great performance as well.

* 10.56 minutes to watch - LIVE AID REHEARSAL
behind the scenes at Queen tests and an interview. It 's funny because the reporter states that the show Queen for their "fantastic live performances with light, unusual objects and scenery is well known," etc., and asks, "because they are not able to do so,Live Aid, have the same effect / success? 'Well, the queen more than proved it did not need props to blow away the audience.

* 6:46 minutes - 1982 interview of PM MAGAZINE
The picture quality is grainy and the volume is low, but it's nice to see this old show. This is essentially a profile of the band and an intro for each member.

Blu-Ray comes with a small booklet with color photos and credits.

If you liverock concerts, then this is definitely a must. Will not be disappointed, and is the best thing to actually being there. I could also recommend Woodstock: 3 Days of Peace & Music Director's Cut (40th Anniversary Ultimate Collector's Edition Amazon Exclusive Bonus Disc) and the aforementioned Live Aid (4 Disc Set), which not only movies big concert, but also documentaries on likely the two greatest concerts of the last century.
