5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Live Album, 10 Oct 2004
By D. Penn (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This consists of a combination of tracks, some from Brian's first album ('Back to the Light'), some Queen tracks, and a wonderful cover version of Rainbow's 'Since You've Been Gone'.

Most of the other obvious 'comments' to make about the album have already been made, (how Bri's actually perfectly capable as a frontman, but a weak voice occasionally, etc...), but suffice to say that if you buy this you won't be disappointed. Wonderful music, great band (the late Cozy Powell gives some superb drumming) and a, er, (running out of superlatives here...) brilliant atmosphere.

Best track - probably the 10 minute concert rendition of 'Resurrection', with a snatch of Bohemian Rhapsody, and a great percussion solo in the middle.

All in all, a great concert.

Please vote for this review if you found it helpful. Thanks.

5.0 out of 5 stars He Was Born to Rock You!, 27 Mar 2002
By M. D. Rathbone (Runcorn, Cheshire - UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
A must for Queen fans with a more than generous helping of great live Queen classics performed by the man who was at the heart of their engine room live, alongside the best of his "Back to the Light" album tracks.

Worth the money just to hear the greatest Queen song that never was - "Resurrection" - and the battle between guitar and drums as Brian wanders off into a lengthy guitar solo. He's not too comfortable at the microphone but he's sure at home with a guitar in his hands!

His own Queen trademarks are here, within songs such as "Tie Your Mother Down" and "Now I'm Here" plus versions of later Queen hits "Too Much Love..." and "Headlong" and he does Freddie proud with his solo version of "Love of My Life".

4.0 out of 5 stars WOW!, 5 Sep 2001
By A Customer
All I can say is WOW!

This live album is spectacular. Brian proves himself to be more than just an incredible lead guitar player and, although his voice is weak occasionally (touring is tiring stuff!), he shows the world that he is more than capable of being the frontman!

Stand-out tracks are: "Love Of My Life" (in which Brian does an exceptional imitation of Freddie's high vocal line), "Since You've Been Gone" (a genuinely great cover of the Rainbow classic - with the added distinction of having the original drummer on it - the late, great Cozy Powell), and a ten-minute rendition of Brian's greatest solo song, "Resurrection", which features an outstanding drum solo by Powell and what can only be described as a mesmerising guitar solo, arguably the greatest solo ever recorded by May (matter of opinion, obviously!)

His band consists of great, established musicians: Spike Edney on keyboards (who was Queen's keyboard player on tour in the mid-eighties), Neil Murray on bass (Black Sabbath), Jamie Moses on guitar/vocals (a well-renowned session man), and the afore-mentioned Cozy Powell on drums, not to mention the two female backing singers, Cathy Preston and Shelley Porter.

This is truly a live album to behold in all it's glory, let down only very slightly by Brian's occasionally weak lead vocals. Buy it and hear the world's greatest guitar player rock you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Freddie/Cozy tribute
If you like Queen this is a must. There are Queen songs and excellent tributes to Freddie and Cozy as well as original tracks which would and could have graced any Queen album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely cracking gig with superb musicianship & songs!
Well, what can I say. A little-known gem of an album featuring one of the best rock/pop guitarists in Brian May. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars What can I say?
Ok, Freddie isnt there on stage, but he is in spirit. Brian May, as usual, at his best!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, despite the absence of the rest of queen.
After queen broke up, I was unsure whether or not the solo career of Brian May would be a success. Some would say it hasn't been, however just because he is not in the lime light... Read more
