Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
A complete concert of one of the best bands live, Queen Live at Wembley Stadium is the record of one remarkable summer night in 1986. This really was history in the making: no-one, except possibly Freddie Mercury, could have guessed that the band would only ever play two more concerts in the UK and would never return to Wembley.

Director Gavin Taylor's omnipresent cameras, including stunning aerial views, also remind us of the glories of the now-defunct stadium and its signature towers, such a perfect venue for Queen's epic staging, with their massive video screen and dazzling light show.

The second night playing to a capacity crowd saw the band at the peak of their form, riding high on the popular success of their recent string of hits: "A Kind of Magic", "I Want to Break Free", "Radio Ga Ga" and "One Vision" all feature here alongside earlier favourites from "Seven Seas of Rhye" through "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "We Will Rock You" to "Another One Bites the Dust" and "Under Pressure". In short, a veritable greatest hits collection--all performed with larger-than-life gusto, boundless exuberance and impeccable musicianship. In a period when most new bands were content to mime along to weedy synthesised backing tracks, Queen were simply bigger, bolder and a whole lot more fun than anyone else. Freddie Mercury's extraordinary stage presence is likely to remain forever unsurpassed.

On the DVD: Queen Live at Wembley Stadium is a superb memento of this memorable night. Disc 1 contains the entire Saturday gig (almost two hours) remastered in vivid DTS 5.1 or PCM Stereo. The second disc collects both contemporary and brand-new material, including new interviews with Brian May and Roger Taylor. "A Beautiful Day" is a good documentary made at the time. More exciting is the wealth of unseen footage, both from the Friday night show and the band in rehearsal. There are "Queen Cam" views of each band member, and a photo gallery. Most poignant is a time-lapse short, "Wembley Towers", showing the philistine destruction of these national monuments. It's a fitting epitaph for this great live band. --Mark Walker

5.0 out of 5 stars Queen at their best! Wonderful!, 17 Jun 2002
By H. Trivass "snuffle007" - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
As a huge Queen fan I love all of Queens music, but I never had the opportunity to go and see them perform live as I was only 5 when their Magic Tour came to Wembley! So, when I was older and I found this video I just had to have it! The magic of the concert can be felt through the TV! It was a wonderful performance where they performed some of their best classic songs and some new songs (such as Who wants to live forever from Highlander) and the atmosphere in the stadium is electric! Queen rock the crowd like no-one else has or ever will! With 100's of thousands of people singing and clapping along to "WIll will Rock you" and "Radio Ga Ga", they literally blew the audience away. Its also an opportunity to see the legend that was Freddie Mercury show what made him so popular! The music is great, the sound in wonderful, you never miss a thing, the direction is some of the best for concerts. Almost as if you were there at the time! If only....

5.0 out of 5 stars A Completely Live Magical Experience, 16 Dec 2000
When I first watched this video I thought WOW, because to me watching Freddie playing a LIVE! gig was absolutely amazing. I only started listening to Queen in the late 80's when I was 8, and I thought there was something about their music which made it stand out. A lot of people out there talk about putting 101% into all you do, good old Freddie must have been putting 200% into this Live act as you could see the beads of sweat gushing out him. If you have to get any Quen video then this is it. It's an absolute must for all you Queen fans out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arguably their best performance with all the favourites, 17 Jul 2004
By A Customer
whether you are an avid Queen fan, or simply a fan of good music, this Concert was quite simply the biggest and best show that Queen had ever produced. All of the most popular releases are here up until 1986 (when the concert took place). Status Quo were the supporting act so this should tell you what kind of event this was. Well worth buying. In terms of the concert, it is a magical gig....

3.0 out of 5 stars Cut-down concert...
I was disappointed when I purchased this. Having listened to the double CD over and over again, this only shows a tiny percentage of what the concert really was. Read more
