Freddie at his BESTReviewed by Leif A. Ostgard, 2010-02-21
My brother is a HUGE Queen fan, I thought they were underrated in America too. I bought him this and he loved it and played it almost everyday for what seemed like forever, this is the only Queen live CD or DVD you ever need of them live. They play all there hits and the crowd eats them alive. Freddie cements his legacy thru this performance. One thing I liked about this is he doesn't wear some flaming outfit like he did back in earlier concerts. The spandex and nonsense. I think it takes away from how gifted the guy was because people will jsut focus on that and his lifestyle. None of the songs stray from the album unlike bands like Metallica have done, but the songs live sound better than the original album versions. One key moment is the banter between Freddie and the audience. He truly was a master at stagecraft and this clip has been replayed almost everytime they bring him up in media. His vocal dives followed by the crowds meager attempts...classic Freddie.

DJ JIMMYP LOVES THIS DVDReviewed by W. J. Perigny, 2009-12-18
I HAVE BEEN A DJ SINCE 1993 IN BOTH NYC AND FT LAUDERDALE. I RECENTLY DID A WORLD AIDS DAY EVENT AND DECIDED TO FEATURE THIS DVD. IF YOU DID NOT KNOW: FREDDIE MERCURY DIED OF AIDS. I ALWAYS LIKED QUEEN AND FREDDIE BUT I WAS BLOWN AWAY AT THE CRYSTAL CLARITY OF BOTH THE EDITING, VISUAL AND THE SOUND WAS ELECTRIFYING...IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS JUST RECORDED AND THE SONGS AND PERFORMANCES UNDLINED WHY QUEEN WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST BANDS OF ALL TIME. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS. AFTER TIME, YOU FORGET ALL OF THE GREAT SONGS THEY ACTUALLY DID, AND SOME, YOU WILL BE SURPRISED THAT IT WAS THEIR SONGS THAT OTHERS MADE FAMOUS..FOR INSTANCE: "THE SHOW MUST GO ON" USED AND COVERED IN THE MOVIE "MOULIN ROUGE".
A True DVDReviewed by John T. Martin, 2009-12-08
This is how a DVD should sound and be filmed. This is one of the best concerts I've ever seen on DVD. Queen at their best.
Are they still The Champions???Reviewed by Michael Kerjman, 2009-11-09
I like this DVD-both The Queen concert demonstrating pure British
nationalism as one could easy figured out from comments of disc TWO
providing interesting information on a band and its music.
This work is a real classic of a genre.
