Search - Queen :: Queen (40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition)

Queen's 40th anniversary kicks into gear with the release of expanded editions of their first 5 studio albums. Chockfull of classics, each lp has been meticulously remastered for this release by Bob Ludwig and includes an additional disc of rarites, many of which have never before been available in any form. The Queen album shows off the rich variety of genres the band traffics in to this very day - from heavy rock to Tin Pan Alley theatricality. This album includes their hits "Keep Yourself Alive", "Liar", "Modern Times Rock `n Roll" and "Seven Seas of Rhye". The bonus disc to "Queen" includes extraordinarily rare bonuses - 5 tracks dating from 1971 thought until very recently to be lost to the world - Queen's first studio recordings, the very demos from which both a recording career and this album sprang. The source? A single acetate 12" discovered in Brian May's personal archives and reproduced here for your listening pleasure. Plus the original version of "Mad The Swine" as originally written and recorded for the band's first album, revived and completed by the band for this release.
