Live Albums by Queen

Queen are a group that divides opinion quickly on whether they were ever any good or whether they started well but then went off or they started well and got better.

Studio Albums by Queen

In my opinion, Queen’s studio albums have always been patchy but the best are Sheer Heart Attack, A Night At The Opera and A Day At The Opera.

1973 – Queen
1974 – Queen II
1974 – Sheer Heart Attack
1975 – A Night at the Opera
1976 – A Day at the Races
1977 – News of the World
1978 – Jazz
1980 – The Game
1980 – Flash Gordon
1982 – Hot Space
1984 – The Works
1986 – A Kind of Magic
1989 – The Miracle
1991 – Innuendo
1995 – Made in Heaven

They were a great live band and Freddie Mercury was an astonishing front man and singer who commanded attention when he was on stage. This means that there should be some great live albums by Queen.

The Missing Live Albums by Queen

I have always wanted to hear a properly produced live alum by Queen from the tours to promote A Night At The Opera and A Day At The Races. That’s when Queen had most impact on me and when I saw them live.

On Christmas Eve 1975 when Bohemian Rhapsody was the #1 single, Queen played live at the Hammersmith Odeon in London and the show was broadcast by the BBC.

Live At Wembley is a souvenir of the last tour Queen did with Freddie Mercury in 1986 to promote the A Kind Of Magic album.

It’s sad to think that the group who had stolen the show at the Live Aid concert, the year before weren’t to tour again for nineteen years (2005) when they had Paul Rogers as the lead vocalist.

Their last concert was at Knebworth on 9th August 1986 and Mercury was diagnosed with HIV/AIDS the following year and died 24th November 1991.
