In November 1981, British Rock/Pop band Queen
took the stage at the Montreal Forum, in Quebec (Canada), for a concert.
From the first notes of their fast version of
We Will Rock You to the last notes of the recorded version of God Save the
Queen, Freddie Mercury and his cohorts kept the spectators on the edge of their
seats with hit after hit. Also included is the band’s performance at Live Aid,
in 1985, where they gave an absolute clinic on how to steal the show from a
loaded cast of artists.
In my book, Freddie Mercury remains one of
the best front men in rock history. It is a true pleasure to see him and his
bandmates at work here at two separate moments in their career. They were great
artists and this video is a wonderful way to see them do what they do best.
