--NOTE: I realize this is a huge file (6.34gb) but feel it is better to offer this as an uncompressed DVD rip complete with the extra features. I will soon seed a "Home Theatre Quality" 1 GB DiVx rip that will be a quicker download. I would appreciate it if you keep this seed going as it eats up my upload bandwidth. After I see its well seeded, I'll move on to seeding Steely Dan's "Aja" Classic Albums feature.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
With the release of "A Night at the Opera" in 1975, Queen catapulted into the rock 'n' roll mainstream and broke new ground with the wildly inventive single "Bohemian Rhapsody." This installment of the Classic Albums series examines the creative process behind the landmark recording, featuring interviews with late singer Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, drummer Roger Taylor and the album's original producer, Roy Thomas Baker.
HIGHLIGHTS
* A frustrated Freddie Mercury taking out his aggressions lyrically on their previous management in the opening song "Death on Two Legs". They had been taken advantage of financially previous to this album.
* A tale of the very shy bassist John Deacon who contributed very few songs in his career but they were critical and outstanding ones to the group. Brian and Roger tell of how he sheepishly introduces "You're My Best Friend" to them and Freddie. Of course they loved it and Freddie making it a classic vocal with John on keyboards.
* "'39". A "great" Brian May song that he revisits in great detail and sings in a new full acoustic version and in some original archived footage. This has always been one of my favorite songs by anyone but never realized it was about space travel. Now I know why it has some similarities to the Moody Blues "To Our Children's Children's Children" album also about space travel a few years earlier in 1970.
* "Love of My Life". Also one of my personal favorites and an incredibly beautiful song. This was a song Freddie had written about a "woman" he loved which it also explains in pictures. Not only is there some great footage on this but also some great bonus footage of him (appears to be at Wembley where he sings acoustically to a few 100 thousand people. What an incredible performance and performer! A MUST SEE! Also a touching new acoustic version by Brian on this track too.
* In depth details on "Bohemian Rhapsody". Music video footage, sound board separations and great archival live performances.
