The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert [DVD] [2013] [NTSC]

Product Information

The second half of the concert featured the three remaining Queen members – John Deacon (on bass), Brian May (on guitar) and Roger Taylor (on drums) – along with guest singers and guitarists, including Elton John, Roger Daltrey (of The Who), Tony Iommi (of Black Sabbath), Ian Hunter, David Bowie, Mick Ronson, James Hetfield (of Metallica), George Michael, Seal, Paul Young, Annie Lennox, Lisa Stansfield, Robert Plant (of Led Zeppelin), Joe Elliott and Phil Collen (of Def Leppard), Axl Rose and Slash (of Guns N' Roses), Liza Minnelli, and others. I was there at the front and one reason this never came out in full was the first half acts who were not happy with performance / sound.

Certain items can take longer to source than the estimated week, particularly during busy trading periods and may take longer to arrive at our warehouse.

But also the calmer moments with among others Paul Young ("Radio Ga Ga"), David Bowie and Eurythmics-singer Annie Lennox ("Under Pressure"), Elton John ("Bohemian Rhapsody", "The Show Must Go On") and very special George Michael ("'39", "These Are The Days Of Our Life", "Somebody To Love") do convince.

Roger Daltrey of The Who appears on stage accompanied by the opening of "Pinball Wizard" and his trademark microphone twirling.The "Cabaret" star singing the sports anthem "We Are the Champions" with a rock band in a stadium filled with 72,000 people? To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. This is a lovingly crafted fan-produced bootleg of the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert which took place at Wembley Stadium on April 20, 1992 in London, England.

The AIDS charity concert staged by the surviving members of Queen on April 20, 1992, at Wembley Stadium was an appropriate send-off for the band's late lead singer, Freddie Mercury, who had succumbed to the disease five months earlier.

The band later released in 2021 a re-mixed and re-mastered version of their performance as well as a rendition of Queen's Stone Cold Crazy with James Hetfield and Tony Iommi on the remastered box set of their album Metallica. U2 – " Until the End of the World" – beamed via satellite, pre-recorded on 18 April in Oakland, California. Just put a lot of old interview footage together with plenty of concert clips and boom, you got a "documentary".The only definitive version would be the full TV coverage, of which the only copies out there will be well worn VHS.

Perhaps the most moving moment of the night came next as the oddly named Seal (dressed in solid white) came out for "Who Wants To Live Forever", a haunting ballad that proved to be too much for some fans to bear (including myself. The bass line begins (damn Vanilla Ice for sampling it on "Ice Ice Baby" and ruining the song for some people) and they're off and running. As well as being great entertainment, the concert raised a huge and still growing sum of money for the Mercury Phoenix Trust, a charity formed at the time whose charter is the relief of suffering from AIDS throughout the world.

Absolutely FANTASTIC Service, bought and paid for on Friday morning and arrived on Saturday morning! They recorded just one more song after that, "No One But You", the only Queen song to have had no input from Freddie at all. Soul singer Lisa Stansfield strolled on stage with curlers in her hair and vaccum in hand (an obvious nod to the song's campy music video where the band infamously dressed in drag. Brian, Roger and John went on to finish Freddie's last recordings for the "Made In Heaven" album in 1995. The concert was produced for television by Ray Burdis, directed by David Mallet and broadcast live on television and radio to 76 countries around the world, with an audience of up to one billion.For me one of the key benefits of the release is the pop-up menu meaning you can go to any track from the opening bands (Guns and Roses Paradise City perhaps) to one of the Queen tracks (anything with George Michael - 39.
