Review
This is a live album from the Wembley ’86 concert during the Magic Tour. It is over 100 minutes of live quality Queen.
It has some quality tracks and medleys with some great audience participation.
This is my favourite Live Queen album! I could play this one about once per week and I often play along on the piano for the whole concert – I have the set-list learned off at this stage!
This Concert was also released on DVD, with multi-angle scenes on certain songs.
About Queen Live at Wembley Stadium ’86
The amazing concert was recorded live on Saturday 12, July 1986 during the ‘Magic Tour’ at Wembley Stadium in London, England. The album was released on 26 May 1992, with a companion Queen Live at Wembley Stadium DVD released in June 2003.
Queen designed a massive scale stage which needed numerous trucks to transport. The stage was so big in fact that it went around 3 or 4 feet bigger than the stadium could cater for and the redesign only finished just before soundcheck on the first day of the concert. While this stage was being taken down on trucks elsewhere were delivering another stage to the next venue; so at all stages one stage was being dismantled while another was being constructed in a rolling flow for the concert.
Brian May said “Being back home in London playing two sell-out nights was such a big, big occasion for us. None of us realized that this would be almost the last time we played together.”
The Magic Tour was Queen’s final tour with the legendary Freddie Mercury. The two Wembley concerts stand as a fitting testament to one of rock’s greatest frontman at the height of his powers.
