The first-ever collector's edition of Queen's history from the 70's to Freddie's last performance in 1988, featuring rare live recordings and videos. The CD contains 48 tracks in chronological order from the earliest soundboard live performance in 1973 to Freddie's last recorded live performance in 1988. The compilation includes full versions of “Utsuro na Sunday” and “Mustafa,” which are rarely performed live, and rare cover versions of John Lennon's “Imagine,” Led Zeppelin's “Immigrant Song,” Elton John's “Saturday Night is My Life,” the Stones' familiar “Mannish Boy,” “Not Fade Away,” and many more. The DVD is a compilation of live recordings of Queen's history, not only the “Rare Lives” but also the “Rare Live” DVDs, which were once known as video works, plus additional live footage that has never been recorded. The DVD contains a revised version of “Rare Live,” which was previously known as a video work, with the addition of previously unrecorded live footage for a total of more than two hours of greatly increased content. This is a highly recommended collector's item that combines Queen's rare live recordings and videos in an expanded edition with the latest editing!

[SELLING POINT]
CD1 contains rare live recordings from the 1970s. Father to Son” and ‘Ooga Battle’ were performed live in London in 1973, the earliest soundboard live performance in existence at the time of their debut, in an unfinished version with partially different lyrics. Hang Man” is a previously unreleased song that was only performed live.

CD2 contains rare live recordings from the 80's. “Mustafa” is a live performance of the song “Mustafa” itself. The live performance of “Mustafa” is a rare full version. Need Your Lovin' Tonight” and ‘Rock It’ are also rare soundboard recordings. Imagine” from 1980 and ‘Life is Real’ from 1982, which were performed at John Lennon's memorial service, have only a few live recordings. Led Zeppelin's “Immigrant Song” was performed with a short improvisation, which is rare and has only been recorded once live. And “It's in Everyone of Us” from 1988, Freddie's last performance after his last show in Nebworth as Queen, is the only soundboard recording of the performance with Cliff Richard. Some of the soundboard recordings are only available as audience recordings, but some of the familiar live soundboard recordings such as London '73 and Hammersmith '79 are remastered with different edits and mixes, and Wembley '86 is the original live recording without overdubs. 

The DVD includes footage from “Rare Live,” a film that was once known as a video work but is now out of print and hard to find. The DVD is a revised and expanded edition of the live footage, which is not rare nowadays, and includes some edits that can only be seen here, although some of them are dated incorrectly. This is the latest Expanded Edition.
