Hungarian Rhapsody: Queen Live in Budapest - Starring Queen (Blu-ray/2CD -11/2012)

Fans of the hard-rock group Queen will be delighted to discover this well-produced concert video, featuring the foursome in their July 27, 1986 performance in Budapest. Aside from an overview of the stadium they are to perform in and shots of them being deliriously received by fans, the vast bulk of the film is devoted to the performance of their best-known songs. The cameramen and producers are evidently fans, as reviewers noted that they fell in skillfully with the band's performance. Though there are no interviews, the film does include some brief shots of each of the band members as they play the tourist in the town.
On July 27, 1986, Queen performed the largest-ever stadium concert at the Népstadion in Budapest in front of 80,000 ecstatic fans. The concert was part of the famed Magic Tour, which was the last time the band toured with lead singer Freddie Mercury. Now, this original concert film has been remastered in high definition and features many of Queen's favorite tracks Bohemian Rhapsody, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, I Want To Break Free and We Are The Champions. With three years to go before the fall of the Berlin Wall, this was the first Western rock concert performed in a stadium behind the then Iron Curtain. It was of such significance to the Hungarian authorities and film industry that a group of the country's top film cameramen and technicians were brought together to film it for posterity. / Bonus Feature:
A Magic Year, a 27 minute feature looking at Queen during this time period.
