Description: THIS IS OUR LAST SET FOREVER AND IT STARTS WITH THE COLLECTOR OUT OF PRINT 40TH ANNIVERSARY BOX SET EDITION OF NEWS TO THE WORLD 40th Anniversary Edition 3CD + LP + DVD box setIncludes unique "Raw Sessions" CD — a newly-created alternative version of the original album!Memorabilia includes three posters and a 60-page book!Queen's landmark 1977 album News of the World returns, marking its 40th Anniversary!Originally launched in October 1977, News of the World is one of Queen's biggest selling albums of all time. It opens with two of the band's most indestructible worldwide hits, the Brian May-penned "We Will Rock You" and Freddie Mercury's "We Are The Champions," monumental stadium anthems which remain a staple of major sporting events all around the world to this day. With songs written by all four band members, NOTW, Queen's sixth album, set a new standard in stylistic diversity, from Roger Taylor's proto-punk blast of "Sheer Heart Attack" to the salacious funk-rock groove workout "Get Down Make Love," to the fragrant tropical calypso-pop "Who Needs You." News of the World also features the hit "Spread Your Wings," the epic rock saga "It's Late" and Freddie's wistfully romantic "My Melancholy Blues."The new package includes the original album on CD, plus two more CDs of recently unearthed out-takes and rarities from the band's archives, one of which is a newly created "alternative" version of the whole album — Raw Sessions.For many Queen devotees, this Raw Sessions CD will be the most intriguing component of the new release. Mined deep from long-vaulted studio multi-track tapes, this extraordinary parallel album brings to light never-before-heard alternative versions of each of the album's 11 tracks. Every lead vocal is different, as are most of the lead guitar parts and a great many other instrumental details. Here we experience "We Are The Champions" anew, with many unfamiliar vocal and instrumental elements, and for the first time at its full-recorded length rather than the edited 1977 album cut. Here also is the chance to discover peak era Freddie Mercury vocals on a track that nobody outside Queen's inner circle has heard him sing before at all - Brian May's "All Dead, All Dead."The original album version features May himself on vocals. Roger Taylor's "Sheer Heart Attack" can be heard with its original long-lost guitar intro and uncut ending. Taylor's other song, "Fight From The Inside," is more remarkable in that we hear his demo vocal worked on in his home studio in preparation for the next sessions, "homework" that all of the band members would regularly carry out. As a point of note, Taylor plays all instruments on these two recordings, except for some lead guitar. In this age of digital leaks and obsessive fan culture, there is already great excitement that these recordings are, in 2017, truly New to the World.The third CD in the package, Bonus Tracks, features a feast of previously released but hard-to-find versions of News of the World tracks recorded in concert, for radio shows, or in alternate mixes. Included is the band's entire five-song final live session recorded for BBC Radio in October 1977, seven live performances of NOTW songs, plus rare backing tracks and instrumentals of the Queen classics "We Will Rock You," "We Are The Champions," "Spread Your Wings," "Get Down, Make Love" and "Fight From The Inside." Also on this third disc is the seldom-heard U.S. radio edit of "It's Late," making its belated CD debut, and the rowdy stomper "Feelings Feelings," which was recorded during the original NOTW sessions but not included on the final album. Another outstanding feature of this weighty 40th Anniversary box is another first — a pure analogue re-cut of the original vinyl LP, direct from the unmastered analogue master mix tapes. This exceptional album collector's piece is presented in a facsimile original sleeve. There is also a rich selection of NOTW related memorabilia including three posters and a 60-page book of images, mostly previously unseen.The package is completed with a brand new one-hour DVD documentary, "Queen: The American Dream," created from backstage material filmed during Queen's 1977 USA News of the World tour. In November that year, Queen embarked on another headlining U.S. tour. The highly respected British radio and TV presenter Bob Harris, complete with full film crew, followed their journey as part of a proposed documentary that has remained incomplete and unreleased — until now. The crew had unlimited access to the band on and off stage, in the recording studio and during rehearsals. This one-hour documentary includes superb live footage of Queen at the Houston Summit in December. We also see moments from the birth of "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions," songs that would both earn a place in the Grammy Hall of Fame. "Queen: The American Dream" is a fascinating behind-the-scenes insight into a young British band at a creative peak, defying the odds as they take the U.S.A. by storm. For casual fans and Queen connoisseurs alike, the new NOTW package, with its feast of extra material, is manna from Heaven — a bumper haul of buried treasure from a world-beating band in its prime.
