Original 2011 South African pressing of “QUEEN Greatest Hits I II III The Platinum Collection” 3 CD. The CD set is brand new, in mint condition and sealed. Includes 3 remastered CDs which are housed in a super jewel cases. 2011 Remastered versions.
What once seemed Queen’s greatest liabilities–a preening flamboyance and pompous, overwrought theatricality–have ironically become their most enduring charms in a grey, postmodern pop-music landscape. While it eschews the glammy, pre-punk hard rock of live faves such as “Stone Cold Crazy” and “Tie Your Mother Down” for the band’s more quirky club-beat string of latter-day hits , this 51-track triple-CD anthology goes a long way toward documenting the true dimensions of the band’s music and fame. It even includes some solo work by Brian May and Freddie Mercury, whose duet on “Barcelona” with diva Montserrat Caballé transcends boundaries of both time and genre. A previously unreleased live performance of “The Show Must Go On” featuring Elton John on vocals is also included.
