Queen Bohemian Rhapsody DVD Update – Full Live Aid Recreation as bonus footage

by Paul Cashmere on January 3, 2019

in News

Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ movie will be released digitally on January 22 and on DVD and Blu-Ray on February 12 and will include the complete recreation of the Live Aid performance, only seen in part in the movie.

Bohemian Rhapsody was the 13th biggest movie of 2018 in the USA according to Box Office revenue.

While the movie is totally inaccurate in its telling of the Queen story, which in itself is amazing considering Brian May and Roger Taylor were executive producers, it does give an incredible overview of the legacy of Queen.

The movie makes out that Queen reformed for Live Aid which is totally untrue. They had been on a world tour for a year prior to Live Aid and were in peak shape for the performance. They even toured Australia a few months before Live Aid.

Here is the complete original Queen Live Aid performance from 1985:

Full DVD details:

Bohemian Rhapsody is an enthralling celebration of Queen, their music, and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury, who defied stereotypes and convention to become one of history’s most beloved entertainers. Following Queen’s meteoric rise, their revolutionary sound and Freddie’s solo career, the film also chronicles the band’s reunion, and one of the greatest performances in rock history.

The Damned released the first ever UK punk single, “New Rose” off album Damned, Damned, Damned, in 1976, and were often overshadowed by their English punk counterparts. Now in their late sixties and still touring world-wide, featuring the original line up of Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, Rat Scabies and Paul Gray, they are the ones having the last laugh and have left their old rivals for dead, in certain respects, quite literally!
