Queen

By December 26, 1979, when Queen performed at the Hammersmith Odeon, they were riding high on the success of their album "Jazz," which had been released just a couple of months earlier in November. This was a fascinating period for the band as they were blending genres and pushing musical boundaries with tracks like “Bike Ride” and “Fat Bottomed Girls.” Interestingly, this Hammersmith show was part of their “Crazy Tour,” showcasing the group’s lively stage presence. The performance captured in this newly remastered video highlights Queen's electrifying energy, not to mention the iconic Freddie Mercury, who was in his prime, dazzling fans with his flamboyant style and vocal prowess. So, there's something magical about revisiting this historic live set—the energy, the costumes, and the raw talent—it's a time capsule of music history that truly showcases Queen at their best.
