About

Take yourself back to the ‘70s and imagine hearing the majesty of Queen pouring out of the speakers for the first time. <i>Queen on Air</i> does just that, collecting six BBC radio sessions from 1973-1977—all meticulously restored. Gems include different takes on classic album tracks, a completely reworked studio version of “We Will Rock You,” and an alternate version of their debut single “Keep Yourself Alive.” It’s an incredible snapshot of a band showing its work in the quest for icon status.
