Memorabilia includes three posters and a 60-page book! Queen's landmark 1977 album. Originally launched in October 1977. 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. 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. 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.

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. The third CD in the package. Features a feast of previously released but hard-to-find versions of.
