Dimanche 31 Mars 1974 est une date historique dans l'histoire de la musique rock. Elle est maintenant dieponible en version multi-format, un enregistrement rare dans le mythique The Rainbow de Londres. Rares sont ceux qui auraient pu prédire qu'ils allaient devenir sans doute le groupe de rock le plus prospère du monde, bien que cela soit maintenant évident après ce magnifique concert.
Il va sortir en CD, vinyle , DVD standard ou Blu-ray disponibles en versions standard ou édition limitée spéciale ainsi que les formats numériques.
Ce concert a marqué le point culminant de la tournée du groupe, leur premiere en tête d'affiche - dans la foulée d'une tournée de soutien à MOTT le HOOPLE, à la fin de 1973, sur lequel ils étaient largement considérés comme ayant éclipsé l'affiche.
Le second album "Queen II" venait de sortir, beaucoup pensaient que le The Rainbow était trop ambitieux. Mais cela a été justifié les billets ont été rapidement épuisés , plus de 3000 places - pour £ 1,20 le billet!
Maintenant, 40 ans plus tard,
"Queen: Live At The '74 Rainbow" a finalement refait surface des archives, offrant un témoignage précieux de leur talent.
