MASTERWORKS
Regular price ¥4,600
News of the World”, the sixth in the ‘Expanded Collector's Edition’ series of Queen's ultimate in-depth album studies, is now available as a 2CD & 1DVD set! The album was a turning point for Queen in the era of the rise of punk/new wave music in 1977, when the band changed course and toured vigorously to conquer the United States, including their signature hits “We Will Rock You” and “The Legendary Champion” as well as “Eternal Wings” and “It's Late,” and also featured new musical directions for the band and a new sound that incorporated elements of blues and jazz. The CD also includes an “alternate album” featuring multi-track remixes and outtakes of all the songs on the album, as well as a CD version of the original analog masters. The CD contains the “alternate album” of the entire album, which includes multi-track remixes and outtakes, and the MFSL (Mobil Fidelity) recordings, which were converted from the original analog masters to CD and are now hard to find. The DVD includes all the licks and a multi-audio selection with 4 different multi-audio selections including remastered stereo, 5.1 surround mix, instrumental karaoke tracks, vocal main tracks, and more. The “Audio Album” includes a selection of four different audio tracks, including remastered stereo, 5.1 surround mix, instrumental karaoke tracks, vocal main tracks, etc., and the “Video Collection” includes different versions of promo videos, TV and live footage, etc. As in the past, the album is also available in a “Mania” format. This is the sixth volume of the Expanded Collector's Edition, the “ultimate in-depth study of an album” series that delves into the album in the same maniacal way as before, and is not to be missed!
[SELLING POINT]
The first half of CD1 is a “Complete Album Reconstructions”, which includes all songs from the album reconstructed with multi-track remixes, outtakes, rehearsals, and demos. This is an alternate album of officially unrecorded material. It includes a demo of “Sheer Heart Attack” with a long intro count, a hybrid version of “All Dead” with Freddie and Brian, and a test press version of “Wings of Eternity”. The second half of the album is an “alternate versions and remixes” of more officially unrecorded material. The first half of CD2 includes the MFSL (Mobil Fidelity) version of “Feeling Feeling” (number 9), which is not included on the album, and the BBC version of “Legendary Champion” with a different backing track and guitars. The first half of CD2 contains the entire album on MFSL (Mobile Fidelity) recordings, which were originally released on CD from the original analog masters and are now hard to find. The first half of CD2 contains the entire album on MFSL (Mobile Fidelity Sound System), which is hard to find nowadays. This is a natural sound faithful to the original that the latest remastering cannot provide. The second half of the DVD contains the Rick Rubin remixes and rehearsals that were previously released on Hollywood Records and are not included in the 40th anniversary box set. The DVD is an audio album, as before, featuring the lyrics to all the songs in real-time and four different audio options: remastered stereo, 5.1 surround mix, instrumental tracks, and vocal main tracks. Not only for the maniacal comparison of sound sources, you can also play the instrumental tracks to enjoy karaoke along with the video, or check out the songs and chorus with the vocal main tracks, where Freddie's vocals are the main focus and the performance is kept to a minimum. ” Video Collection” contains all versions of the promo videos for ‘We Will Rock You,’ ‘Legendary Champion,’ and ‘Wings of Eternity,’ including rare behind-the-scenes footage of the making of the videos. It covers various different versions of the videos. This is the sixth volume of the “Ultimate Album Study” series, recommended for beginners and enthusiasts alike, which compiles the related sound and video material for the “Dedicated to the World” album.
