Great, arrived too great live album! The in this work have been paid, the Queen + Adam Lambert of the latest “London O2 Arena concert”. QUEEN of even hometown London was brilliantly vacuum pack the figure that landed the largest arena of, it is the UK resident taper of us to always provide a number of name recording. Also is famous in the Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones, towards the QUEEN fans Speaking of “that” STILL ROCK IN HAMMERSMITH “taper (2012 7/14 London)”, be able to experience the world-class technology and may not (not yet listened of person an immediate check!). Although it is taper that will deliver always great sound, this work is the moment you have listened to the master that was outstanding sound. arrival among the collection, not “this press I did not need to not think they do? “to do in. Queen + is renowned as Adam Lambert early decisive masterpiece, it’s the 2015 version of that live album!
Kano name board is I’ve narrowing collapsed snow from “Flash Intro.” To “Seven Seas Of Rhye”, pole position of this work is “One Vision”. This is the start to remind the 1986 Magic tour that became the Freddie last moment of the tour. Abuzz become venue in that SE intro reminiscent of “Live At Wembley” is, at once boils at thunderous guitar riff! Those in which the present work was to hand, I think than you are able to realize the terrible of recording at this point. While plenty sealed a vast space of “London’s largest arena”, also clear of the lush musical sound balance. And to the Bubbly enthusiasm is transmitted to take in hand, because I clear pole ball musical tone is not disturbed at all. And to not feel the distance between the band, … Why can record also spacious airy way.
When that openness is also encounter the music of QUEEN, it is to sublimation spectacle sense, to elation. Spectacular sound, chorus is spread while wearing a transparent feeling, and drenched the audience. And, welcomed the music that falls from the top from the bottom enthusiastic spectators, it is just feeling going fused gently around the eyes. To great alone this stereoscopic effect, it can be seen to have spread far far away (but repeat, sense of distance of the band is close!). For example, is “Do not Stop Me Now”. And sing Adam with examining the piano, melts a large chorus. While finely controlled the splendor of Adam’s voice is felt to direct, and I loving to uncontrollable QUEEN goes intermingled become a large chorus. Just magic. Korezo is “audience recording Magic”!
In the subsequent “Somebody To Love”, I can taste with plenty of the actor first time of Adam. While changing the tone of voice to ever-changing, how much relaxed voice echoing in the O2 Arena last! The Adam you, but you have caused a shock and pros and cons to all over the world, while sincerely love the world of QUEEN, or will not he only stomach even a Hiroshi world who sing up here. Further follow before you can play the “Love of My Life”, you talk about the joy that came back to his hometown and around the world, but welcomed it, hometown of audience to respond in a warm chorus. Downright is moments to approach the chest.
“Bass Solo” is a sequence of disk 2 is also impressed that start from. In particular, you will lose the words to beauty to continuing from “Save Me” which was debuted at this UK tour to “Who Wants To Live Forever”. “Save Me” include, but are Adam still felt slightly even hardness, “Who Wants To Live Forever” In still proudly about Nik, and as possible sing perfectly.
After the guitar solo sandwiching the “Last Horizon” is, “All Your Love / Vocal Jam” great fun with the audience in, and to climax to pay out the familiar super-classic from the next to the next! QUEEN that boil to boil a large crowd of 20,000 people. As with “ROCK BIG BEN LIVE”, but this day also has Misu~tsu the guitar solo of “Bohemian Rhapsody” (why hundreds of times also I know the play?), I will greatly climax without also it even ones. So, hometown of fans have been waiting a QUEEN. And I was really lonely. That feeling is I seen in skin. I travel painfully. And from this it is, audience recording, I unstoppable!

As I wrote in this paper as the “pros and cons”, to stop the other call them so. Two years ago, Queen + Adam Lambert was played in front of an audience of about 5,000 people in Hammersmith. Now they have been packed every night a large venue of 20,000 people in the home. Certainly, will never disappear even complex feelings now. It already helped. However, it is to be brought a masterpiece us to large venue at the same time, they only have. Moreover, do not end only in the mere topic, because the hometown of the audience to listen in this work are you singing happily.
Modern happy that revived, magnificent spectacle of large venue unique. Masterpieces of audience recordings made possible in 2015 of technology, is entrusted to the press 2CD shine that does not fade, and will deliver to you.
