QUEEN The Platinum Collection: Greatest Hits I, II & III (2011 Japanese Limited 'Red Special' First Pressing Edition Remastered 3-SHM CD set [Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players] - What once seemed Queen's greatest liabilities - a preening flamboyance and pompous, overwrought theatricality - have ironically become their most enduring charms in a grey, postmodern pop-music landscape. While it eschews the glammy, pre-punk hard rock of live faves such as 'Stone Cold Crazy' and 'Tie Your Mother Down' for the band's more quirky club-beat string of latter-day hits, this 51-track triple-CD anthology goes a long way toward documenting the true dimensions of the band's music and fame. It even includes some solo work by Brian May and Freddie Mercury, whose duet on 'Barcelona' with diva Montserrat Caballé transcends boundaries of both time and genre. This Limited Edition set includes a bonus mini replica of Brian's famous Red Special guitar housed in a very cool Vox Amp design box! Each disc has its own picture sleeve with Japanese lyric and linear note booklet!)
