Description

Following the 1985 Live Aid concert, Queen found themselves in a creative period. While spending only 20+ minutes onstage before the whole world, some felt that Queen had stolen the show. In the wake of this unexpected turn, Mercury called on the other band members, to go into the studio and record a song together. Until this point, all but a handful of songs were written by the individual members (and occasional duo-songwriting credits): "Stone Cold Crazy", "Under Pressure" (with David Bowie) and "Soul Brother". The result of this enthusiastic session was "One Vision" and its remixed B-side "Blurred Vision" being released as a single worldwide.

On December 2, Parlophone Records released what was then the definitive Queen boxed set: all of Queen's 11 original studio albums, their live album "Live Killers", and an extra disc titled "Complete Vision", which contained all the non-album A-sides and B-sides to that point. This has now become a collectors' item.

This is a 14 LP box; and in addition, the box features two books, the first with all the albums' artwork, lyrics and pictures; the other has a color world map showing where Queen played and charted, and a world tour itinerary up to that time, showing a list of equipment they carried with them. Each album is digitally remastered and resleeved in white with an embossed Crest and gold Roman numerals.
