Classic Albums Live Presents QUEEN: News Of The World @ BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center

Remember when you used to listen to an entire album? When flipping the vinyl meant you were in store for more greatness? Founded in 2003, Classic Albums Live has quickly earned a stellar reputation for perfectly recreating classic rock albums in its entirety, reproduced to be as true to the original recording as possible, and without costumes or impersonators. The musicians go to great lengths to faithfully recreate every sound on the original album live on stage, note for note, cut for cut. The concert includes QUEEN’s 1977 LP, News Of The World, performed in its entirety, with massive hits such as  “We Will Rock You” and “We Are The Champions”. The second half of this event is a full set of our favorite QUEEN classics.

Classic Albums Live is a modern-day orchestra that brings the world’s greatest records to life, on stage – note for note / cut for cut, by utilizing the highest-level players whose unique ability to focus and execute with precision is essential to authentically recreating these records. The musicians of Classic Albums Live are curators of these albums that are historic and stand the test of time.  CAL honors these recordings and their fans by delivering performances that sound exactly like the records. To do this, CAL boasts an exceptional ensemble of performers, all of whom have graced music’s elite stages and collaborated with industry icons both in studio and on stage. Each CAL show offers two distinct experiences: a faithful rendition of the chosen record in the first half, followed by a dynamic set featuring the artist’s greatest hits.

QUEEN, founded in London by its four original members in 1970, is considered one of the greatest rock bands of all time, with millions of fans around the world and millions of records sold. Some of their most famous songs are considered anthems, such as “We Will Rock You” and “Bohemian Rhapsody.” and reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Another One Bites The Dust” and “Crazy Little Thing Called Love”. QUEEN was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.

Interesting Facts:
  • The band only released “Another One Bites the Dust” as a single after Michael Jackson suggested it.
  • David Bowie’s collaboration on “Under Pressure” was entirely unplanned — Bowie happened to be near the studio during recording.
  • Freddie Mercury accidentally started his trademark “bottomless mic” when his mic stand broke, and he continued using the stub across the stage.
  • Freddie Mercury designed the iconic “Royal Crest Logo” based on all four members’ astrological signs.
  • Brian May has a PhD in astrophysics from Imperial College London and was appointed Chancellor of Liverpool John Moores University in 2007.
