It’s perhaps no surprise that Queen’s hit musical, We Will Rock You, sees the show’s heroes end up at Wembley Stadium, ‘the place of living rock’ for the storming finale where the roots of rock are rediscovered and the rebellious bohemians find their way to recreating the music of the Mighty Queen.
But if ever a reminder was needed of why Queen earned themselves the mantle of best stadium rock group in history, then you only have to turn to this DVD to see Queen live, uncut, and at their ferocious, majestic, best.

‘Live At Wembley Stadium’ represents the peak of that experience; from every emotion generated, to every moment of light and darkness.
Off the back of that year’s ‘A Kind Of Magic’ opus, Queen were back to the top of their game, though it would be several years before another studio record came to fruition.
Nevertheless, the ‘Magic’ tour would fully revitalise Queen, in much the same fashion as 85’s critically lauded ‘Live Aid’ performance, and ‘Live At Wembley Stadium’ epitomises the band at the peak of their abilities within the live setting.

 Review: "Queen: Live at Wembley Stadium (DVD)" - Sea of Tranquility - The Web Destination for Progressive Music!
Queen...the band that transcended all genres, whether it be glam rock, hard rock, heavy metal, pop, operatic romanticism, or aggressive prog-rock, they covered it all, and then some.
By 1986, the band was at the peak of their powers, and this historic concert at the UK's Wembley Stadium in front of 100,000 fans cemented their legacy in rock and rock immortality.
As much as Live at Wembley Stadium is just a great DVD, it also is a somewhat painful experience to watch, as it is a harsh reminder of just what a loss Freddie Mercury's death was on all of us.
