Label: GOOD SHIP FUNKE
FIRST RELEASE OF QUEEN’S FULL CONCERT IN BUENOS AIRES IN 1981
Queen began the 1980s with The Game, the band’s eighth studio album, released on EMI in July ’80. Featuring hit singles ‘Crazy Little Thing Called Love’ and ‘Another One Bites The Dust’, both of which reached number one, the record was an enormous seller worldwide. • The album introduced the first appearance of a synthesiser on a Queen album, heretofore, their releases featured a distinctive "No Synthesisers!" sleeve note. In September 1980, Queen performed three sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden. And the year also saw the release of the Queen soundtrack album for the movie Flash Gordon. • In February 1981, Queen travelled to South America as part of The Game Tour, and became the first major rock band to play in Latin American stadiums. The tour included five shows in Argentina, one of which drew the largest single concert crowd in Argentinian history with an audience of 300,000 in Buenos Aires. This incredible concert, performed on 28th February at the city’s Estadio Vélez Sarsfield, was both recorded and filmed for simultaneous broadcast on TV and FM radio. • Previously unreleased in its entirety (only shortened versions have emerged in the past) this 2CD set now changes all that, containing as it does the complete concert recorded that extraordinary evening, now almost 40 years ago.
