Album Description
Available in: Country Icon Country Icon Country Icon Country Icon
Live Killers es el primer disco en vivo editado por la banda inglesa Queen.

Se editó el 26 de junio de 1979 y se grabó durante la gira Europea de Jazz Tour, y se mezcló en sus propios estudios, los Mountain Studios de Mountreux.

La banda no quedo satisfecha con el resultado del disco, siendo Roger el más contrario a él, aborreciendolo.

Una edición singular se editó en 1985 llamada Queen Live para algunos pocos países, como Brasil, Sudáfrica, Australia, Japón y Nueva Zelanda.

En sí el disco es un extraño mix de versiones en vivo, más algunos elementos grabados luego en el estudio y otros editados fuera.

User Album Review
By 1979, Queen was considered among rock's elite class, and rightfully so. With a string of hit albums, singles, and sold-out tours to their credit, the group was about to enter a new musical phase of its career with 1980's mega-hit The Game. And since bootleg copies of their concerts were fetching exorbitant prices among their fans, what better way to close phase one but with their first official live double album, Live Killers. For reasons unknown, the record was criticized harshly when it was first released, but listening to it today, it is an excellent document of Queen at the height of their '70s arena rock powers. Including selections from their debut, 1973's Queen, up until 1978's Jazz, the album is a solid mix of early hits and forgotten album tracks, all given new life in the concert setting while the zealous crowd often sings along. A different, more up-tempo version of "We Will Rock You" opens the album, starting things off in grand style. Other hard rock highlights soon follow, such as "Keep Yourself Alive," "Don't Stop Me Now," "Now I'm Here," "Bohemian Rhapsody," "Spread Your Wings," "Brighton Rock" (complete with an outstanding Brian May guitar solo), and a medley that contains such tracks as "Killer Queen" and "Bicycle Race," among others. The band also shows its softer side with such material as "Dreamer's Ball," "Love of My Life," and "'39," while ending things on a triumphant note with "We Will Rock You"/"We Are the Champions."
