Queen - Under Review 1980-1991
2007 : 1 hour 17 minutes
This video is only available with Night Flight+.
Director: Chris Davies
synopsis
In the 1980s Queen became the confident, mature yet still challenging band they'd always threatened to be. Unlike many groups who'd broken through in the early 1970s, Queen were unaffected by the onslaught of punk; they were neither old wave nor new wave.
