December 24, 1975. London's Hammersmith Odeon. Onstage at this legendary venue the four members of Queen are bringing to a close a ground-breaking show, transmitted live on BBC TV, and bringing to a climax the most eventful and exciting year in their careers so far one that has taken them from the UK to America to Japan, sealing their transition from ambitious upstarts into one of the biggest and most important bands of the era - and beyond.
"This concert was very special because it was the first time we ever played a whole show completely live on TV ... the Christmas Show," says Brian May. "The quality, after great rescue work and transfer into the digital domain, is amazing. And the energy we had comes across very forcefully."
Featuring 15 tracks from their first four visionary albums, plus covers of four classic rock n roll staples delivered with characteristic panache, A Night At The Odeon - Hammersmith 1975 captures a band in full flight and radiating megawatts of self-confidence.
As well as audio and visual footage of the gig, the DVD and SD Blu-Ray versions feature two special bonus features Looking Back At The Odeon, a brand new 22-minute documentary featuring a previously unseen interview with Brian May and Roger Taylor by BBC2 Old Grey Whistle Test presenter Bob Harris about the 1975 Hammersmith Odeon show, plus the rarely seen Live At The Budokan Japan 1975 footage, featuring three songs ("Now I'm Here," "Killer Queen" and "In The Lap Of The Gods... Revisited") recorded during their legendary tour of the Far East.
The Super Deluxe Box Set also includes a never-before-heard recording from the pre-show soundcheck something that no one outside of the band themselves knew existed until now.
