Various Artists (Queen, David Bowie, Elton John, Metallica, U2, Def Leppard) – The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert (London, UK, 1992) – Japanese Broadcast Edition

This 2-disc DVD set captures the “Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert,” held at Wembley Stadium in London on April 20, 1992, featuring a total runtime of two hours and twenty minutes sourced from the original domestic TV broadcast master. Spearheaded by the three remaining band members, this monumental event was a charity concert aimed at honoring Freddie’s memory and raising awareness about AIDS; it garnered significant attention at the time for being broadcast in 70 countries worldwide. This release features a direct digital transfer from a top-quality master videotape of the original Japanese broadcast version—which aired domestically on November 24th (the anniversary of Freddie’s passing). A major highlight is the inclusion of numerous shots and previously unreleased live scenes that differ from the footage broadcast live on the day of the event. Notably, it includes Robert Plant singing “Innuendo”—a performance cut from the official release and the only live take of the song by Queen, making it extremely rare. With many other scenes not found in official releases, this is a “must-own” item for your permanent collection, even if you already possess existing footage or home video releases.
