‘This exquisitely produced photo book … containing outtakes, test Polaroids, and other previously seen snapshots that might even surprise die-hard fans who thought they’d seen everything.’ New Beats
Queen were the rarest of breeds: both genius in the studio and utterly brilliant performing live. A potent, magical mixture that has won them fans the world over. Such is their success, Queen form part of collectors’ so-called ‘Mighty Three’. Along with The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, no other bands’ recordings and memorabilia are so highly sought after.
‘Rock’s pictures of Queen’s breakthrough gig at Imperial College in 1973 are just some of the rare and unseen images collected in Killer Queen…’ Uncut
‘Looking back, it is obvious that Mick was a master of his art very early on. His pictures speak louder than words. The images in this book stand up fresh and untarnished by time.’ Brian May
