What to expect
'An engaging mix of humour and detailed critical analysis ... great fun. 4/5.' - Mojo
From the award-winning author of Bring It On Home: Peter Grant, Led Zeppelin and Beyond and Pigs Might Fly: The Inside Story of Pink Floyd comes MAGNIFICO! THE A TO Z OF QUEEN.
Addressing the phenomenal success of Bohemian Rhapsody, acclaimed music journalist Mark Blake builds on the legend of Queen and their enduring audience appeal.
Providing a fresh, unparalleled take on Queen's music, story and legacy, Blake's complete portrait covers not only the major hits and bestselling albums, but also the inside stories behind the music.
Via a series of essays, interviews and biographies, the author shares a wealth of lesser-known details - gained from over thirty years of original material - and explores what the songs of Queen say about their creators.
Critics Review
‘A royal banquet of Mercury and co. morsels … Blake has enough knowledge and research in his locker to take us on a deep dive into lesser-known corners of the band’s history … there’s something here for casuals and obsessives alike … You want it all? There’s not much missing here. 9/10.’
‘An engaging mix of humour and detailed critical analysis, delving fathoms deep into the before and after of the band’s classic line-up and generally leaving no scara unmooshed … great fun. 4/5.’
