A meticulous record of Queen's heyday, when their 1980 album The Game hit No. 1 in the UK and US charts and they literally conquered the world, Legendary - Rock Montreal 1981 captures the band's two consecutive concerts held at the 18,000 capacity Forum in Montreal, Canada on November 24th and 25th, 1981. The concerts were recorded for a feature-length Queen concert film, and director Saul Swimmer shot the footage using the then-state-of-the-art double anamorphic lens and 35mm film, allowing it to be shown on a giant screen the equivalent of five stories high. Based on the original film, the video of [Rock Montreal] was digitally restored for IMAX using the latest technology and released in January this year in IMAX theaters around the world, including the UK and the US. It was the largest IMAX exclusive screening in history, and recorded an astounding worldwide box office revenue of 4.1 million US dollars (about 600 million yen) in four days. The extension of the screening period was announced, and it caused a great stir. This IMAX version was also released in Japan in February this year for a limited time at 50 IMAX theaters nationwide, and became a big hit. With the packaging of the digitally restored video, it has been decided to re-release the CD version of [Proof of the Legend - Rock Montreal 1981], which has been difficult to obtain in Japan for a long time. The 28-song setlist on this album showcases the breadth and brilliance of Queen's songwriting. It includes classics from the 70s (Killer Queen, Now I'm Here, We Will Rock You, We Are the Champions, Bohemian Rhapsody), newer hits from the time (Another One Bites the Dust, Crazy for Love, Play the Game, Save Me), as well as fan-favorites and album cuts (Live!, Dragon Attack, I'm in Love with My Car, Sheer Heart Attack), making this a masterpiece live album that captures the moment when Queen literally conquered the world at the height of their popularity.
