The cover: Queen: everything about, by their official tour photographer Denis O'Regan.
I ordered it via the library, it came from the libary in Dongeradeel (where the # is that?) and it's used many times (plus: much Queen fans have been reading it...minus: yuk!)
The text and pictures are made by Denis O'regan, in the intro he tells how he became Queen-fan and their official photographer, really interesting to read I can't deny, but I want Queen pictures!
Chapter 1: The first years
Some great pictures from chapter one:
In chapter one Denis tells us about the first Queen shows he saw at the time he wasn't yet their official tour photographer. There are som backstage photos and a lot of photos about Freddies outfits! He tells about the techniques Queen used live to make their concert the best ever!
Chapter 2: the second decade:
some pictures
On the right page my favourite picture! |
In chapter two Denis tells about the characters of the Queen members, he tells about Mott the Hoople and again about techniques on stage. A little part is dedicated to Freddies clothing. The part about the characters is my favourite.
Part 3: the last tour
In this chapter Denis tells -again- about live techniques and some facts about Queen, not really special facts by the way. The pictures are great, the best chapter in this book in that way.
conclusion
This is a nice book to read and to watch the pictures, it does not have really special information or rare photos. That part gets 4 of 5 stars.
By the way, I have never seen a book before with such a bad quality of paper and an extremely bad lay-out. When I look at the information the library gives about the book, I see not every picture is made my mr. O'Regan himself! Weird isn't it? Lay out and quality just 1 of 5 stars.
I give this book 3 stars, because it's not really special at all, but nice to read.
Very long item today! I hope you liked it!
