Overview

In Brian May's own words and more than 300 previously unseen 3-D photographs, Queen in 3-D is an insider's look at life with the rock band Queen, told for the first time. The pictures and self-penned text tell the story of Brian's discovery of the world of stereoscopy as a boy, and chronicles Queen from the early 1970s to the present day. The images, from Brian's personal archives, were taken using the various stereo cameras which Brian carried throughout his life. Viewed in May's patented OWL viewer (included), they leap into stunning three-dimensional realism, giving uniquely vivid impressions of life with Freddie Mercury, Roger Taylor, John Deacon and Brian himself, alongside the people who helped to shape Queen's amazing global adventure. 3-D photos and text exclusively by Brian May Featuring Queen on and off stage from the 1970s to the present day More than 300 previously unseen stereo images Brian May's glimpses of life in the studio and on the road Bonus sections including 21st century-Queen + Adam Lambert Includes a 3-D viewer designed by Dr. May Each volume now has more than 17 stereo images from the movie
