“You can do anything with my work, but never make me boring.”Freddie MercuryThe “Never Boring” box set brings together for the first time a specially-curated selection of Freddie Mercury’s music, visuals and written and spoken words. The set reminds us that Freddie was an exceptional singer, songwriter, performer and human being whose special kind of magic is captured in this exceptional collection of his solo work.The package is meticulously compiled and produced by Queen’s longtime sound team Justin Shirley-Smith, Kris Fredriksson and Joshua J Macrae who also co-produced the Bohemian Rhapsody film official soundtrack album.Taken from the very best original source material available, the full “Never Boring” collection contains three CDs with 32 tracks; a Blu-ray and DVD featuring 13 promo videos and interview; a 120-page 10”x10” hardback book full photos, many of them rare and unpublished, as well as thoughts and choice quotes from Freddie himself, and an introduction from Rami Malek, who earned an Oscar for his portrayal of Freddie in Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”. Specially created insert packaging includes a double-sided poster containing an image of Freddie and an original work from synesthetic artist Jack Coulter inspired by the song “Mr Bad Guy”.The three CDs include a new 12-track compilation of many of Freddie’s greatest solo performances; a newly mixed 11-track special edition of “Mr Bad Guy”; and the nine-track 2012 special edition of “Barcelona” featuring full orchestra. The Blu-ray and DVD of Freddie’s promos and his stage performances with Montserrat Caballé include eight that have been painstakingly reassembled from the original 35mm film rushes to give them the best-ever visual and sound quality. Review: Freddie at his best - I wasn't sure about this album as it features a few tracks I hadn't previously heard, I'm glad I ordered it as it really is superb. All the classics are here like The Great Pretender, I was born to love you and in my defense. Also included are tracks from the Barcelona album with Montserrat Cabelle - How can I go on is superb. This is a very good vinyl pressing, ignore the reviews saying otherwise. Review: Clarity and depth..play it loud - Certainly never boring, as with all remastered heavyweight vinyl it sounds fantastic esp if it is abbey road studio remaster full of loads of depth and clarity I always find having listened intensely to Queen for a very long time now via cd , cassettes, vinyl that the remastered stuff has tiny little things here and there that you have missed listening via other means .. so this may look like a money spinner to some people but it is not to me

MR BAD GUY JUST GOT BADDER!! A neat collection of some classic Freddie Mercury tunes
Great to see Freddie Mercury’s albums have been given a new lease of life with a contemporary flavour! Listening to MR BAD GUY Special Edition was like having my ears opened up and hearing nuances in the music never before heard with extra vigour and a boost of energy. The poster is a lovely addition, and the book is beautifully compiled of 120 pages of pics, quotes, lyrics and credits. This five disc set and book will keep you entertained for hours

Perfect pressie.
Christmas present for a teenager who loves art and Freddie. Absolutely delighted her. From the beautiful packaging through the presentation of the words and images in the book to the contents of the discs. A thrilled fan and a delighted gift giver.

Even better than expected
Even better than expected. The remastered songs are very good. The picture book is very nice. Lots of stuff in there that I haven't ever seen before too!

Great album, no download card though
Great solo compilation of Freddie’s work, very pleased with it apart from I didn’t receive a mp3 download card which was meant to be included with it, bit gutted about that hence 4 stars

Sheer brilliance.
This item was as it said on the box ‘Never Boring’. Anything this man did, either solo or with Queen never was.

A beautiful set which includes CD’s, Blu Ray, DVD and a very nice book. It’s great having all of Freddie’s solo material in a box set!

「Mr. Bad Guy」と単品の「Never Boring」を買うよりも安いなんて・・・ 私は、3,500円台で購入したが、今、なんと2,800円台！ Queen Fanなら、この豪華写真集付きの激安Box Setを買わない手はない。

Tengo varios LP de QUEEN, TODOS SON MARAVILLOSOS....pero este tiene una variación de temazos tan importantes, que me enamoró escucharlo decenas de veces. Freddie es genial, nunca nadie como él....sin desmerecer al resto de la banda, son MÚSICOS GENIALES!!!
