Due September 8 (September 9 in North America) and available in a variety of formats, "Live At The Rainbow '74" presents Queen live over two shows at the famed London venue.

The first show, on March 31, 1974, saw Queen perform tracks from their newly-released album, "Queen II." The set features over a dozen tracks never previously released on any official Queen live album.

Recorded by Roy Thomas Baker, the recordings were originally scheduled to become Queen's third album (and debut live album), presented as a career-defining release like James Brown's "Live At The Apollo" or The Who's "Live At Leeds." But Queen's creative momentum produced a stack of new songs begging to be recorded and instead of releasing the live album, the band went into the studio to record what was to become 1974's breakthrough album, "Sheer Heart Attack."
