Magic: a Kind of Queen
Thursday 3 May 2007
Magic were formed in 1974, just as Queen were reaching the height of their popularity. Over the past 25 plus years Magic have built their reputation and following, performing material of great complexity both vocally and instrumentally to an incredibly high standard. Since 1993, Magic have dedicated a full concert to the music of Freddie Mercury and Queen. There is no attempt to emulate Queen visually in their concert, but rather to celebrate the music of one of the greatest bands of all time by performing it superbly, live, and better than anyone else, with the exception, perhaps, of the originals, Queen themselves!
