Did anyone see the article Queen on FB shared to celebrate The Miracle being 28 years old yesterday? Released in 1979 and we all knew Freddie had AIDS then.
Anyway, made me feel nostalgic for The Miracle. Great memories. Good days. Solid album. Great associated mixes and B sides.

I doubt Freddie had AIDS then ('79) and not sure why you introduced it here. Perhaps it's just a typo. It's a good, positive album.

Yep - love The Miracle. Plenty of diversity across styles of music on here and the wealth of B-sides, 12" mixes and unreleased material that has leaked makes it the most productive period for the band.

Durrrrr '89. Am I missing something here ?
@k_m: That's what the article said. I was highlighting the sloppy approach Queen take to their history.

There is hardly ever an official Queen press release, write up or review that isn't riddled with inaccuracies and errors. Sadly the laziness or lack of attention to detail often permeates through to the end products too.
The fact there's been about 400 people posting corrections under it and it's still not been addressed. Sloppy defending (Alan Hansen voice).

Ahahaha good one
On reflection, obviously WIAWI is fantastic and there's a few other parts of the album that totally do it for me (May is nuts throughout the record) but I think the best bit of the songs from the sessions is where the Mustapha piano comes in on HOIT.
rescue from the archive TV in Spain, a making of IWIA with some images that I never see before:

If it was released in 1979, then maybe it was originally called 'Live Killers.'
Roger said the only thing live on Live Killers was the bass drum. The irony is that the only thing NOT live on The Miracle is the bass drum.
Or something. Need work.
