''The Complete Works'' is a boxed set issued by the rock band Queen in 1985. It contained all of the band's original studio albums, live album and non-album tracks to that point.〔Millar, Robbi (1985) "Work Force", ''Sounds'', 14 December 1985, pp. 28-9〕 It was available in vinyl and cassette formats. ==History== Following the 1985 Live Aid concert, Queen found themselves in a creative period. While spending only 20+ minutes onstage before the whole world, some felt that Queen had stolen the show. In the wake of this unexpected turn, Mercury called on the other band members, to go into the studio and record a song together. Until this point, all but a handful of songs were written by the individual members (and occasional duo-songwriting credits): "Stone Cold Crazy", "Under Pressure" (with David Bowie) and "Soul Brother". The result of this enthusiastic session was "One Vision" and its remixed B-side "Blurred Vision" being released as a single worldwide. On 2 December, Parlophone Records released what was then the definitive Queen boxed set: all of Queen's 11 original studio albums, their live album ''Live Killers'', and an extra disc titled ''Complete Vision'', which contained all the non-album A-sides and B-sides to that point.〔 The band signed only 600 copies (on the ''Complete Vision'' sleeve), which have now become collectors' items. This was a 14 LP box. In addition, the box included two books, the first with all the albums' artwork, lyrics and pictures; the other had a color world map showing where Queen played and charted, and a world tour itinerary up to that time, showing a list of equipment they carried with them. Each album was digitally remastered and re-sleeved in white with an embossed crest and gold Roman numerals. Not included in the box were their 1981 ''Greatest Hits'' compilation, as well as versions and edits of tracks used for single releases worldwide. Queen released four studio albums after ''The Complete Works''; ''A Kind of Magic'' (1986), ''The Miracle'' (1989), ''Innuendo'' (1991) and ''Made in Heaven'' (1995). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Complete Works (Queen album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
