Queen’s sixth album, 1977’s News of the World, is being generously expanded for its 40th anniversary in a new 3CD/1DVD/1LP box set, to be released in November.

Following the typically grandiose rock of A Day At the Races a year before, Queen and longtime engineer Mike Stone, now promoted to co-producer, found themselves pursuing various rock styles and dialing back some of their more ornate impulses. This is arguably nowhere more prominent than in the landmark one-two opening salvo of arena rock staples “We Will Rock You” (propelled chiefly by one of the most famous drum intros of all time) and “We Are the Champions.” (Both songs were featured on the lead single, which reached the Top 5 in both the U.K. and the U.S.) The album itself was a significant collaborative effort, with frontman Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, bassist John Deacon and drummer Roger Taylor all contributing compositions to the project; Mercury, May and Taylor share lead vocal duties here, as well.

This new News of the World box set features two bonus discs and a DVD of bonus material. The first, the entirely unreleased Raw Sessions, presents an alternate version of the original album from demos, outtakes and live cuts. Highlights include a generously extended version of “We Are the Champions” (clocking in at a minute and a half longer than the album version), a version of “All Dead, All Dead” with Freddie on vocals, a demo of “Fight From the Inside” entirely sung and performed by Taylor and a live version of “Sleeping On the Sidewalk,” a song rarely played during the band’s News of the World tour in America. A second bonus disc collects a further 19 relevant bonus tracks, including versions from archival live albums, every bonus track from the bonus EP included in the 2011 reissue campaign, the band’s final BBC session from 1977, five instrumentals and the U.S. edit of third single “It’s Late,” which makes its debut on CD here.

A new hourlong documentary, Queen: The American Dream, will chronicle the News of the World era with fascinating, unseen primary source footage shot by British documentarian Bob Harris at the beginning of the band’s Stateside tour in the fall of 1977. This all-access look includes studio footage, live performances and concert rehearsals. The package is rounded out with “a pure analogue re-cut of the original vinyl LP, direct from the unmastered analogue master mix tapes” and packaged in a replica of the original album sleeve, plus a 60-page book of rare and unseen images.

The package is available on November 17. Full specs are below, with additional Amazon links to follow.
