A new book '40 Years of Queen' by Harry Doherty with an introduction by Brian May and Roger Taylor has been released to commemorate the iconic band's 40th anniversary. Captivating unseen photographs and intimate memorabilia are revealed for the first time in its pages, along with untold anecdotes published to celebrate an incredible 40 years.

Queen: one of the biggest bands the world has ever seen. 40 Years of Queen is an official publication, fully approved by the band, telling their story right from the very beginning. It showcases stunning moments in the band’s history through photographs, as well as truly unique pieces of memorabilia from the private collections of Queen’s members.



This tribute will give fans unprecedented access to all areas, and the chance to get their hands on some fascinating, intimate memorabilia for the first time ever: backstage passes, handwritten lyrics, ultra-rare posters, original tour itineraries, handwritten letters, limited-edition records, invites to the now-legendary tour parties, a CD of all four members of the band talking and more…



Harry Doherty has worked as a music journalist since the early 1970s, when he joined Melody Maker as a staff writer. He continued to write on rock for the next four decades and still regularly contributes features to music publications including Classic Rock magazine.
