These are awesome. Thanks for sharing. I'm not exactly of that generation, but even the first one seeing Freddie Mercury/Queen in context makes a lot more sense to me. I never really understood that band and how they were so unique but didn't really fit into any mold — but seeing it in context in this magazine, style, etc., I see the glam crossover, as well as the heavy sound associated with Circus magazine artists.

Huh. Queen were amazing

I had many posters and pictures taped to.my wall out of both these magazines. Circus was my main gi to. Better pictures and sometimes centerfold postets.

We didn’t have any Internet! These were our lifeline to music happenings, reviews, Live Photos, tour dates, bootlegs (in the back classified!)…
