Most of the content was released previously on VHS and the long defunct CED Videodisc format as Greatest Flix in 1981.

It was also number one in USA (Platinum), Germany (Gold), Spain and other countries.

It was followed by Queen’s Greatest Video Hits 2 DVD release.

Audio commentaries by Freddie Mercury and John Deacon are taken from previously recorded interviews whilst Brian May and Roger Taylor have recorded new commentaries for the DVD.

Both confessed they have few memories of many of the videos because they did not see them for a long time prior to the commentary being recorded.
