This album was released as a single CD, double LP, CD+DVD set, and CD+Blu-ray set. It features the complete show, and was also simultaneously released on DVD and Blu-ray, losing two tracks. The CD, DVD and Blu-ray were all released together in a boxed set which also contains replica memorabilia from the concert, and a 12" single containing a soundcheck recording of 'Now I'm Here', which was the first time any Queen soundcheck had been officially released.
The concert was performed on Christmas Eve 1975 and broadcast live on BBC Radio 1 and BBC 1, at 10:00pm, as an 'Old Grey Whistle Test' special, with an intro by Bob Harris, the end of which was included on the release. As a result of the broadcast, the show became one of Queen's most widely bootlegged recordings, and three bootlegs from the 'Top 100 Bootlegs' project feature tracks from the show, namely 'Xmas At The Beeb' (16 tracks), 'Rhapsody In Red' (15 tracks) and 'Rogues & Scandals' (5 tracks). Between them, they feature the complete show, albeit with an edited version of the 'Jailhouse Rock' medley. Like many other bootlegs of the show, they featured an incorrect tracklisting, with 'Keep Yourself Alive' before 'Brighton Rock'.
Several tracks had been officially released before, as 'Now I'm Here' and 'White Queen' were released on the 'Sheer Heart Attack' and 'Queen II' 2011 album reissues, while 'Ogre Battle' and 'Son And Daughter' were released on the 'Queen II' and 'Queen' 2011 iTunes LP's as bonus videos. The 'Rare Live' video features excerpts of 'Keep Yourself Alive', and edited versions of 'Big Spender' and the 'Jailhouse Rock' medley. 'The March Of The Black Queen' was later included on the 'Greatest Hits In Japan' DVD.
Now I'm Here
Track 1. Track length 4:43, song length 4:21.

The ogre men are coming out
Two-way mirror mountain
They're running up behind
And they're coming all about
Can't go east 'cos you gotta go south
Ogre men are going home
And now the great big fight is over
Bugle blow let trumpet cry

Smiling dark eyes
So sad her eyes
As it began, ohh
On such a breathless night as this
Upon my brow the lightest kiss
I walked alone
And all around the air did say
My lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known
The white queen walks and the night grows pale
Stars of lovingness in her hair
Needing - unheard
Pleading - one word
So sad her eyes
She cannot see, ohh
How did thee fare, what have thee seen
The mother of the willow green
I call her name
And 'neath the window have I stayed
I loved the foot steps that she made
And when she came
White queen how my heart did ache
And dry my lips no words can make
Still I wait
My Goddess hear my darkest fear
I speak too late
It's for evermore that I wait
Dear friends, goodbye
No tears in my eyes
So sad it ends
As it began

Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body's aching all the time

Caviar and cigarettes
Well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice
She's a killer queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
(Anytime)
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
She spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
You're that way inclined
Perfume came naturally from Paris
Cars she couldn't care less
Fastidious and precise
She's a killer queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
