It's been 40 years since legendary rock band Queen formed in 1971. To celebrate, Island Records will be re-releasing the band's first five albums ('Queen', 'Queen II', 'Sheer Heart Attack', 'A Night At The Opera' and 'A Day At The Races') on March 14th. In honour of the big anniversary, we've compiled a gallery dedicated one of the most flamboyantly charismatic groups in rock'n'roll history.
