One and done, for me. I respect that they didn't want to make another Bohemian Rhapsody, but BoRhap I can watch over and over, while RM was tough enough to get through once.
Ironically, in one audio-biography I heard, EJ stated that he hates musicals lol.

I thought both bios were somewhat lacking. While Rami Malek, likewise did an exceptional job of playing Freddie Mercury [utilizing Freddie's REAL vocals] and the highlight for me was Queen's triumphant Live Aids Concert, Rocketman, unfortunately, had no real highlights and the aborted John songs performed 'piecemeal' failed to create any excitement and the focus of John's loveless home life, absent and cold hearted father, failed relationships and descent into alcohol and drugs further added to, IMO, a bummer of a bio. Thankfully, the UHD4K/BD~V discs on Black Friday were actually cheaper than a movie ticket so I don't feel cheated and I've already promised the included BD~V to a friend who hasn't yet seen it.

In the time it took to concoct this mess, all of EJ's music could've been remixed and released in 5.1.

Trying to find a back up copy of this disc.
People complain about the channel assignment.
I like it just the way it is....

Starting my day with Ian Shaw's other multichannel release (I listened to Lifejacket last week)

Ian Shaw Drawn to All Things The Songs of Joni Mitchell

Same ambient reverb-y mix as Lifejacket that, for me, is transcended by Shaw's voice and delivery and the material--man, his interpretations leave me wanting more multichannel Joni (Both Sides Now just isn't enough for me) . . . might there be a future D-V release of Court and Spark and The Hissing of Summer Lawns (no 2-fer for Joni, Mr. Dutton--I'll gladly pay for single releases!)? Here's a review of Shaw's release
