Also, a limited-edition boxed set containing all Queen albums to date was released under the title of The Complete Works.

Title: Sound and Vision
Passage: "Sound and Vision" is a song and single by David Bowie which appeared on his 1977 album "Low". The song is notable for juxtaposing an uplifting guitar and synthesizer-led instrumental track with Bowie’s withdrawn lyrics. In keeping with the minimalist approach of "Low", Bowie and co-producer Tony Visconti originally recorded the track as an instrumental, bar the backing vocal (performed by Visconti’s wife, Mary Hopkin). Bowie then recorded his vocal after the rest of the band had left the studio, before trimming verses off the lyrics and leaving a relatively lengthy instrumental intro on the finished song.
