Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Brian May's 'God Save the Queen' guitar solo was played on his custom Red Special guitar, built by him and his father from fireplace wood and motorcycle parts in the 1960s.
This concert marked a deliberate modernization push for the monarchy — booking Ricky Martin and S Club 7 alongside McCartney was the Palace's answer to Cool Britannia.
