Thoughts

I am, obviously, a huge Queen fan, but when it comes to full albums, it can be a bit hit and miss whether I like them or not. This one was a big hit. There’s the tracks that you know but they’re surrounded by excellent pop rock songs and veering towards rock opera, in fact the genres are quite varied. Freddie’s vocals lead the way, with Roger popping up occasionally, and you can hear the four of them pulling their weight and working together to create this epic album. A winner for me.

Rating: 5 / 5
