It’s kinda hard to review this album. I mean, it’s all just too damn good! It’s like: great song, great song, great song, another great song, great song, etc. etc. etc. OK, truthfully, the last few aren’t as hot as the earlier ones, but being that it’s part 1 of 2 best of CDs for Queen, it’s going to pretty much be all high quality stuff. I love the attitude of this music! They just have this vibe and presence about them. The four of them are good musicians, and are serious musicians, but the music so fun. Even in the serious songs, they’re still having fun.
Brian May has some seriously thick guitar tone. The combination of May’s guitar and Freddie Mercury’s voice should be more than enough to make everyone a fan of this group. And yes, Roger Taylor and John Deacon are good as well. All 4 write songs and it’s interesting to hear the various styles of each one. These are some seriously good songs. Both this and Classic Queen are CDs that are really needed by everyone. It’s SO GOOD. I love this CD, it’s fantastic.
