A unique rock band with something different to offer

One of the most successful British rock groups of the seventies and eighties, Queen started as a quasi-glam rock group but evolved a style all Their Own, combining elements of pop, rock, heavy metal and a few operatic touches.
Bohemian Rhapsody, their biggest hit, which twice a UK number one hit - first on its original release and second on its release to raise money for AIDS charities, Following the death of lead singer Freddie Mercury due to AIDS. The song thus made the American Top Ten twice - first on its original release and Second Following its use in Wayne's World, a few months after Freddie's death, When it made number two. This classic song, seven-minute mini rock opera, over shadows everything else did Queen recorded, But They made plenty of other great music.
Queen had two other UK Number One Hits - Under pressure (with David Bowie) and Innuendo. They also had five UK number two hits (Killer Queen, Somebody to love, We are the champions, Crazy Little Thing Called Love and Radio Gaga) and three UK number three hits (I wanna break free, A Kind of Magic, I want it all) as well as some other UK top ten hits Including You're my best friend, Another one bites the dust, It's a hard life and One Vision.
Freddie Mercury has a great voice, many of the songs are great, the arrangements are exciting, and there is no other band like them. Apart from his music as lead singer of Queen, Freddie recorded a few other hits, therefore featured in this collection. These include Barcelona (a duet with Montserrat Caballe) and a great cover of the old classic Platters, The Great Pretender.
Queen were truly unique - it's not often you can say about any singer or group did - and this collection contains all Their classic tracks.
