    Suggest my next QUEEN album to buy.

    I bought News of the World and loved it, especially the track "It's Late." What album should I check out next? List a few because my CD store usually has SHITE available.

    You may want to pick up "Made In Heaven" for posterity, as it's Freddie's last work before he died. An interesting listen, as some of the tracks were unfinished, and other members had to pick up some vocals after Freddie passed away.

    Otherwise, take your pick!

    Check out "Night At The Opera" and "Day At The Races."

    Enjoy.

        For me the first two albums QUEEN and QUEENII are one of the best albums of 70s, especially the second one.Vocal harmonies are great.Worth purchasing...

          hmm..Maybe Sheer Heart Attack.
          "With a rate of fire of over 20 rounds per second, the IMI Micro Uzi is almost as fast as Yngwie Malmsteen, and 25.4 times more musical"

          Worst of all... It's true..

              yeah , cato is correct

              Queen 2 is arguably their all time masterpiece

              put on ogre battle , fairy feller's master stroke , father to son and march of the black queen

              VERY VERY LOUD !

                then i'd get sheer heart attack - tracks to listen to are stone cod crazy , now i'm here , flick of the wrist and tenement funster

                then night at the opera - death on two legs , sweet lady , the prophet song and obv, bo rap

                day at the races - tie your mother down , long away , good old fashioned lover boy , you and i

                jazz - dead on time , let me entertain you , fat bottomed girls , don't stop me now

                live killers - get that ! play tracks 1-2 side 1 VERY VERY LOUD !!!

                then the game - dragon attack , prime jive , coming soon , play the game

                then ignore hot space - it's garbage

                then get the works - keep passing the open windows , hammer to fall , machines ( back to humans )

                then get a kind of magic - princes of the universe is worth it alone

                ignore live magic - crap

                then buy the miracle - play - was it all worth it , i want it all and breakthru

                then get innuendo - play innuendo , the rest i ain't mad about ( on that album )

                howzat ?

                  Better yet, buy them all...for the most part; the Queen albums I was never hot on were:

                  1. The Works
                  2. Innuendo
                  3. Made in Heaven

                  Outside of that, they're all pretty decent.

                    Queen

                    Queen 2

                    Sheer Heart Attack

                    A Night At The Oprea

                    A Day At The Races

                    I wouldn't get Jazz unless you were a big Queen fan. It's not something I find appealing for people who aren't Queen fans.

                    Live Killers

                    The Game is kind of confusing

                    Flash is good as a soundtrack, but as an album

                    Hot Space has a good song or 2, but ... err

                    The Works is a good album

                    A Kind of Magic had a renewed energy

                    Live Magic had too many edited tracks

                    The Miracle was like a very long single

                    Innuendo and Made in Heaven are 2 VERY emotional albums, because Freddie was very close to death by this point, yet it sounds like there is nothing wrong with him.

                    Live At Wembley is an excellent performance, but not as good as Live Killers.

                    Don't bother with the greatest hits, you can hear them on the radio all the time. Besides, some of Queen's Greatest Hits were not Queen's greatest songs.

                    There was also a compilstion called Queen Rocks, which had 17 classic Queen rock songs, plus a new song by Brian, Roger and John, brand new for 1997. That comes highly reccommended.

                        This is a box set of all the Queen albums up until 1980 (The Game)

                        It's all the Queen you'll ever need.

                            I don't agree, FORD. They made some great music past 1980.

                            Anyway, get SHEER HEART ATTACK first...IN THE LAP OF THE GODS is incredible. Also go for JAZZ...LET ME ENTERTAIN YOU is a great loud song. THE GAME is a great album...DRAGON ATTACK!!! QUEEN II is their most under-rated masterpiece. THE LOSER IN THE END and MARCH OF THE BLACK QUEEN are two of my favorite QUEEN tracks.

                              Queen 2 is one of my all-time favourite albums, possibly second to VH1.
