One of my all time favorites was the music from the Flash Gordon movie. In short, Queen rocks. Silly movie, but awesome soundtrack. I wore out one of those tapes in the fourth grade, the left channel eventually disappeared from playing it on a crappy tape recorder. Actually, any Queen soundtrack music is fairly good: Highlander and Iron Eagle(?) come to mind.
Remember that One Vision song? Listen closely to the last part, where they sing "One Vision" to end the song. Listen to the delay/reverb, and although they say one vision, the echo is of them saying 'fried chicken'. Hilarious.
It's a Kind of Magic is my favorite Queen album. Besides the various songs that you and others have mentioned. I really like "Gimme the Prize" mainly because there's some quotes from Kurgan in it and a nice git of sword fighting from Highlander that goes from speaker to speaker (better with headphones) and it ends with
There Can Be Only One. An all around good albumn.
I have a question about Queen's "Flash Gordon" album. The one time I saw it on vinyl it looked like one side was stuff from Flash Gordon and the other side was a bunch of the good songs from "The Game" (
Another One Bites the Dust, Crazy Little Thing Called Love...etc.) if that's the case then that is a pretty good record.
