Queen Deep Dive: It's A Kind of Magic - Tater Thoughts

What this episode covers

After Queen's The Works in 1984, the band wanted a break. But the success of Live Aid led to fresh developments, and an opportunity to contribute songs for the film Highlander. Those invigorating and energized songs shaped the boys' 12th album, the pop rock celebration A Kind of Magic. The first digitally produced Queen album, its plethora of synthesizers didn't impress some critics. But fans' affection reigns supreme, and it resulted in Queen's final (and in some ways, most memorable) tour with Freddie.
