Queen Deep Dive: We're off with A Day at the Races

There's no hiding my love for this album, Queen's gorgeous and beautiful A Day at the Races. For the first time, the guys sound really comfortable and even more indulgent. We have the diversity of Sheer Heart Attack, the richness of Queen II, and the melodic and operatic tendencies of A Night at the Opera...all packed into the guys' fabulous fifth album. It's quite playful, but there are surprisingly darker moments, too.
