Queen - Greatest Hits - 9372
Tracks
Queen's Greatest Hits compilation may just be one of the rock world's most perfect collection of songs.
More than any other rock band, before or since, Queen were both a great albums band and a great singles band. They could do it all – heavy rock, pop, opera, disco, gospel – and they did it all brilliantly.
The way those early hits were presented on this album was inspired – the breadth of Queen’s scope perfectly illustrated by the way the epic grandeur of opener Bohemian Rhapsody leads into the disco sizzle of Another One Bites The Dust.
For a generation of fans too young to have experienced the band's 70s' output first time round, Greatest Hits was their way into the band.
Greatest Hits is the UK's biggest-selling album ever, with certified sales of over six million copies. It's spent 920 weeks on the UK chart, including four weeks at number 1.
