As a Queen fan I have a number of their albums, to listen to in the car when I am alone, so the volume can be what suits me as well as the track that I am listening to. this CD has tracks that I never tire of listening to and is actually a second copy that has been set aside in the same box that has my life insurance polices and a copy of my will and instructions for tracks to be played at my funeral.

Most people buying this will presumably have owned it before and if like me buying it again just to get a few extra out-takes or remixes. As a 50 year old with an average (Bose) system and perhaps my hearing not as good as it was I find it very difficult to hear any major difference in the remastered sound other than it being louder than my 1991 issue! As an avid Queen fan it has always been one of my favourite albums and I am always eager to hear the unreleased stuff but reluctant to pay the high price for these bonuses. The original album is a brilliant mix of heavy (The Hitman), hard rock (Headlong, Ride The Wild Wind), hard rock ballads (These are The Days..Don't Try So Hard, & Bijou), pop (I'm Going Slightly Mad)gospel (All God's People), anthemic (Innuendo, The Show Must Go On) plus Delilah & I Can't Live With You. The bonuses-are they worth the extra? I Can't Live With You-available on Queen Rocks-a great version but already owned. Lost Opportunities-B side already owned and not a classic Queen track-probably more fitting on a Brian May solo album. Ride The Wild Wind-with Roger being my favourite member of the group this early version is worth the money-a brilliant glimpse of how a Queen song develops-can listen to it again and again. I'm Going Slightly Mad-Mad Mix-another glimpse of how different a song can be with another mix-love the original and love this one to. Headlong-another good insight into the development of a Queen song, Overall having so far got 9 of these deluxe versions this ranks as the best value together with Queen 1 as the bonus tracks are sufficiently interesting and different and complete enough to warrant being issued. Now going for £23 in my local HMV don't believe it is worth that but if you can pick it up for around £12/13 worth a punt-if not avid Queen fan just get the normal version for around a fiver.Read full review

Queen was a great band and they will live on forever, who can believe that Freddie has been gone for 19 years when you hear him singing it is as if he is still alive and I wish he was because there would have been a lot more records recorded. Innuendo is fantastic especially as it is their last album made before freddie's death, I just love his voice anyway he has a great range and Queen are missed and I wish I had been to one of their concerts - they are and were the best!!!
