I bought it becuse it reminds me of being young, leaving home aint easy is a queen classic, I had it once on vinyl with pictures of the girls. Its not queens best album is very good, and marked a step change in direction for the band.
2 or 3 good songs, rest average to pshhhhh ggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
When hearing the title of this album, you could be immediately put off. This was Queen's way of being sarcastic I think. This album contains no Jazz music at all but a lot of rock-type music. Theres the super hits of Fat Bottomed Girls, Bicycle Race and Don't Stop Me Now, coupled with the smooth Jealousy and In Only Seven Days, and also the down-right weird - Mustapha.
This album was one of the first to move away from the early 70s style which was not the fashion at this point. It's worth getting if you are intested in hearing some of the songs that Queen created at the same time as these hits. I will say though, that if you have an old vinyl player, it will be worth getting the LP with the poster insert included as this is becoming rare (the poster contains naked ladies from the Fat Bottomed Girls shoot and people usually sell the LP and keep the poster). Unfortunately, the CD doesn't even include a photo of this!
