I was just being annoyed by that bloody ad with the dog singing Flash, and I cast my mind back to the album. Queen were my favourite band back then, but I thought that the Flash soundtrack was pretty terrible. I guess that 'Flash' is one of their iconic songs, but I didn't like it at all. They bought a synth to do the record, and that was it for their famous 'nobody played synth' line that appeared on all their album covers, as they featured from then on. For me, the last album I liked was Jazz, I think they lost something after that.

Haven't listened to it for a while though.
I also like Hot Space.

Kind of Magic was a soundtrack too although it made for a better album.
Jazz is a cruelly underrated album!
Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

The Game had some very good stuff, I thought that Save me was an epic track, Crazy little thing was great fun, and Sail away sweet sister was lovely, with one fabulous vibrato note! Not mad on the sound/production/engineering of the album overall though.
er .... OK. [shudders, fearful expression on face]
It's definitely 'different Queen' though.

Hot Space is OK, Staying Power is a fun track. Hardly an essential album but at least I could bring myself to buy and listen to it which is more than can be said for Made In Heaven

Made In Heaven I think has some good moments... but being honest, I would need to go and listen to it again to be sure .

I need Queen, Queen II, Flash and Made in Heaven and then I will have the entire studio works of Queen (albums) on CD.
"Too Much Love" is such a great song if you've ever loved more than one woman at the same time - it does kill you!
I never really liked Queen I or II...
