NEWS OF THE WORLD

This album for me was an improvement on A Day At The Races, the sound was more basic and stripped out but the delivery far more emphatic. Anthem songs in abundance on this album especially the first two songs ' We Will Rock You' and ' We Are The Champions', yes every American Football team has used them, every football club has used them and even boxers!!! Great branding and stunning vocals by Freddie Mercury. Brian May at his usual high level as is John Deacon on bass and Roger Taylor's pounding drums.' Get Down, Make Love' another great track. Yes they were going in a more commercial direction with this album BUT the result is an excellent album.
