JAZZ

Another year another album. I cannot stress enough how good the bands were in the 70's and 80's for consistently high quality music year in year out. Jazz arrived in 1978 after the great News Of The World and did not fail to deliver. A very solid all round album my only argument being perhaps the first five songs of such high quality they relegated the remainder of the album into obscurity. Not saying that songs like " Dead On Time' and ' Dreamer's Ball' are bad, far from it, but how can you dismiss the excellent ' Mustapha' and ' Fat Bottomed Girls'? A very good release yet again from Queen and worthy of three and a half stars.
