Yeah had some subpar albums inbetween but Innuendo was just genuis.

They never went downhill as such, just moved on. So my vote is for Innuendo.

Why can't I vote in this poll? 
Anways, I would have chosen other ... A Kind of Magic was a really tremendously well done album. Not prog though!

To be honest, I'd say they never, ever recorded an album as brilliant as 'Night At The Opera' again. 'Day At The Races' has a very tired feel to it to these ears, but 'News Of The World' shows a more consistent and re-energised band; the only draw back is that they lost the sense of experiment...'Jazz' set a template that all their other albums over the next decade had- inconsistency. I like 'Innuendo' the best after 'Night...', and sections of 'The Miracle', but most other albums after 'Jazz' have only good singles and pretty weak album tracks, mostly. So I'll go for 'Night'...

The first four Queen albums IMO were great, but after A night at the opera things started to slowly go wrong, so my vote is for Night at the opera.
Which would you say was their last great album before going slowly downhill.
