10cc. How Dare You is a fixture in my top 10 albums of all time, and their other albums up to Deceptive Bends aren't too shabby.

10cc had several nice pop songs, but Queen had several great albums. No contest.

How Dare You is a favorite but I still have a soft spot for Original Soundtrack.

Like 10CC, but love Queen. Queen is just sooo much better IMO. They have versatility and their singers are much better than 10CC's.

A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

You've obviously never heard Sheet Music, then.
One of the most brilliantly crafted albums of all time. And The Original Soundtrack is also quite remarkable.
I love Queen up to A Night at the Opera, but my vote goes to 10cc for being so clever, so innovative and so damn funny.

Here isn't anything to consider. Queen is far better. Listen to Queen II - it's fantastic stuff and as we are on progressive music site, this is probably the most progressive record Queen has ever done. If they did nothing else (and they did in fact), they would be winner here.

This---I tried to like 10cc after one of my gods (Tony Banks) said a few good things about hem--but only succeeded in liking some of their songs--Queen when it hits the mark is great.

Voted 10cc due to The Original Soundtrack (1977) and Live And Let Live (1977) which is one of my favourite 70s live albums

I'm only just beginning to explore Queen's back catalogue but already I feel that Sheer Heart Attack is a big jump forward from II. I've got A Night At The Opera and A Day At The Races on order and will probably get Innuendo soon but I guess I can stop at that point, right?

10cc has One Night in Paris and Feel the Benefit, Queen has all the other aces.
