Performance: Sonics: |
Probably the best Queen album, or one of the 2-3 best ones (and I'm not a Queen fan, but I can't avoid saying it's a very good album).
What impresses me particularly about this new release, compared to the standard CD, is the presence and weight of the drums. No, they are not overblown or boomy, but finally they sound like real drums should. All the rest is fine: good clarity, dynamics, vocals. But if have to mention one reason to own this version compared to previous ones (haven't heard the DVD-Audio, sorry, but I suspect it is just as good), it's the drums.
Another fine SHM-SACD, too bad that for some reason Universal Japan abandoned the "mini-LP" packaging in favour of a very conventional jewel case.
