 Queen
 Jazz (vinyl)
 Review by Gary Hill
This 1978 release from Queen, still has a very classic sound, but they were experimenting with some new directions. It had several hits, and also quite a bit of meaty music. As with the rest of their catalog, this band was always hard to pin down in terms of a genre, but I generally put them under prog, in part because they had prog tendencies, but also because of the "outside the box" aspect of their music. Whatever you call this, though, it's a strong album.
