A Day At The Races

Description

Queen’s fifth studio album and second to take its title from a Marx Brothers film, A Day At The Races is a rich and varied production that bears witness to a particularly inventive and creative period for the band, then in the midst of exploring many musical styles and genres. From the powerful “Tie Your Mother Down” and “White Man” to the delicate “You Take My BreathAway” and “You And I,” the album reveals all the facets of Queen. It also contains the huge international hit “Somebody To Love,” one of Freddie’s favorite compositions by its author, which would become the biggest single from an album ranked No. 1 in the UK and No. 5 in the US, and certified platinum in many countries.
