Reviews
3 Stars - Good - "...Even 'Bohemian Rhapsody' pales into significance next to the epic eight-minute toss of 'The Prophet Song'...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Listening again to A NIGHT AT THE OPERA is a reminder of the extent of the band's barmy diversity.", "It's a record to which all four contributed fine songs, and one of extremes -- among the crashing rock and proggy wigouts were love songs, acoustic whimsy, a trad-jazz pastiche and a brace of vaudeville show tunes.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "A NIGHT AT THE OPERA gave Queen their first Number 1, houses 'Bohemian Rhapsody,' and includes everything from spaced-out prog-rock to '30s-era vaudeville...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "Containing not one but two monumental epics, and gorging on grandiose gestures galore, A NIGHT AT THE OPERA secured itself instant classic status.", "...An imperial extravaganza, a cornucopia; a band of hungrily competitive individualists on a big roll of friendship and delight...", Ranked #2 in Q Magazine's "10 Essential Reissues of 2006.", Ranked #41 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums", 4 Stars Out of 5 -- "'sweet Lady' Bites with the Ferocity of the Most Grizzled Heavy Metal..."
