If you're a fan of Freddie Mercury and the gang, this is a must-have edition to your music collection. Classic jams like "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Bicycle", "Fat-Bottomed Girl", "We Will Rock You", "We Are The Champions" - to name a few - are found on this double disc set. Excellent and informative inserts with factoids about the band and the music. Highly Recommended!

Queen's Greatest Hits Volumes i and 2 (a/k/a The Gold Queen Collection) was released in the US in November of 1995. Prior to its release, it was available an import in 1994 via EMI. Then to cash in on the release of Queen's final studio album Made in Heaven, Hollywood Records released this compilation in the US and Canada. Disc 1 is the 1981 Greatest Hits in its original UK tracklisting featuring "Another One Bites the Dust" which was Queen's biggest US hit which hit #1 in 1980 and a rock disco classic. Plus Queen's first US Top 10 and first UK #1 in 1975 hit out of "Bohemian Rhapsody" which reached #9 in the US in 1976 and this classic needs no explanation. We also have the band's first US #1 from 1980 out of "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" which is a classic rockabilly romp. "Killer Queen" follows and was the band's first US Top 20 hit in Spring 1975 in the US and hit #2 in 1974 . Included is the single mix of "Fat Bottomed Girls" which is a nice different version to the full album track and that was a Top 30 US hit in 1978 as was its A-side "Bicycle Race". We also have "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions" which both hit #4 in early 1978 here in the US (the tracks are separate but the US record company insisted on playing the two together) and both are classic rally cry/victory cry songs and were #2 in the UK. Also included is the single mix of the song "Flash" which was the theme to the 1980 film Flash Gordon (did well in UK but not so well Stateside). Also on this is the US Top 20 hit from early 1977/UK Top 5 from 1976 out of "Somebody to Love" which was a great gospel tinged rocker. The 1976 US Top 20/UK Top 10 hit ballad "You're My Best Friend" which was the follow up single to "Bohemian Rhapsody" on A Night at the Opera is here. Plus you have the UK Top 20/US Top 50 hit "Play the Game" from 1980, great ballad. The other tracks which were the rock radio hit "Now I'm Here" (a UK Top 20 in 1975), the classic "Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy" (a UK Top 30 in 1977 but not released as single Stateside, instead it was "Long Away" that got released and tanked), the classic "Seven Seas of Rhye" (a UK hit but stiffed here in the US in 1974)", the big UK Top 10 hit "Don't Stop Me Now" (which was well received on US rock radio but flopped on pop singles chart in 1979, Bee Gees and disco ruled the roost on singles in US) and the ballad "Save Me" (which was a UK Top 20 in 1980 but an album track here in the States as the song was not issued as a single in the US) round out the first disc. Greatest Hits II which was released in October, 1991 in the UK (and in a somewhat inferior version to some as Classic Queen in the US in March of 1992) and made its Stateside debut on this collection. It has two US Top 40 hits which were "Under Pressure" (which hit #29 Pop and Top 10 Mainstream Rock in the US in 1981) and "Radio Ga Ga" (which hit #16 Pop in the US in 1984) plus "The Show Must Go On" (which hit #2 when released in 1992 as double A-side with "Bohemian Rhapsody"'s re-release). It also has some of the band's huge US rock radio hits out of "One Vision" (here in its single edit and superior to album version on A Kind of Magic IMHO) (#20 Billboard Rock Tracks in 1985), "I Want it All" (here in its single edit) (which hit #3 on the Billboard Rock Tracks chart in 1989), "Headlong" (here slightly edited) (which hit #3 on the Billboard Rock Tracks chart in 1991) and "Innuendo" (which hit #17 on the Billboard Rock Tracks chart in 1991). Also here are songs that were hits in the UK/Europe but sadly tanked in the US which were the classics "A Kind of Magic", "Breakthru", "It's a Hard Life", "I Want to Break Free" (featured in its superior single mix) and "Hammer to Fall" (also here in its single mix). Also included here are songs that were singles in Europe but not here in the US but are great album tracks to us Yanks which were "The Miracle", "The Invisible Man", "I'm Going Slightly Mad", "Friends Will Be Friends" and "Who Wants to Live Forever". Although it didn't chart upon release in 1995, The Gold Queen Collection eventually proved a consistent seller and has gone Platinum in last decade with sales of over a million copies in the US. This is a great overview to Queen's golden period. HUGELY RECOMMENDED!

I bought this CD as NEW,and it came without plastic wrap, liner notes, and the CD was dirty. It kept skipping and I finally looked at it and it was filthy. This was NOT new, even though I paid the price for a new one. Not good! Makes me not want to do business with anybody through amazon if I'm looking for quality. You can't trust people. It's better to do it through a store and pay full price.
