Queen – A Night At The Opera

The sound is clear but unfortunately my copy is littered with lots of hiss.

Extremely obvious on bohemian rhapsody which is a shame.

Vinyl is incredibly flat, quiet with a very expansive soundstage. A+++++

That's the review.

Though the record is beautiful, the sound is horrible. I can think of this release only as some aesthetically pleasant gift

Got this in around the same time as I bought the studio collection box set from someone here. This pressing is every. It's every bit as good as the half-speed remaster of the box set to my ears. I feel blessed to have both, but I'll be damned if this isn't the one I reach for the most because I don't feel like lugging out the whole box set. The packaging is top notch and the vinyl is beautiful to look at under any light.
If you are on the fence, just but it. No matter the cost, it's money very well spent if you are a fan of Queen and this album holds a place in your heart.

So I managed to get 2x of the newer VMP100 repress in 2021. Waited > a month to receive them.cBoth came wrapped, noisy, skipping, seam split, inner sleeves torn, very tight outer sleeve & very poor packaging for an international shipment. In short, 100% UNPLAYABLE. Looking at my cartridge dancing on the disc surface like a joker laughing at me. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

Great sounding pressing, great looking packaging. Record itself looks gorgeous as well.

The hype is real. Remaster is phenomenal. Beautiful packaging and vinyl color. Immediately one of my favorites of my collection.

Absolutely floored at the remastering and presentation. From the start it jumps out of the speakers. I’ve got a bunch of mofi and analogue productions releases and this is right up there in sound quality

Really nice pressing. Everything looks beautiful and is high quality. Sound is much more cleaner, beefier and dynamic than original pressings, though rhythm section is more up front, which is a little weird. Messrs. Mercury and May are still the stars, though, and this will be my go-to copy. Zero surface noise. Very happy with this.

This pressing has excellent dynamics, crystal clear with no surface noice, dead flat pressing, it's really one of the best pressings from my collection. It's expensive but when you want the best Queen album on the best version available? .... look no further. Buy with confidence. 🎶🎵❤️ 🎶🎵

A Night at the Opera is the fourth studio album by the British rock band Queen, released on 21 November 1975 by EMI Records in the United Kingdom and by Elektra Records in the United States. Produced by Roy Thomas Baker and Queen, it was reportedly the most expensive album ever recorded at the time of its release.[1] The album's title is taken from the Marx Brothers film of the same name.

A Night at the Opera was recorded at various studios across a four-month period in 1975. Due to management issues, Queen had received almost none of the money they earned for their previous albums. Subsequently, they ended their contract with Trident Studios and did not use their studios for the album (with the sole exception being "God Save the Queen", which had been recorded the previous year). They employed a complex production that extensively used multitrack recording, and the songs incorporated a wide range of styles, such as ballads, music hall, dixieland, hard rock and progressive rock influences. Aside from their usual equipment, Queen also utilised a diverse range of instruments such as a double bass, harp, ukulele and more.

Upon release, A Night at the Opera topped the UK Albums Chart for four non-consecutive weeks. It peaked at number four on the US Billboard 200 and became the band's first platinum-certified album in the US. The worldwide sales for the album are over six million copies. It also produced the band's most successful single in the UK, "Bohemian Rhapsody", which became their first UK number one. Despite being twice as long as the average length of singles during the 1970s, the song became immensely popular worldwide.

Contemporary reviews for A Night at the Opera were mixed, with praise for its production and the diverse musical themes, and recognition as the album that established Queen as worldwide superstars. At the 19th Grammy Awards, it received Grammy Award nominations for Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Duo, Group or Chorus and Best Arrangement for Voices. Retrospective reviews have hailed it as Queen's best album, and one of the greatest albums in rock music history. In 2020, Rolling Stone ranked it at number 128 on its list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.[2] In 2018, it was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
