Freddie's best album, vocally?

Wondering what people (especially those who know more about singing than me, which isnt really saying much...lol) think what the album that Freddie sounded the best on is......

I ask because I got the re-instrumentated (think I just invented a word) version of Barcelona for xmas, and I have been listening to it quite a bit....and I'm just marveling again at how Freddie sounds on that! Like he's got extra power in his voice, or something, whatever you call it.....maybe working with Montserrat drove him to new heights?

Not sure what I would say the Queen album he sounded best on is........hm.....

Hot Space, Barcelona, and Innuendo are amazing vocal albums!

A Day At The Races is the first album where he was totally in control - power, smoothness, tone, control; all there.

Barcelona too is incredible

Yeah, ADATR is great all around :) I always loved the vocals on You And I, particularly......especially in the bridge, how hes got that bit a growl in his voice........

Yes, ADATR is tops. Another fav of mine is actually Jazz - he has this snappy, aggressive attack on everything he sings. While I might love Queen's early stuff the most, I have to admit Freddie's mid-late 70's vocals sound the best to me. Along with Innuendo, maybe.

He sounds magnificent on The Cosmos Rocks.

I have to echo what most have been saying here - Innuendo. I love his vocals on QII and ADATR too :)

The Game , Hot Space, Mr Bad Guy album Barcelona and Innuendo album, pure power!

I really like his voice from Sheer Heart Attack through to ADATR. Very rich in tone, great range, powerful and yet could sound beautiful in the quieter songs. I know everyone says he was at his best in the late 1970s but it's that period from 1973 to 1976 that does it for me. Of course, though, he was fantastic right to the end...

yeahh i gotta echo everyone here on the Barcelona album, i think its the Golden Boy where Freddie belts out a hell of a line with so much raw power!

ADATR
JAZZ
HOT SPACE

The Works
Innuendo
The Miracle
A Day at the Races

That's in no order either, I just don't think I could pick one. Each album also has a standout vocal performance.

Hmmm, hard to pick a whole album. Most constantly good, Innuendo. Here, for me, are some of his standout vocal performances (I'll try to be chronological but I'll fail)

White Queen
Bohemian Rhapsody
Love of My Life
Somebody to Love
You Take My Breath Away
It's Late
We Are The Champions
Mustapha
Dead on Time
Fun It
Play The Game
Rock It (opening)
The Kiss (those soprano notes.....)
The Hero
Flash middle section, beautiful
Hot Space whole album is a tour de force from Freddie, although it's not my favourite compositionally
Machines
Radio Gaga
Let Me In Your Heart Again (although I don't know how much of that has been manipulated on computer)
A kind of magic (song)
One Vision
In My Defence
Barcelona
The Golden Boy
The Fallen Priest
How Can I Go On
OK Pretty much the whole Barcelona LP actually.....
Breakthru
Party/Khashoggi's Ship
Was It All Worth It
I Want It All
Innuendo
The Show Must Go On
Pretty much all of the Innuendo LP
A Winter's Tale, very special sound there
as is Mother Love.

These are my personal favourites. They might change over time, but these are the vocal performances on studio recordings I think are the best.

"Hmmm, hard to pick a whole album"

But that is what the thread is about.... :/

OK. I pick a whole Queen album, not solo, for consistency, and disregard Made In Heaven because it is from so many different sources.

Innuendo is vocally the best, in my opinion.
