A Message to the people at Queen

What really is funny is the fact that there were plan in the early 90s to release a couple of box sets with a couple of albums....

Seems others did like the idea

BTW I love Metallica as well and I will buy these sets, they look great!!!!

lol.

Those are great box set releases (I've already ordered both) BUT I don't believe any of these recording groups (Metallica, QUEEN, Led Zeppelin, Michael Jackson) that there are not a good many more unreleased tracks, demos, varations, instrumentals, acapellas, jams, what have you than they admit to. So I don't consider much of anything by anybody (whatever types of archival projects that have been done) at this point in history to be definitive or complete. Oh, and I fucking HATE digi-packaging. That's pussy bull shit! Not only is that bullshit but there is NO artwork on those digi-packages. So these are by no means perfect box sets...I wonder if they are limited editions like the Led Zeppelin ones are, eh?

"More of the Jazz is a really complicated piece with tons of great guitars."

The only time I have ever heard this song on the radio is when Slash appeared on Radio 2 in the UK and credited it as his favourite Queen song, due to the intricate guitar arrangement.

But the mash up of tracks from the album at the end is fucking atrocious. Self indulgent much?

The show isn't available but this is the web site and the list of song Slash chose...

Was that kind of modern at the time? Its only self indulgent in that it refers to self -or the album. Im not sure i dislike it.

The mash up of them was and or is brilliant and sticks out as a moment of brilliance in their catalog ESPECIALLY with Roger doing lead vocals which is SO amazing!!!

I believe the mash-up was intended as a way for DJs to promote for the album.
