The 12" Collection CD question

Does anyone know why every single song on this release runs about 1% too slow? The only ones I see documented on most fan sites are I Want To Break Free and Hammer To Fall (the 2011 Works remaster has the "correct" version but QueenVault thinks it's a mispress), but everything on there is incorrectly mastered.

This could easily be fixed by speeding them up by 1% in Audacity (pitch included), but has anyone noticed any pitch gliches in CMI's "remaster" series?

Only 'The Works' songs. Not all.

Hammer To Fall, No One But You, Another One Bites The Dust (there may be more) all had their speed (and therefore pitch) altered at the mixing stage, so they're not A440...
Dead Daddy Long-legs. I'm still drinking it.

By the way, the "Bohemian Rhapsody" version from this album is as good as the original!

The instrumental version of Seven Seas Of Rhye from the 2011 remaster plays at the same speed as the Rock Band rip, both are slightly faster than the album version (2011 release)
Don't shun it!

SSOR album version mastered slower than recorded.
