Roland Kirk meets the shuffle ...
The Works
Released February 28, 1984 .. they quasi "come-back" album. After the experimental, dance-heavy Hot Space (1982), the album marked a return to their classic hard rock sound with 1980s synthesizers and electronics. The name originated from a comment by Roger Taylor at the start of the sessions: "Let's give 'them'em the works!" #queen #theworks #80srock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #freddiemercury #brianmay #rogertaylor #johndeacon
For #WorldRadioDay last week we went with the radio theme, how did you on? Did you manage all three? It was a bit british centric I'll admit that.
More questions as always on Friday.

Retro-Kalenderblatt vom 22.01.:
Das 10. bzw. 11. Studioalbum von #Queen #TheWorks (mit/ohne "Flash Gordon"), war wieder etwas rockiger und wurde in L.A. & München aufgenommen. Nachdem in den prüden USA das Video zu "#IWantToBreakFree Negativschlagzeilen nach sich zog, verzichtete die Band auf eine Nordamerika-Tour. In Europa war die Platte ein Riesenerfolg und 93 Wochen in den UK Album Charts, so lang, wie kein anderes Queen-Studioalbum.

24 #QueenAreTheChampions day 6️⃣
Back from being sick and "I am in the stadium", methaporically speaking.
I called day 6 "I am in the stadium" because the bonus album "On Fire" is really a great live stadium album, and the next album on the agenda is very much stadium rock.
Now @buffyleigh made the observation that they have some few industrial songs in their catalogue. I never realized this, but it's very true.
One song which is almost industrial-pop is the opener of their grand 1984 album. I love the video, where our champions drive/fly through Fritz Lang's Metropolis.
