I know that most of America kind of gave up on Queen after "The Game". I might have too, except I had a friend in high school and college who was a dyed in the wool Queen freak. He pretty much forced me to listen to every new Queen album that came out. I'm glad he did that, for two reasons. One is that every album had some killer tracks on them. The other reason is more personal. Shortly after college my friend was killed in a car crash. He was the first friend that I ever lost and it was tough to handle. To this day, whenever I listen to Queen I think of Eric and all the great times we had. I will buy this box for sure.

yeah... hmm.. I don't have a lot of desire to see/hear these. There's a few select songs from their last 5 that I like, but overall, the last Queen release that I really got into was (surprisingly enough) the Flash Gordon soundtrack.

Aww that's really a great story.

Well then I'd say you're missing out, Lynch. At the very least you should give "Innuendo" a chance.

Innuendo was ok. I think it very well may have been the last "album" I bought as a cassette. I remember it being decent, but I haven't listened to it for years and I don't remember it really ever impressing me much.

My last real favorite Queen track was on the previous album... I Want It All. This song will always be in my top 10 favorite Queen tunes.
