This album sums up the eclectic time that was the early 80's. Every time I hear this album, I always play the associated videos in my head. This was the time of 1984, with the link in to Big Brother with Radio Ga-Ga, but then at the hit of the skip button, you are whisked away into mundane domesticity, with Freddie and the guys all dragged up in I want to break free. The fear of new technology being introduced into the workplaces at the time, gives machines its almost uncanny prophetic view of the age we live in today. Crank up the volume, wind down the window, and let hammer to fall leave Sunday drivers in your wake. The first 8 tracks get the adrenaline fired up. Only to be reined in mercilessly with the final haunting solo, with Freddie accompanied with only a guitar. It seems out of place and yet this to was the time of Band Aid and the global recognition that people can make a difference, and governments had to follow. It could be said that the album is short, and I agree but in this instance, I really believe the adage, less is more! Not the greatest of all albums, but one that makes me look back fondly on those misspent days in college...
