Music reviews of Absolute Greatest (2 CD Slipcase Version) (2009 Remasters)

Music Review: Hoping "Absolute" means it's the last GH compilation!
Rating: 3 Stars

Still not sure what the "2009 Digital Remaster" could really mean. It doesn't even mention it anywhere on the packaging itself. They sound pretty much the same. The vinyl reissues from the past two years sound better. Seven Seas Of Rhye seems a little clearer, but it could just be me. There also seems to be something different about the last gong crash at the end of Bohemian Rhapsody. It seems to be quieter or it fades out a little earlier or something.

If you want to start listening to Queen music, start with the albums! If you like their '80s sound, start with '80s albums like The Works or The Miracle and if you like their earlier sound, start with Queen II and Sheer Heart Attack. If you absolutely want only their greatest hits, do not start with Absolute Greatest.

The commentary was interesting, but still a lot of the same stuff Queen fans already know about and things they mentioned on the commentary to the video collections on DVD. The packaging leaves much to be desired. Even the plastic case seems flimsy and not the same quality as previous releases.
