Hi everybody.
I'll be back after a while to post some album reviews: today it's the turn of 'A Day At The Races'. This review, entitled Queen Re-visit Queen and Barry Cain re-visits the review, was published in the British music magazine Record Mirror on December 18th, 1976, just over a week after the album's release in the UK. Barry Cain, author of the review, refers to a not particularly commendable 'last review' (could be the one written by Nick Kent of the New Musical Express published on the same day? (queenchat.boards.net/thread/3864/races-review-musical-express-december) but probably not); however, this review is also not entirely positive. Cain argues that the album is a revisitation of 'A Night At The Opera' and that nevertheless it is a good album, but not great.
Below the scan. Enjoy the reading.
