Notes
Released originally in 1974 on vinyl and tape.
US releases with 'butterfly' labels: 1st issued as Queen II. The variation Queen II has the same label type showing the 'Queen' logo, a special font on top of label is also seen on the RCA Club Queen II, with Los Angeles address instead of New York, and Warner Communications text. Additionally issued with 'butterfly' labels, with plain 'Queen' text on top: Queen II / Queen II / Queen II.
The 1st UK edition Queen II shows '℗1974 Trident Audio Productions Ltd.' as text on both labels (1 o'clock).
An intermediate pressing Queen II shows '℗1974 Trident Audio Productions Ltd.' on label A and '℗1974' located below the Trident logo on label B.
The 2nd UK edition Queen II has side indicators still positioned below the spindle hole but '℗1974' is located below the Trident logo on both labels.
None of these original editions come with "CREST DESIGN (c) QUEEN PRODUCTIONS LTD 1975" on the rear cover, inner cover or either side of the inner sleeve. Corners of inner sleeve has been angle cut.
On subsequent editions side indicators are positioned above the track list on labels, while '℗1974' and publishers appear below the Trident logo.
Officially, the entire back catalogue was re-issued for the first time on CD in 1986, and again on CD/tape in remastered form in 1991 for the US market (via Hollywood Records and adding a few non-album tracks or remixes not included on the original versions).
Parlophone also re-issued the remastered versions in 1993/1994, and subsequently several additional re-remastered versions (some in 5.1 DTS) have appeared.
Starting 2009, the entire back catalogue of studio albums (newly remastered) was re-released again, this time on heavyweight vinyl. CD versions appeared in 2011 as standard and "Deluxe Edition" (the latter including a 2nd disc with sparse bonus tracks).
