Notes
The sixth studio album, recorded at Basing Street and Wessex Studios in London 7-9/77. It was released on 28 Oct 1977 in the UK and on 1 Nov 1977 in the US, on vinyl and tape.
The front LP cover was reinterpreted from the cover of "Astounding Science Fiction," a magazine issued in October 1953. The inside was 1st created by Hal Hefner - Fantastic Planet (1973) & then Frank Kelly was inspired to use both concepts it for the inside Queen News Of The world LP (1977)
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, adding a few non-album tracks or remixes not included on the original versions).
Parlophone released their own, in-house remasters in 1993/1994. In 2009 the entire back catalogue of studio albums (newly remastered) was re-released again, on heavyweight vinyl. The band's catalog was remastered again for the band's 40th anniversary in 2011, with digital and CD releases in standard and Deluxe Edition packages (the latter including a second disc with sparse bonus tracks) via Island Records. On November 17, 2017 the 40th Anniversary Edition of the album was released, in box set form.

Show All 68 Reviews- A mish mash of sound adventures for whatever reason but this is fine remaster and release, except for the strange decision to add a bonus mix.
- Weak sounding pressing. US pressings with Nick W. mentioned on deadwax much better with fat bottom ends, great separation and clarity,full of life and joy. Japanese records of Queen such A Day...,A Night... and this can't fill your room
- Great release. Sound is tight, clear, live etc. Authentic record. Very pleasant.
Vinyl quality is awesome for 45 years old plate - absolutely quiet. - I have had this since new. It is not a club release. It does sound excellent. Keep in mind that this was not a very well recorded album. This version captures all that you were going to get in the 70s. Art work is amazing...the pressing is amazing.
- Very good overall, some tracks are definitely stronger SQ than others. A4, A5, B3 and B5 really took me away to a place of wonder and bliss

Say. it's QUEEN...what can you say...Original 1977 release out in 180 gram VINYL and it's a half speed master...Freddie Mercury could so sell a song and their classic stuff is on this LP...How many movies have used "We Are the Champions" and "We Will Rock You"...This reissue Includes an insert containing lyrics, credits, photograph, and artwork...Forever rock right here on an excellent VINYL platform...Plop it on the old turntable and listen to the good stuff... referencing News Of The World (LP, Album, Reissue, Remastered, 180 Gram, Half-Speed Mastered) D004038601
Pressing itself is great, bass sounds great, dynamics are good, although Sheer Heart Attack's beeping section is a little bit loud to the point where it can be heard from the record needle itself.
The way the gatefold drops down instead of opening from left-to-right is a little bit annoying for people who have their currently playing record on a wall mount or something similar.
