Queen quandry


Over the past couple of months I've turned over my entire system, one piece at a time. With each switch I'm liking my Queen CDs less and less. The problem seems to be in the discs themselves...poor recordings or poor transfers. A NIGHT AT THE OPERA (1991 re-release, Hollywood 61065-2) sounds really crappy on the first few tracks. The remixed versions of "I'm in Love With My Car" and "You're My Best Friend" are much better, but the rest of the disc is thin, and digital artifacts creep into the soundstream. A KIND OF MAGIC is a little better, but I'm still not happy with it. Any suggestions for better recordings out there? What about SACD -- is Queen in or out on that one? (No jokes, please.)

I recently purchased mofi's remaster of "The Game". Don't know if all the queen mofi remasters are the same way, but The Game wasn't all that impressive.
