"the group has some annoying weaknesses, notably a tendency toward lyrical abstraction. In addition, the imagination that inspired the slick ragtime jazz (with vaudeville overtones) of Sheer Heart Attack’s “Bring Back That Leroy Brown” becomes obsessive on A Night at the Opera, where the same stylistic idea is reworked, into three songs" -The Rolling Stone
Each song on this album is unique both to every other song on the album and every other song Queen has ever made. Bohemian Rhapsody is one of, if not the, best song ever made and to discount the album it appears on as "obsessive" and to classify Queen as a slick ragtime jazz band is both grossly incorrect and offensive.
