About this Episode

Everyone knows Queen. From their huge radio hits, to soundtracks, to hockey arenas everywhere (stomp stomp clap! stomp stomp clap!) there is no escaping them. Which made this second episode a bit of a challenge in the sense that, due to their ubiquity, Queen is a tough sell as a blindspot.

This week's What Did We Miss? takes a deep dive beyond the hits to into the albums Sheer Heart Attack (1974), A Night at the Opera (1975), News of the World (1977), and Hot Space (1982), and finds evidence of a band even wilder, weirder, and sexier than even their most eclectic singles suggest.
