The top 3 Queen albums as voted for by listeners of dab station Planet Rock in England.
1 A NIGHT AT THE OPERA
2 SHEER HEART ATTACK
3 JAZZ
I think it shows that most of Quen's best and consistent albums were in the 1970's. The later stuff well a great deal of it was just pop/synth crap bar 3 or 4 tracks an album. My personal favourite is Queen 2 which had just the one single on it! followed by News Of the World.

Yeah...I'll agree that Queen's more stable albums were in the 70's...but even though they were...I still love their 80's and early 90's stuff XD Queen is <3. Jazz is my favorite albummmm <333
Noticing that listeners of 'Planet Rock' voted, it is not a surprise that the 70's albums are voted better. The 80's albums are just more pop and less rock.
That said, I do agree that I like Queen's 70's albums more than the 80's too.

I found it wierd that the image of Queen in the 80s is more popular than the image of Queen in the 70s, however, their music was most recognized in the 70s while they still made music in the 80s.
Honestly, in many ways I love the music in the 80s more...they were a band that had matured. It's almost intangible, it's hard for me to explain just why I loved Queen in the 80s more. Don't get me wrong, Queen in the 70s was fantastic and a time when they experimented with so many different genres of music. You know what? Fuck it...I love Queen no matter what decade it was.
