          This is a great album and a lot of people (especially those who never liked Queen until NATO) hate this album.  I at first never liked it; in fact, at first it made me puke!  Then I sat down and listened to it, it was great, the guitar, the harmonies, everything.  I know a lot of long-time Queen fans will agree with me on this one, this album alone defines what is pure Queen.  Queen’s sound definitely evolved many times after this, but it defines Queen by simply the diverse musical talents and styles shown in this album.  It also defines Queen by saying that they were not going to sound like the rest of the mainstream rockers of their time.  This album is highly recommended for someone new to Queen, it has sometimes been defined as “progressive rock” or “alternative rock”. Almost every track is great listening to; the only ones I can’t stand are The Night Comes Down and Jesus because they just seem to go on and on and on and to tell you the truth, they are not that “fun” to listen to.
