Queen - A Night at the Opera
Released: 1975
It cost more to make than most 1975 films, and its lead single was nearly six minutes of mock opera. Queen’s great gamble became rock’s most audacious triumph.
A Tribe Called Quest - The Low End Theory
Released: 1991
Jazz bassist Ron Carter vetted the lyrics for cursing before playing a note, a founding member left mid-session for culinary school, and a 19-year-old Busta Rhymes stole the closing track.
ABBA - Arrival
Released: 1976
A demo called 'Boogaloo,' a royal wedding gala, and a helicopter photo shoot turned ABBA's fourth album into three of the biggest singles of the decade — and, in 2024, a Library of Congress induction.
Queen - Greatest Hits
Released: 1981
Assembled from six years and four producers as a Christmas stopgap, it took 39 years to crack the US Top 10 — and is now in more than one in four UK homes.
The Smiths - The Queen Is Dead
Released: 1986
No manager, a lawsuit with their own label, and a 20-minute jam on a new wah pedal: the Smiths made The Queen Is Dead in a Surrey mansion and it reached No. 2.
