Brian May, Freddie Mercury, Brady Barnett, Jason Fitz, Tom Tally, Larry Franklin, Pam Jacobson, Tom Vos - The String Quartet Tribute to Queen

No Freddie Mercury = No Good

Something about this CD is really lacking. It was on the 2nd listen through when my son pointed it out to me. The music lacks the Queen drama and passion that it gets from the vocal performances. Its definitely an acceptable CD for background music, but for the sake of pure enjoyment of Queen, I thought it was very ho-hum. September 15, 2008

WOW

I know that WOW is kind of a small word but this CD ROCKS! I have loved queen for years. I originally bought this CD for my 10 year old son who took up the violin this year and who loves queen as much as I do but it quickly became mine. I've heard some pretty bad imitations, remakes, and ripoffs. I can honestly say that this CD is none of the above.You get 10 of Queens best. 1) Killer Queen, 2) Bohemian Rhapsody, 3) We Are The Champions, 4) We WIll Rock You, which happens to be my favorite on this disk, 5)Fat Bottomed Girls, 6)Crazy Little Thing Called Love, 7) Somebody To Love, 8) Play The Game, 9) You're My Bext Friend, 10) Another One Bites The Dust. The only downside to this disk is that they left out about a hundred other songs. I sincerely hope that The String Quartet comes out with a volume 2, but why stop there. They could go on forever with just Queen Classics.
Do yourself a favor. If you like Queen and Classical Music BUY THIS CD. You won't be sorry. November 18, 2005

YES!!!!

Two words: Bohemian Rahpsody.

THey could have released a CD with only this song and I would have bought/borrowed/stolen it to get it. This song is definitely a highlight, but don't stop there, since the rest of the CD will make you want to play it over and over again.

If you've been thinking about buying a String Quartet Tribute, but don't know which to buy, I would buy this one, without a doubt. June 5, 2005
