Greatest Hits I [2 LP]

500円でお買い物でした。永遠の名盤

大好きなクィーンベスト盤を、通勤時に車の中で聴けて、とても幸せだな〜👍購入して大正解✌️

洋楽に興味がなく、当時は殆ど知らなかったが名曲揃い。

一言でいえば名盤です。永遠のグレイテスト・ヒッツです。

プライムビデオで「ボヘミアンラプソディー」を見てから購入、若い時は「いわゆる洋楽」には、全く興味が無かったですが、今になって楽しみを残しておいて良かったと感じてます。主に車を運転している時に聞いてます。

つい最近クイーンを好きになりまず購入したCDです。 導入として非常に優秀なCDでした。 歌詞カードと対訳と解説も導入に最適だと思います。

良かった

いつまでも聴いていられる名曲揃いです。

Great cd

Excelente

The best! Highly recommend Songs is greatest hit one. Enjoying. Package and color of vinyl record is red☺️

Not bad

Purchased this several years ago from Amazon and put it aside. Recently, I gave away some duplicate first pressings (bought when they were first released), which included a few Queen albums. So, I finally opened up this sealed copy. It plays great, sounds great, and I love the lineup/order of these Queen hits on both albums. However, after reading some of the negative reviews, I thought I'd offer up some tips. NOTE: I've been restoring older model turntables and record player changers for over 35 years. ● Most newer vinyl pressings, like this 2-LP set, have been remastered for mid/high to higher end equipment playback, ideally for play with a moving magnet cartridge with elliptical-bonded stylus (needle) at around 2.5 grams of tonearm weight/pressure. NOTE: Elliptical styli/needles are pricey (with cartridge). The remastering on 180 gram vinyl allows for deeper record grooves on each side of the vinyl, grooves that accentuate lows when played back with higher wattage 4 ohm to 16 ohm speakers. ● Many new all-in-one low end record players come with ceramic cartridges with standard conical styli/needles - some diamond, sapphire, or ruby-tipped. Therefore, the connical needles often do not track deeper grooves, and the result is skipping - very often in the same places on the vinyl tracks. Many cheaper players also track records at 7-9 grams of unadjustable tonearm weight, which can also cause skipping. Newer vinyl has been pressed for 2-4 grams of tonearm weight. ● Similarly, newer pressings will not play without skipping on my 1960s and 1970s record players for the same reasons mentioned above. ● I have two vintage higher end component turntables with Ortofon and Audio-Technica cartridges with elliptical-bonded styli/needles. Newer vinyl pressings play seamlessly on these, with no skipping, at roughly 2.5 grams of tonearm weight. ● I put a mid-grade cartridge with a conical needle on another component turntable, and newer vinyl pressings play great for the most part with only minimal skipping. As with the other turntables mentioned, the tonearm gram weight is set to roughly 2.5 grams of weight. ● So, from my observation and experience, it seems that new vinyl pressings have been manufactured for mid-high to higher quality audio equipment (al least regarding the phono cartridge and needle). Also, for turntables that have both tonearm weight adjustment and an adjustable anti-skate feature. Lastly, even with a higher end turntable, the mounted phono cartridge needs to be properly mounted - not tracking the vinyl at an angle - to prevent skipping and loss of sound. ● Advice: For those with lower end record players (or basic vintage players with ceramic cartridges), the best bet would be finding original or period reissue pressings that are not 180 gram and remastered. Just for fun, I have a lower end Crosley Cruiser and a Victrola Re-Spin. Both track at around 6.5 - 7.0 grams of unadjustable tonearm weight, and my vintage vinyl plays great on both. So, finding vintage vinyl at used record stores will probably be a better option than new remastered pressings for new lower end record players. FINAL NOTE: Some new vinyl enthusiasts I know have set up a new component system (mid/high turntable, Bluetooth amp with a dedicated phono input and turntable ground wire, and newer speakers at 100-200 watt peak input power). They've complained about a humming noise (feedback) and record skipping. In each case, it was because they had set up their system on a media cabinet that included putting the speakers on the same cabinet surface with the turntable. When played at even mid-level volume, the vibration of the speakers was causing both the humming noise and the skipping. Once they moved the speakers to the floor, the humming and skipping stopped.
