|  | yea, this is mr. mercury at his best. Mercury and Caballe are a brilliant combination and it doesn't get much better than this. one of my all-time favorites along with Queen2 and A night at the
opera, much underated and is heaven for any true music fan.
| | | Freddy Mercury is brilliant, and cabelle and mercury make a perfect match. Barelona is a great piece of work, from the title track to the last track how can I go on. This is one of my favorite albums of all time, The fallin priest and the opera version of excersices in free love are brilliant. Guide me home/how can I go on are beutiful. If you wanna listen to inspiring music by this cd.
| | | Talk about rock opera! This is the only CD I know of where a rock star and an opera star recorded an entire album of duets. Oddly enough, it works. Of course, Freddie Mercury was always a bit operatic, with "Bohemian Rhapsody" being the most obvious example. In this instance, he really displays his love for opera, and although he doesn't have a classically trained voice, his vocals are really impressive here. Montserrat Caballe, on the other hand, does have a classically trained voice, and her vocals are even more impressive. Freddie and his song writing partner Mike Moran came up with some good songs for the duo to sing together. I think most Queen fans will enjoy this album, if they are open to hearing another side of Freddie. This is a lot different from a Queen album (no guitar solos here).
| | Some of Most Beautiful Contemporary Music Ever Written | |
| | I didn't know jack about Queen and even less about Mercury or Caballe but this has turned into some of the most inspiring music I have ever heard. Something so gloriously triumphant - something makes my eyes tear up at hear such perfectly placed harmonies and tight arrangements in this alchemy of pop and classical music styles. Awe-inspiring. Buy it - or at least download it!
| | | | I bought this CD with some trepidation; I love the later Queen works, but I had never heard any of these tracks anywhere. Well, it's one of my favorite CDs. It's enjoyable, and makes me feel good just hearing it. I admire Freddie for not only concieving of it, but having the balls to record and release it. I only wish he had lived longer. Not so that he could do *this* again, but so that we would hear what he would have moved on to.
