Discography About The Record:

 Queen’s fifth studio album, was recorded at Sarm East, The Manor and Wessex Studios between July and November 1976. It was the first to be self-produced - the preceding four LPs were co-produced with Roy Thomas Baker (and John Anthony on Queen) – and was engineered by Mike Stone.

The album followed its predecessor A Night At The Opera in taking its name from a film by the Marx Brothers It was released on December 10th 1976 and peaked at No 1 in the UK, Japan and the Netherlands. In America, issued a week later, it reached No 5 on the US Billboard album chart and became Queen's first American album to achieve Gold status – and subsequently Platinum.

Like A Night At The Opera – which many think of as its sister album - A Day At The Races is greatly diverse on all levels, exploring all kinds of musical styles and genres; from the heavy Tie Your Mother Down and White Man, to Freddie’s delicate You Take My Breath Away and John Deacon’s You And I. It has been stated many times over the years, by Brian and Roger mostly, that the band saw this album more a less a continuation of the previous LP. Indeed, so much so, that the two might even have been released simultaneously. A Day At The Races finds Queen during a highly inventive and motivated period. All four members are writing and creating at a furious rate and within four months they produce several of their most acclaimed recordings, best loved singles, and, in the minds of many, one of their finest and most complete albums. The artwork for the album was similar to the A Night At The Opera album but in a contrasting black, with a new depiction of the Queen crest on the cover.
