To mark Queen’s 40th anniversary in 2011, Hollywood Records (in the US) and Island Records (internationally) launched a massive, multi-stage reissue campaign. Legendary sound engineer Bob Ludwig was tasked with remastering the entire Queen catalog from the original master tapes.

The stark, synth-heavy track gains spatial depth, making the intimate vocals feel even more immediate. : Freddie Mercury’s heartfelt tribute to John Lennon

Whether you're a die-hard completist or a skeptic of Queen’s "dance" phase, this high-resolution remaster is the definitive way to experience the album that changed the band’s trajectory forever.

The context of Hot Space is vital. Coming off the high of "Another One Bites the Dust," Freddie Mercury and bassist John Deacon were deeply influenced by the burgeoning club culture of the early 1980s. They sought to strip away the layered operatic rock of the 1970s in favor of a tighter, funkier, and more synthesized sound. For a legion of rock fans wearing denim jackets and awaiting another "We Will Rock You," this pivot was nothing short of a betrayal. Yet, listening to the 2011 remaster, the "betrayal" sounds more like a brave, forward-thinking evolution. Album Overview & Musical Shift The 2011 Deluxe
