Some hits are present ("We Will Rock You", " I Want It All" and "Fat Bottomed Girls"), while other tracks included were never released as singles anywhere (" Put Out the Fire", " Tear It Up" and "Sheer Heart Attack"). The album also contains a remake of "I Can't Live With You", with a much louder and heavier guitar and more aggressive drumming, and one new track, "No-One but You (Only the Good Die Young)", which is a gentle ballad.

It was the last original studio recording from the 1990s featuring Brian May, Roger Taylor and John ...
