Not only the greatest album cover ever, but the music contained therein is as every bit as madcap, zany, ridiculous and adrenalized as the image suggests.
Grandiose and pompous, and bursting forth with a whirlwind of guitars, piano and harmonies, the songs by the brothers Mael are mini delirious symphonies beamed straight in from Planet X.
The band Queen were listening and took this same formula and sound to the top of the rock heap while Sparks remain a cult act.
