Album Description & Collectors information:

Queen's album "The Miracle" was released in 1989 on Parlophone records. This 12" LP vinyl album contains 10 tracks that showcase the band's unique blend of rock, pop, and opera.

The album opens with the energetic and upbeat track "Party", which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song features Brian May's signature guitar riffs and Freddie Mercury's powerful vocals. The next track, "Khashoggi's Ship", is a commentary on the arms trade and features a memorable guitar solo by May.

One of the album's standout tracks is "The Miracle", which was released as a single and reached the top 10 in several countries. The song features a memorable piano intro by Mercury and showcases the band's trademark harmonies.

One of the album's most touching moments comes in the form of "Was It All Worth It", which was the final song that Mercury recorded with the band before his untimely death in 1991. The song features a reflective and emotional performance by Mercury, who questions whether his success was worth the sacrifices he made.
