Description: The Works is the eleventh studio album by the British rock band Queen, released on 27 February 1984. After the synth-heavy Hot Space, the album saw the re-emergence of Brian May and Roger Taylor's rock sound, while still incorporating the early 80s retro futuristic electro pop of the German electronic underground (Freddie Mercury) and New York funk scenes (John Deacon).
Recorded at the Record Plant Studios in Los Angeles, California and Musicland Studios in Munich, Germany from August 1983 to January 1984, the album's title comes from a comment Taylor made as recording began – "Let's give them the works!". During the decade, after a conservative reaction on and ban of the music video for I Want to Break Free in the USA, the band decided not to tour in North America and lost the top spot in US sales, but sales around the world (especially Europe) would be even better. The Works sold over 5 million copies worldwide.

At Red Edge we try and do the best possible when it comes to a decent shipping rate. Proceed to the cart to find your shipping cost.

Shipping starts of at around $10.99 for most metro, with that most commonly being 3-4 business days. The rate will increase for a quicker turn around, however we will try to keep the cost as low as possible.
Sometimes it is worth getting Red Edge Records to double check the returned freight cost if you feel something is not right with the price.
