What can you say about the Flash Gordon soundtrack? It certainly is an oddity in the Queen catalogue. It consists of a lot of synth heavy instrumentals, with only two actual songs with lyrics. The album also has a lot of dialogue snippets from the movie inserted at various points. While this is not one of the more important Queen albums, it is campy fun. A useless remix of “Flash’s Theme” has been added to the CD as a bonus track. It would have been better if the single version of “Flash’s Theme aka Flash” had been included as a bonus track, instead.
