Original (and reissue) vinyl - About five copies of the original YAX matrix coded U.K. Pressing; 2x USA; 2x German; 2x Portuguese ones, with the old brown and red EMI label; 2x French Green vinyl; 1x French Black vinyl; 1x Italian black vinyl; 1x Parlophone remaster (2009, was it?); 2x European green vinyl (Studio Collection boxset); 1x Black vinyl from individuals of same set. 1x bootleg picture disc from about 10 years ago. Oh, and one in the Complete Works boxset. PS. My favourite "sounding" ones are the German pressings, to me, they sound absolutely beautiful, and they've got the best designed labels, not following everyone else's faded ADATR labels with the track list on both sides, their's is like Races, with the track list only on one side, and just the crest on the other.

Cassette - 3x UK ones; 1x USA one; 1x UK 8-track cartridge;

Original CD - 2x first master CD 1988 (CDP catalogue no.)

Remastered CD - 2x second remaster (first Parlophone one 1992); 3x Japanese Mini-vinyls, from various issues and reissues of those masters (different coloured OBIs 1998, 2000 & 2002, I think). 1x Gold picture CD from wooden boxset, 1x Polish book CD version. 2011 Single remaster; 2x 2011 Remaster with bonus EP.

US Import CD - 1991 Hollywood Remaster with WWRY remix; Later card sleeve Hollywood remaster (As part of Crown Jewels boxset).

2017 Box set containing vinyl AND CD - Just ordered the one, and like everyone else, I haven't got it, yet.
2017 vinyl Picture Disc - 2x on order.

Most-bought Queen album - Greatest Hits 1, by a country mile. Everywhere I've ever been, I've tried to pick up a local copy of that album, on either/and/or vinyl, cassette, 8-track, CD, VHS & Betamax Video-tape, 12" Video-disc, CDV, and whatever else I've seen it on. Totals well over a 150 of them, probably nearer 200. I'd "guess" the rarest of them, is an Elektra "target" CD, or perhaps a test copy of the first UK CD pressing with a white backing to the normal black silkscreened writing, according to the bloke who worked at EMI Swindon, who pressed them, there's only about five of those in existence, but haven't really priced them all up in recent times.

Impressive!

In case of a nuclear war, or a period with big sunstorms, knocking out all our satellites, at least Queen's music will be safe, in form of physical formats.

Unfortunately, due to the EMP taking out anything with a micro-electric circuit, we won't have anything to play them on, except a vintage 1908 edition hand cranked Thomas Edison phonograph, complete with a small dog to sit next to the amplification cone, but still.

Or in the worst scenario, like this.
