This fantastic six-a-side freak-out has been specially chosen to make you feel funky - to make you feel mellow - to give you all the right vibes.

So what are you waiting for? Slide out the party!!
Comments: After the much-lauded "Bohemian Rhapsody" on Volume 49, it is fascinating to hear the Poppers tackle Queen's next-but-one single, "Somebody To Love". It's almost as intricate as "Bo-Rap", and this accomplished cover version has been unfairly overlooked.
