Queen - Break Free/Machines 1984 UK 1st Press 12" Pic Sleeve VG+/VG+

QUEEN - I WANT TO BREAK FREE (EXTENDED MIX) b/w MACHINES (or BACK TO HUMANS)

Inject maximum 1980s club-rock power into your archive with this spectacular vintage 1984 12" vinyl maxi-single featuring the "I Want to Break Free" Extended Mix by Queen. A phenomenal, high-fidelity artifact from The Works era, this deep-grooved 45 RPM maxi-single is the ultimate way to experience John Deacon’s legendary anthem of personal liberation. Running at a sweeping 7:14, this magnificent extended club mix delivers an expanded, punchy synth-bass introduction and a beautifully extended acoustic guitar bridge that standard radio cuts completely omit. Flipped over, the B-side thumps with the dark, heavy synth-rock landscapes of "Machines (Or 'Back to Humans')." Complete with its iconic, vintage 1984 picture jacket, this beautifully preserved 12" single is an absolute must-have collector’s target for any serious Queen completionist or classic electronic-pop DJ.
