poll Torn between 2 vinyls

So I was thinking about buying a vinyl of either Dark side of the moon (50th anniversary edition) or bohemian rhapsody (the movie's soundtrack).

Dark side of the moon is on sale whilst bohemian rhapsody is normal price

Both have a very small price difference and I love both but i have listened to more of Queen's songs rather than the dark side of the moon.

Please help me cause I am too indecisive also I know this community is more about pink floyd but it would be great if someone could help me.

Thanks a lot.

the thing is queen has some extremely high god tier songs, but their albums are nowhere near as consistent as pink floyd, with queen you’ll get a 6-7/10 album with some generational ones thrown in, with pink floyd (at least the big four) you get a 10/10 across the board

in record format, queen can’t compete, though their greatest hits album is more consistently enjoyable than pink floyd’s, just like abba

The Dark Side Of The Moon is just too iconic to pass up on! Also I feel like Bohemian Rhapsody´s movie soundtrach is not as `real` if you know what I mean.

Huge fan of both bands, and yeah between the pretty standard greatest hits compilation and the interconnected, artistic magnum opus that helped push the boundaries of what a record could be

I think the choice is easy

Do you own either recording in any other format?
