while i like parts of 'the works' (especially the bonus track "i go crazy"....kicks all kind of arse), IMO it's the first queen album that sounds derivative of themselves. it sounds like some label execs urged them to re-create 'the game', and it shows on many tracks. from that point afterward, for better or worse, you can tell the band just did whatever the hell they wanted to, results be damned....
