Queen - The 12'' COLLECTION (1992)

The 12″ Collection is a compilation album by the British rock band Queen, featuring extended mixes and remixes from several of their singles originally released in 12-inch vinyl format, including the single version of "Bohemian Rhapsody". 
Released in May 1992 exclusively as part of the limited-edition Box of Tricks box set, it was distributed only via mail order to members of the International Queen Fan Club by Parlophone Records. 
Recorded between 1975 and 1991, the album has a total length of 70:04.
The album spans Queen's career from 1975 to 1991, including the single edit of "Bohemian Rhapsody" alongside extended versions of hits such as "Radio Ga Ga", "I Want to Break Free", and "A Kind of Magic". 
Produced as a fan club exclusive, The 12″ Collection highlights the band's signature blend of hard rock, pop, and operatic elements in longer, dance-oriented formats popular during the 1980s.
