The album that features Queen's song “Bicycle Race” is Jazz. Released in 1978, Jazz was Queen's seventh studio album and included several of the band's best-known songs from the period.
The album was recorded mainly at Mountain Studios in Montreux, Switzerland, and Super Bear Studios in France. Its title was deliberately playful: despite being called Jazz, the record is not a jazz album in the traditional genre sense. Instead, it moves among hard rock, pop, funk, music-hall humor, and theatrical arrangements.
“Bicycle Race” was released as a double A-side single with “Fat Bottomed Girls.” Other notable tracks on Jazz include “Don't Stop Me Now,” “Jealousy,” and “Mustapha.” The record followed News of the World, the 1977 album containing “We Will Rock You” and “We Are the Champions,” which is a common source of confusion.
Queen promoted “Bicycle Race” with a controversial nude bicycle event at Wimbledon Stadium. The album's cover and promotional imagery also became part of the band's famously flamboyant visual identity.
