Innuendo is the fourteenth studio album by the British rock band Queen, released on 4 February 1991 through Parlophone in the United Kingdom and Hollywood Records in the United States. Produced by David Richards and Queen, it was recorded between March 1989 and November 1990. In the spring of 1987, Freddie Mercury had been diagnosed with AIDS, although he kept his illness a secret from the public and denied numerous media reports that he was seriously ill. The band and producers were aiming for a November or December release date in order to catch the crucial Christmas market, but Mercury's declining health meant that the release of the album did not take place until February 1991. Stylistically, Innuendo has been regarded as a return to Queen's mid-1970s period of bombastic rock and lavish production. The album cover was designed by Queen and Richard Gray. The booklets and single covers from the album are inspired by illustrations by 19th century French artist Jean-Jacques Grandville. Innuendo was supported by the singles "Innuendo", "Headlong", "I'm Going Slightly Mad", "These Are the Days of Our Lives", and "The Show Must Go On".
