Brain Salad Surgery and Queen Night At The Opera are both already available in 5.1 surround.  A good number of the existing 5.1 mixes are the ones showing up as new Atmos mixes, such as The Doors albums, which just showed up this week on Apple Music spacial audio. JCR 

My superficial survey of previously released 5.1 recordings, especially those that were not even 5.1 originally, is that they sound inferior in Atmos.  Yeah, there are more "effects" but they are not improvements.
