I personally think that Queen II is their best album. I also find it to be one of their most ambitious and electric albums. It has a very unique blend of progressive rock, heavy metal and complex harmonies, which became a hallmark of their sound. Songs such as "The March Of The Black Queen" and "Seven Seas Of Rhye" showcase the band's creativity and musical range. It's definitely in my opinion a progressive rock and heavy metal masterpiece of an album. I'd love to hear your thoughts on what you think is Queen's best album
Apart from the gay stuff, is there any Freddie and/or Queen related stuff of interest? I happen to be going there next March...
Thanks
Just Incase they stop selling it
Hello all I’ve been making stuff for many years and this one has been talking to me for some time. Let me know what guys think of it. Thank you.
I had this question for a while now, but what song by some of the modern "divas" like Lady Gaga or Ariane or Celine, would you like to have heard done by Freddie ? Or what song do you think Freddie would absolutely nail? I came up with the question when I heard 'Freedom' by Beyonce again, the other day for reference.
Soon will be my birthday on 18 nov. I am planning to buy some records, here is my list.
Queen Rock Montreal
Queen limited edition cool cat pink single vinyl
Sheer heart attack
Led Zepplin IV

Unfortunately I was will on the day but hope you can rate for me guys 😭 Also youtube somewhat degrades

Hello Brian: My name is Lane May I live in Alabama USA Do you have any information how the May family migrated to the US you could give me. I am a big fan. Thanks
Great song, but I always felt like Freddie's voice sounded different in this track. Only now managed to pinpoint it - the reverb. I can't help but find it distracting!
I'm assuming it's something to do with the track only being finished 20 years after it was recorded?
I kind of wish there was a non-reverb version so we could hear what it would have sounded like in that classic 1984 Queen production sound.
Probably a silly question and I hope it hasn’t been asked or answered before but are the drum tracks on the new remix re-recorded? I know they can do a lot to the audio these days but they just don’t quite seem to have enough the same flow
Last year I was able to get an original copy of Queen's debut album of 1973. Last week I received the 2024 edition in the mail. What do you think of the new edition?
