Nothing like a good old fashion jam session, especially when Brian May says “Yes”!🎸

[@FireAngelOfLondon]

And Nuno made no attempt to hide his utter delight that Brian said that "Yes". He was obviously as happy as a kid who just got exactly what he wanted for his birthday.

[@lazyonsundayafternoon8317]

Yes

[@karljondahl682]

Yes!!

[@v3rlon]

Yes? Where is Steve Hackett or Trevor Rabin? Oh, you meant the 'other' yes :)

[@conservativeguitarsingerjs7937]

It’s not a jam session tho lol

[@bi5048]

Who else had goosebumps when Bri started to play the solo...

Me 🤓

Absolutely

[@jaxdenlayne4304]

I don't know what I had more of, tears or goosebumps. Bri is the best.

[@kenzerambo8216]

I love that they are all brilliant musicians but deep down they are fans having fun. Gorgeous guys.

[@bduff71]

Brian, this is one of the coolest versions of Bohemian Rhapsody that I've heard. It almost sounds like they are Freddie sing through the guitars. Almost brought a tear to my eye. Amazing, well done Brian

[@maxoupicsou4291]

I think it's the best versio, the most melodic

[@cha02psc]

And henceforth, everyone’s argument was forever rendered invalid. Because this won everything.

[@FireAngelOfLondon]

Of _course_ they gave you a spot Brian, didn't you hear what Nuno called you? "The Legendary Brian May". You could see how happy he was when he told us that Brian May said "yes". One of the most distinctive guitar players ever, able to play one note, slowly, and any rock guitar fan who hears it will know it's you. The only other players I can think of who can do that are all legends too, and well deserved. So you _earned_ your invitation to join this fabulous line-up. Steve Vai played some stunning expressive guitar on this track, he should slow down more often!

[@jaxdenlayne4304]

This guitar rendition of one of the greatest songs ever, is the greatest guitar rendition ever. And of course, THE SOLO by the legend himself. Need I say more?

[@ginoginnetti]

Wow! I could hear Freddie singing. Awesome 🥰

[@DatBRejectz]

All the guitarists are Nuno Bettencourt Steve Vai Zakk Wylde Yngwie Malmsteen Tosin Abasi and of course Brian May

[@tonys6700]

Awesome

[@OldSkoolBiker62]

GUITARIST Brian May Nuno Bettencourt Steve Vai Zakk Wylde Yngwie Malmsteen Tosin Abasi Totally awesome 🤟😎👌 I got into Queen in 1975 and bought everything they realised.. they are the Band that changed my music taste I went from Pop to Rock.. So I have Queen to thank for saving me from listening to dull, boring middle of the road commercial pop music.. And move onto British Rock and heavy metal and Space Rock. In 1980 I got into Hawkwind who I have followed ever since again buying everything they ever produced.. so thanks Brian, Roger, John and the master of vocals Freddie for opening the door to Rock.

Every one of those gentlemen is SO talented. Just beautiful. And of course I was waiting for you, Brian, to do the solo. When I finally got to see you in Nashville a year and a half ago, I waited for that moment then too. And listened to you & the Red Special playing it live right in front of me with tears streaming down my face. And I certainly wasn't the only one in that packed arena feeling the same way. Thank you, dear Dr. May, for posting this. Hoping you got a thrill out of the Perseverance rover's perfect landing on Mars the other day. 💙☮💫

This was wonderful, as much as I was focused on listening to the different guitars, I still found myself singing the lyrics in my head, it is compulsive. Definitely can hear the uniqueness of the Red Special sound and Brian’s absolute mastery of his art. Missed Freddie’s wrist down power stroke on the piano. Overall very fun and enjoyable!

[@shirabetty8483]

OMG～～～!!! I never expected this would happen, GOOSE BUMPS! Such a great and dramatic session, everyone is great! HOWEVER, Brian, you're heavenly, the sound of your extension arms, I LOVE you... thank you everyone. アリガトウ！

[@gunterschenk]

IMO _the_ most beautiful instrumental rendition of Bo Rap I've ever heard. What's awesome is, that this terrific joined effort of all these outstanding guitar heroes demonstrates the "artistic influence" which Brian's unique way of shaping notes and make a guitar "sing" must have had on all of them. Big Kudos to Nuno for playing his guitar like Freddie used to sing. Goosebumps.

[@vernhoke7730]

This was absolutely amazing. I was singing along with each guitar note as the voices on "A Night at the Opera". This is the second best version I've ever heard, the first....well was live in Madison Square Garden September 1980. Thanks Dr. May.

[@susancooper3111]

I remember the first time I ever SAW Brian play .... it wasn't in person unfortunately but nevertheless a significant moment ... & all that was going thru my mind as I listened & watched him play the Red Special the first time was " this man has the most beautiful hands I've ever seen "... and I was mesmerized at the sound he made come out of that guitar. It was such an atypical sound. He had me from that moment on. To this day I stare at his 👋 hands & how long his fingers actually are, and truly believe he was BORN TO PLAY A GUITAR 🎸 ❤️ . When I found out HE BUILT IT with his Dad, I smiled & thought... " of course he did " !! 😊

[@LeMouk]

Pure Candy for the soul! Any of these gentlemen have the potential to make their fingers spit flames, but everyone stays respectfully at his place, serving the music instead. So humbling! Truly refreshing to see artists of this caliber paying tribute to their hero. Brian could be more than proud! Nuno, to me, is one of the most accomplished and versatile guitar player on earth, but here, I would give special kudos to Steve… he plays so smoooooooth and expressive, it’s truly beautiful.

[@coramarquez6400]

Thank you Bri. This made me remember more of Freddie and the Queen as a grand band! Miss you all 4! Stay safe.

Love great guitarist jamming together . Especially it involves guitarist / musician extraordinaire Dr Brian May . My father in law wanted Bohemian Rhapsody played at his funeral in 1985 . And we did . I had great time holidaying with him round South East Asia for two years . He came back to England and passed away the first winter . Queen was his favourite band ,so is mine .

Somewhere in the world, there are 37 people with absolutely know appreciation for how cool this is. I mean Guitar legends just having fun while quarantined. Maybe their phones were upside down and they THOUGHT they were hitting the thumbs up button? This was incredibly cool. They should do a few more songs (maybe one from each artist?)
