4 genuises, 3 magical voices, all play multiple instruments, and the one and only Freddie Mercury . 15 studio albums, and the best live rock band EVER.

Queen bassist John Deacon once said “Dragon Attack” was his favorite song to play live - and can we blame him ? He loved groovy/funky bass lines and did them well. This particular song had its roots in a jam session the band had after a drinking session at a Munich nightclub they enjoyed (The Sugar Shack, their regular hangout while recording in Munich) - guitarist Brian May took it upon himself to organize the parts of the jam and add lyrics, and so he gets the credit as Songwriter, but it was truly a collaboration of all 4 bandmates. You notice that Brian kept the *real* emphasis on the drums and bass, which drive the groove… and keeps his own guitar licks essentially decorative aside from a little bit of soloing.

He actually said well I'm not sure I should take credit for the song I just took all the best parts of the jam session and polished it up

As I understand it, this was professionally filmed over a two day concert. The film company wanted to keep crowd noise low, and issued instructions to the crowd to keep reactions to a minimum . Freddie was not happy. He was used to getting a crowd hyped. He also kept changing his look from one song to the other just to mess with the continuity. All the recordings from this concert are great quality, and worth watching. "Save Me" is another from this set.

In 91 I was in a Rehab on South Coast of England, the day he died the staff allowed us residents to switch on the news at breakfast time to hear the news of Freddie Mercury etc, 2 days later I got discharged from the rehab and hitchhiked the 300 or so miles back to Manchester. As soon as they announced the tribute concert at Wembley I paid £70 for my ticket (that was a fortune then) and what a day,its mostly a blur but still have my ticket and what still looks like a counterfeit program, but it will always be the best experience music wise that I've ever experienced.

Roger Taylor is a beast on the drums. Fun fact he has incredible vocal range, he sings the really high notes in bohemian rhapsody and most of the falsettos/high notes on their older albums, his highest note is E6 :)

John kills that bass and you can tell he is feeling that beat. This song is great because it showcases the musicians expert playing.

1981, live, no backing tracks, no autotune, no earpieces, no autocues, ahead of their time! Wish bands were like this today! You might like I'm In Love With My Car - not as goofy as you would think by the title. Queen live was unbeatable!

This is a song that doesn’t matter what the lyrics is, because the music is so good, the whole band was on fire. Freddie was the frontman, the lead singer, but they all considered themselves equal, and they never questioned each other’s talent, they were a very tight bond group. Please, check out Fat Bottomed girls at Milton Keynes 82.

Loving the Queen reactions!! You must check out “Anothee One Bites the Dust” from this same concert, Montreal 1981. ALSO, “Under Pressure”, live at Wembley 1986. They truly were one of the very few bands who were better live than in the studio. And you have to remember, back then there was no autotune or backing tracks being played. That was just pure, raw talent. Cant wait to see the next one!!
@jma717525 ай бұрын
You can watch this entire concert on KZbin. Queen Rock Montreal 1981. Definitely worth it. Also Live Aid. I like their live versions better than the studio. Keep in mind that back then they didn't have all the gimmicks they have now to make them sound better. Pure talent@

White Queen, Live at the Odeon Hammersmith 1975 written by Brian not only features Freddie's amazing vocals, but has a center section featuring their stellar instrumental talents. Well worth watching. It and Live at the Rainbow were televised by the BBC. Live at the Odion was a Christmas Eve presentation, and the song opens with Freddie and the band toasting the crowd with a glass of champaign.
