    Never forget this whole album is created in a NON digital era. A masterpiece on his own.

    One of my favorites! Roger talks about how hard they worked on this. A technical marvel that they never performed live.

      They performed part of it live as a part of a medley. It was just as good, if not better live.

    Match of the Black Queen.... amazing, underrated, complex, beautiful, rollercoaster ride that is everything Queen. Your facial expressions are so fun to watch.... one knowing what's about to hit and the other for the first time..... it's priceless. Queen will forever be my favorite❤. Great reaction!

    🔝 3 on my Queen Fav list 🖤 Absolutely a masterpiece written by Freddie with great storytelling. In an interview in 1974, Freddie said that he began writing MOTBQ before Queen were even formed. “That song took me ages to complete. I wanted to give it everything to be self-indulgent or whatever.” John Deacon later commented “we spent ages and ages rehearsing this one. Not very easy at all, I can assure you!” In an interview in 1977 Roger Taylor recalled that “the tape went transparent. Genuinely!” Freddie added that “those were the days of 16 track studios … we did so many overdubs on 16 track, it just couldn’t take anymore. I think it snapped in about two places.” In later years Brian May regards MOTBQ as the precursor to Bohemian Rhapsody. MOTBQ is one of Queen’s finest and most important songs! ◼️➰◾️➰▪️➰🖤

    Freddie was just a passionate individual. Sensitive soul he was…but wielded tremendous business acumen. He always stuck to his guns for what he thought was right. And in most cases, he was right.

    Funny how love is a recreation of the Wall of Sound" production of Phil Spector. If you can, listen to Larry Lurex "I can hear music" ( aka Freddie and queen) you'll hear the similarities.

    Thanks, Sideways guys! Queen II is one of the most unique albums EVER -- (side black & side white) - you're heard "black queen" - check out "White Queen" - live at Hammersmith/ Odeon - the interplay between Brian on guitar and Freddie on keys is astounding (Brian song_) but also Fred's vocals, Roger's drums - one of the best ever! th-cam.com/video/f8usNj4x9NA/w-d-xo.html (sorry, forgot to mention Deaky slappin' da bass, mon!) th-cam.com/video/f8usNj4x9NA/w-d-xo.html

    And in marched the Black Cat, absolutely purr- fect timing! Did ya know Freddie adored his cats, he loved them so much because they were his children! He would phone them while on tour and spoke to them, he wanted them to hear his voice! He was truly a kind, sweet, gentle man with the gift of music. Thank you for choosing Queen for your reaction! Great job and ❤ the kitty!

    One of the few early Queen songs they never played live in its entirety due to how complex and reliant on overdubs it was. Rhapsody had a lot of overdubs, sure, but the beauty of that is that the piano/harmony break in the middle can be played separately as a pre-record, and the segue in and out of it is clean enough to do it live, as in their Wembley shows. Black Queen, good as it is, would probably lose people live.

      And to think that in their album "Queen II" they had to clarify that they did not use a synthesizer because of the people (And above all musicians) they did not believe that they were capable of recording those sounds without a synthesizer.

    So...I've been going through your Zep albums. I grew up in the 70s and almost forgot I always "Got The Led Out". I love so many bands and there were so many great freakin bands then. I am 4th out of 5. All with their own musical taste and my parents played albums a lot! Dad, Frank Sinatra and Big Bands and Mom into show tunes. .So now, I have very eclectic taste. Here is hoping it's the beginning of a bottomless rabbit hole of tunes. Cream, Stones, The Allman Bros, Steely Dan, Doobie Bros...etc. I saw the trailer for The Matrix and they used Jefferson Airplane song White Rabbit. I got major goosebumps. Thanks for great music. 😁 Adding: Chris Cornell (too many to mention plus astounding covers of..everyone) J. Geils (please before Centerfold), Def Leppard..I'll stop, for now (insert snide laughter) 🎵🎶🎵💙💜💙🤟

      They never played the whole song live. It’s impossible to recreate they said. But part of it („I reign with my left hand…) was part of the Queen medley with Killer Queen, that they often played in the 70s.
