I watched a video today where Rick Wakeman was interviewing Brian May. They were chatting about the different bands he was in prior to Queen, blah, blah, blah, and Rick asked Brian how he chose Roger Taylor to be his drummer. At the audition, they were in a college music room and Roger was setting up his drum kit. He was hitting each drum around the edges in a fast, ba ba ba ba, almost like a marching band cadence. Brian asked him what he was doing and Roger replied, "I'm tuning the drums." Brian said that he'd never seen someone tune a drum kit before. When he was playing, he would use that cadence style when he hit the snare where most great drummers hit it once, Roger would hit it 4 times. When he hit a cymbal, he would strike a drum at the same time. Roger was unique in his style. That's why he is a legendary drummer. I love you guys. Keep spreading the love.

It's Late is a masterpiece. Frieddie's highest note. A whistle note, but still.

The "baby you.ve been had" starts Lilly of the valley, which is weird in isolation and flick of the wrist ends abruptly, which is unpleasant. This album was mostly Freddie 's stuff as Brian was in the hospital with hepatitis(I believe) to r some other debilitating disease. But he does open the album with Brighton rock. This is my personal favorite album. It's all over the place and wild. (Bring Back)Leroy Brown is super uptempo and fun.

Lily of the Valley is sublime.

Flick of the Wrist is definitely a song you have to hear many times to listen to the bass, the guitars etc. Well done guys.

First time hearing Tenement Funster was totally the weirdest thing for me - Roger started it like it was gonna be a folk song and then BOOM rock and self-homage lyrics that would not be out of place in gangster rap. Definitely one of those “What just happened?!” moments Queen love to spring on you. I read Flick of the Wrist as the “Oh shit we made a deal with the devil” moment - when they realized they were in trouble but hadn’t yet found the way out. Death On Two Legs in contrast is the scream of freedom, you know? Lily of the Valley is just plain lovely, though it’s sort of a farewell to the fantasy world too, isn’t it? After disillusionment perhaps. I don’t think there are any songs set in Rhye after it.

@mollyfrom5556

I love your "self-homage lyrics...gangster rap" comment so much!! However, I've always thought that Roger intended these to be amusing lyrics about what a younger, wannabe rock star might say or think about fans and neighbors, and trying to be a "real individual" and so on. Having been in bands since he was seven years old, I think Roger had a clear view of the balance between the music they wanted to play and the show business practicalities of selling the number of albums they wanted to sell--such as keeping his hair as blonde as it was in his childhood, even though at first he had to dye it himself, and agreeing with Freddie about their clothes and image--while Brian was known to often wear a cardigan sweater on stage! I think it must have bothered Roger sometimes be underestimated as a musician, singer and writer just because he was using his looks as well as his talent.

It’s Late👍 Queen just doesn’t get better than It’s Late - a masterpiece.

According to a Brian May interview in 1999, lily of the valley was about Freddie “looking at his girlfriend and realising that his body needed to be somewhere else.” And I think that’s really emotional and deep and personal.

Thanks Andy and Alex for another great vidéo! Sheer Heart Attack it's the third studio album released in 1974, great album ! I bought it in 78 , I was 12, yes I am an "old" fan hahaha. It took Queen to a whole new level, helping to propel them from a support band on a US tour to a world headliner. Recorded between july and september 1974, at four different studios, there were considerable challenges during the making of the album. Mid-way through Queen's first North American tour, one that start in avril 74 (as a support band of Mott The Hoople), Brian May fell ill with hepatitis which resulted in the Spring tour of America being cute short. May recovered, the work continued in the studio before he fell ill again. The other three members overcame the issues by leaving spaces in the songs for May's solos. - udiscovermusic, behind the album, Max Bell - Roger Taylor's " Tenement funster " is one of his rock'n'roll rebellion numbers, complete with echo guitars, a delightful bass line. "Flick of the wrist" is a darkly sinister tale from Mercury. It's a reflection of their increasingly strained relationship with their management. ( It will be followed in the next album A night at the Opera by Death on two legs ) . "Lily of the valley " : for a band who were frequently mocked for being shallow, there were plenty of hidden depths, at least on Mercury delicate Lily of the Valley. A deeply personal Freddie moment regarding his life. This song as in Queen II evokes also, Mercury imaginary world of Rhye, its Seven Seas and its King . " Freddie's stuff was so heavely cloaked, lyrically " Brian May said in 1999. " But you could find out, just from little insights, that a lot of his private thoughts were in there, although a lot of the more meaningful stuff was not accessible. Lily Of The Valley was utterly heartfelt". - Classic Rock, Dave Everley - " Lily of The Valley as In The Lap Of the Gods, is typical of Freddie "world vision" [ ...... ] His comprehension of the rhythmics structures was phenomenal. He was a brilliant musician, most people forget about that, they only remember his flamboyant persona and his wardrobe." said Roger Taylor ( for that matter you need to see the making of One vision, or We are the Champions 😉. ) - Queen Baroque'n'roll, M.E Konigson - Btw Queen is the only group in wich every member has composed a #1, all four members were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2003.

Here is my list of some lesser reacted to tracks. Ones that not everyone will have heard and some that you guys really do need to hear. Brighton Rock. .... from the Live Killers album. In the Lap of the Gods. Stone Cold Crazy. Doing All Right. Bring Back That Leroy Brown. One Vision. ..... the documentary Making Of One Vision. It's Late. Drowse. Dreamer's Ball. Rock It (Prime Jive). Jealousy. Lazing on a Sunday Afternoon & Seaside Rendezvous as they are both rather short songs. You & I. Modern Times Rock 'n' Roll. My Melancholy Blues. More of That Jazz. The Miracle but you simply must watch the official video.

That was tough for you two. You seemed a bit confused part of the time. Flick of the Wrist is considered the big brother to Death on Two Legs, but it doesn't thematically go with the other two songs. They blended the tracks on the album, but I'm not sure why - I should research that. Tenement Funster is Roger Taylor being a rock 'n' roller and bragging about it. Fun song. Lily of the Valley goes back to Seven Seas of Rhye (Rhye being the world Freddie created). The lyrics hold a message beneath, but I think it's deeply personal to Freddie himself. We, your subscribers, are recommending songs to you based on our own tastes and as you know, everyone's tastes vary. I personally wouldn't have recommended these songs just yet, but that's just me.

I just got an original US pressing of Sheer Heart Attack on vinyl so I've been distracted with that, but I'm certainly glad I didn't miss your review. You've spoken on Roger's deal before. I think Tenement Funster really expresses the rebellious and youthful spirit of Roger's songwriting at that time in his life. I love the line, "being poor and young and crazy." they were very poor and very young at the time, certainly. It's never easy in any era lol. Great review.

Flick of the Wrist and Lily of the Valley are my favourite songs ever. Thank you for doing this video.

I get utubes reasons, kinda...I mean it was 1985! I'll spare further thoughts, there are plenty of good viewer comments). Thank you two again for maintaining a solid and enjoyable channel!

Great catching up with you guys in your early vids. Queen often ran songs into each other. You reacted to Prophet's Song on another video - that ended a bit abruptly, partly because they merged Prophet's Song into Love of My Life. The bridge between the two songs is just so tasteful, segueing cato and acoustic guitar, into piano using the same musical theme but transitioning perfectly from one song to the next. Worth going back and just listening to how perfectly they blended two really different songs.

A fantastic example of just how amazing all of the members in Queen are/were. Roger's voice is just fantastic-- he has such a unique voice. Not only an awesome drummer. And John`s performance on guitar, so very, very cool. Its just so great hearing them showcase their various talents. Thanks for the reaction.

I agree with you guys, Flick of the Wrist is the standout here. But I would usually just listen to it alone. The live version at The Rainbow Theatre is the best. The song is heavier in the live version. I personally like it a little bit more than Death on Two Legs, although I enjoy both songs. The other two songs are very good as well.

@Andy & Alex Don't be surprised guys, but that is the drummer Roger Taylor singing "Tenement Funster", not Freddie ! Hardly anybody realized that all four band members could have been lead singers of any band they liked. That is why their vocals harmonize so well on many of Queen's songs - they could sing like a choir ! Brilliant musicians, excellent vocalists, fantastic songs and compositions - who can ask for more ?❤

Roger has an INCREDIBLE range and he could do that raspy voice and then hit these break the sound barrier high notes that were incredibly much higher than Freddie could song. Fred said Roger had the dog whistle.😂😂 don't know if you've heard much of Roger Taylor solo work but he also was lead singer with his band The Cross and played guitar. " Let's Get Crazy" is fun!!!! It's a good song and it is not up with Queen's Greatest caliber music but it's a good song to party to. Rog, the party boy.

sorry, had to jump in 1 more time. Andy when you said (paraphrasing) 20+ Queen songs and starting to recognize the different voices, please do a Brian May singing reaction.( imo he's got a bit of Mcartney in him) you could start with, Some Day One Day, Good Company, Long Away, All Dead All Dead(mesmerizing with those harmonies), Sleeping on the Sidewalk, they're off Queen albums, but you can see the difference between Freddie's and Brian's songs. Brian's are all exquisite.

Flick of the Wrist!!! Yeaaa!!!

oh cool, I didn't think you'd put this up so soon! Yeah, I think Flick of the Wrist is my favorite of the three. When I first heard this on the album, I guess I kinda got lost in Tenement Funster and didn't really know when Flick of the Wrist started, but when I heard Freddie's voice I was like, wait, it's a new song lol! You probably recorded the vid already, but I really prefer the original Highlander version of A Kind of Magic. They wrote a few songs for the movie Highlander, Princes of the Universe, Who Wants to Live Forever (also fantastic songs, please add those to the queue soon!!) as well as A Kind of Magic. The original version Roger wrote is in the movie, but for the album, Freddie wanted more of a pop feel, so they changed the style a bit. I suppose you should hear the album version first, but eventually check it out.

the first 3 Queen studio albums were Queen at their absolute raw best !

You like Roger -- please review "Drowse"!!

Roger is an awesome singer. My two favorite song with him on lead vocals are "Drowse" from A Day AT The Races, and "Fight From The Inside" from News Of The World. If you haven't done those songs yet, you should check them out!

If "A Night at the Opera" is Queen's "Pulp Fiction", then "Sheer Heart Attack" is their "Reservoir Dogs"; the blueprint for what's about to come.

Brian May... Brian May... oh boy! The whole band, Yay!

"Tenement Funster," that's a Roger Taylor compostion, with him on lead vocals too. Great song choice, guys. The other songs on here are great, as well.

Great choice my dudes, enjoy

good review guys keep it goin'

Always loved early Queen more than their later stuff.

As another comment mentioned there rainbow club shows from 1974. Any song is great. Try father to son live

Roger and Deacy the tightest combo in rock. The foundation of a skyscraper called Queen!

Love it☺
