    Ultimate professionals. Go back & watch carefully. When Freddie turns on the piano bench toward Brian, only 1 note comes out of his guitar. It's obvious that there was supposed to be 1 of his great solos there. Instead you see him unplug his guitar just before the camera cuts to Freddie. Roger immediately starts drumming & Freddie immediately starts toward the front of the stage while he watches Brian go backstage (to the guitar technician). He starts working the audience &, in very short order, he turns to see Brian returning & they just slip right back into it. Freddie has a right to pound the piano. They didn't just hold it together, they killed it!

Also watch Queen live in RIO. Their live shows were a revelation. No one has the energy and charisma that Freddie had. On Montreal 1881 check Save Me and DragonAttack!

    I LOVE sooo much Queen, this gig was incredibile with Freddie simply out of this world (as usual, is the goat). The crowd was a little cold and Freddie was annoying. This concert was recorded in high quality (were 2 dates mixed in one concert and the organization asked to Freddie to dress the band with the same outfits, but Freddie did as he wanted ahahah). Dragon attack version in Montreal was fantastic. I miss Freddie so much and on 24th of november is 30 years he died. Never ever will born a voice and with stage presence like Freddie. And the whole band, Brian, Roger and John, was simply stratospheric. This version of somebody to love is dazzling, the other version i love is that in 1982 at Milton Keynes bowl. FENOMENO. As italian, i'd like so much if Måneskin play a cover of them. Maybe Another one bites the dust, why not. Ciao Freddie

    FANTASTIC REACTION.... What Queen fans know is that their Live Aid set, which is often called the greatest live performance in Rock Music, was Freddie with a throat infection (his Dr. didn't even want him to perform; Freddie said afterwards that his throat felt like shards of glass)! There are SO MANY Queen performances arguably as good as Live Aid... because Queen is the ONLY band who's renowned for being better live than in the studio! This 1981 Montreal concert is one of Queen's best known due to its great HD video; there's ALSO the "Fire At The Bowl" concert at Milton Keynes in 1982 (which is MY FAVORITE... there's a "hard-core" group of Queen fans who love it BEST, for Freddie's insane vocals/energy). For EARLY QUEEN, there are FANTASTIC-quality concert videos at The Rainbow in 1974 and at Odeon Hammersmith in 1975. Later on (post-Live Aid) the 1986 Magic Tour has fantastic concert videos from Wembley Stadium in 1986 (TWO shows, Friday AND Saturday) as well as the "Hungarian Rhapsody" concert in Budapest. DID YOU KNOW THAT FREDDIE ALSO DID OPERA? In 1987, he collaborated with Spanish opera singer Montserrat Caballe to make the Barcelona album... FANTASTIC! In the late 80s, Queen stopped performing live due to Freddie's declining health, but produced some FANTASTIC music videos and my two FAVORITE albums... Innuendo and Made In Heaven. The title track "Innuendo" is called the 1990s sibling to "Bohemian Rhapsody". SUGGESTIONS: "LIAR" LIVE AT THE RAINBOW, 1974 "WHITE QUEEN" LIVE AT ODEON HAMMERSMITH, 1975 "YOU TAKE MY BREATH AWAY" LIVE AT HYDE PARK, 1976 "DRAGON ATTACK" (REPRISE VERSION) LIVE AT MONTREAL, 1981 "FAT BOTTOMED GIRLS" LIVE AT MILTON KEYNES, 1982 "LIVING ON MY OWN" (ORIGINAL 1985 version, NOT 1992 remix!) official music video 20-MINUTE LIVE AID SET (MUST BE ALL IN-ONE-GO TO APPRECIATE IT) "IT'S A HARD LIFE" LIVE AT ROCK IN RIO, 1985 "UNDER PRESSURE" LIVE AT WEMBLEY, 1986 "LOVE OF MY LIFE" LIVE AT either ROCK IN RIO or AT WEMBLEY "BARCELONA" LIVE AT LA NIT "INNUENDO" official music video

White Queen (KZread: live at the Rainbow 1974 is best) was one of my favorites: At the time they were still doing a lot of songs from the early seventies. Somebody To Love was a sort of encore/ last song I believe, one of the many highlights. So thank you very much for this one.

    This is my favorite performance of this song, the whole band totally smashes it. Brian is perfection, John is killing that bassline and Roger doesn't miss a beat while he is singing throughout the entire song. My favorite live Queen performance, actually probably my favorite live performance ever is Queen: White Queen live at Odeon, Hammersmith 1975. You will see Freddie in incredible voice and a 1 minute 45 second instrumental portion with Freddie and Brian absolutely killing it. It is truly mind blowing. Another amazing Freddie live moment is live at Hyde Park, You Take My Breath Away. It is just Freddie and the piano but his vocal control on that performance is outstanding. Of course all live Queen is great but those two will definitely get your juices flowing. Thank you for an excellent reaction to this fantastic performance.

    Amazing reaction! Here are my suggestions/personal preferences regarding the best lives - arranged by decade, as you mentioned being interested in early ones too!: 70s Concerts: 1) Stone Cold Crazy Live at the Rainbow, 1974 (So short but amazing! Metallica later covered this song and won a Grammy; they performed it at his tribute concert as well. One of the first speed metal songs before the term existed. There's an even faster version live from Houston in 1977, but the recording quality isn't as good.) 2) In the Lap of the Gods Revisited live at the Hammersmith Odeon, 1975 as well as In the Lap of the Gods (a completely different song; they bookended an album) live at the Rainbow in 1974. ROGER'S SUPER HIGH VOICE is incredibly showcased in the second one! Note that the first track isn't listed as Revisited on KZread, but it should be. 3) White Queen, live at the Hammersmith Odeon, 1975 (STUNNING, and really showcases the band's musicianship with a huge instrumental section in the middle) 4) You Take My Breath Away, live at Hyde Park, 1976 (Freddie performed it here before the album and song had even been released, so it was completely new for the audience - he tells them to "listen to this one" and essentially to be quiet, haha! It's just him and the piano.) 80s Concerts: 1) Well, anything from this Montreal 1981 concert (plus the recording quality was stellar): Save Me, Bohemian Rhapsody, Love of My Life, Play the Game, Dragon Attack, and the duo of We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions are the standouts (but literally ANY song from this show is perfection) 2) Love of My Life, live at Wembley, 1986 (note that this and many of the below suggestions are from their most infamous performance from their most infamous tour - the Magic 1986 tour - but also their last tour, as Freddie was diagnosed a few months after returning home. He was getting more tired during his shows and more frequent colds, which is what alerted him that something might be wrong, but you'd never know from his performances except for some vocal strain on occasion. Just an fyi that his voice wasn't always at his best in 1986, but he also somehow managed to still give some of his best vocal performances.) 3) Who Wants to Live Forever (we have only three versions of this on video, since Freddie was never able to tour again and perform it: two from both nights at Wembley and one from Budapest. My favorite is Budapest, but you can't go wrong!) 4) Under Pressure, live at Wembley 1986 (David Bowie might not be there to complete the collaboration, but I like this better than the original! Plus, it has Freddie's iconic 2.5-minute call and response at the beginning). 5) It's a Kind of Magic, live at Wembley, 1986 (it really was an amazing concert) 6) Fat Bottomed Girls, live at the Bowl, 1982 (Freddie outdoes himself in this one, haha! Amazing energy and some... pole dancing) 7) Somebody to Love, live in Milton Keynes, 1982 (some people even prefer this version to the Montreal version - Freddie's a bit more relaxed and the audience is more wild; this particular audience in Montreal annoyed the whole band because the filming crew kept directing them to be quiet for the recording quality, which obviously doesn't suit Queen's performance style!) 8) Dragon Attack, live in Milton Keynes, 1982 (this whole show had stellar energy) I'm sure I'm missing ones others than help add, but I think it's long enough, hahaha. Freddie also has later "live" performances from an opera collaboration he did with Spanish opera singer Montserrat Caballe (they recorded a whole album) - however, he was really too (secretly) ill to perform live at that point. The songs and performances are GORGEOUS, though. Check out "Barcelona" and "The Golden Boy".

    Evidently your October surprise...for yourselves! Freddie was in peak form at Montreal - gift wrapped with a giant bow. Some fans vie for the Milton Keynes version - delivered with such fire and intensity he is just possessed. So lovely to see that appreciation and pure joy. Yes, jump back in time to STONE COLD CRAZY gosh they snap. There are lots of stadium Queen crowd pleasers - WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER Live in Budapest and lots of Wembly giants. But oh those glorious Queen ballad gems, like SAVE ME (Montreal again). When you hear the arc of their foray into just about every genre possible, you can't help but marvel at their appetite to have and do it all!

    Summer 1985 I was a young man, no job, and had just lost my apartment, so I set myself up in a cave in the forest a mile out of town. True story! I went into town to see some friends and we all watched Live Aid from beginning to end, and the unanimous consensus was that Queen won the day by a wide margin, which is very impressive considering the lineup for that event. Great performance. I returned to my cave. I had a great setup, looking back it was a great summer 🍻

If you whant to see them from the start that I now of it must bee The Rainbow -74, Odeon Hammersmith 12.24.75, Hyde park -76omg it so much. Some songs Bohemian Rhapsody from Montreal -81, Draggon Attac from same consert. Who whants to live forever Wembley 07.11.86, Live Aid 07.13.85 you can only take a song, its never go wrong with Queen. Dont Stop Me Now official video, A winters tale, I’m going sligthly mad from february -91, This are the days of our lives may 30.91 the last video 😢 The Prophet song, the lyric one. Brian Mays Masterpiece, Mother love, the absolut last song he was singing. He was so sick, Brian had to sing the last of it, The show must go on, Cool cat, Anotherone bites the dust, Under pressure, I whant to break free, Love of my life, from Rio.

    You two are priceless, so I just had to join. So pleased to hear you acknowledge the brilliance of the band. Freddie alone couldn't have created the magic of Queen. It took all four extraordinary men to accomplish this. Do you notice that Queen does not follow the traditional rock band platform? What they do is theatre. Each and every piece of theirs is honed to theatrical quality. The following are good examples of their art. In Liar, you can see each member of the band take center stage to show exactly what it is they contribute to the Queen sound. Liar - kzread.info/dash/bejne/gGplmcSih8jem5M.html White Queen is ( reminiscent of Olde England, at least to me ) theatre from start to finish. In this one, Freddie and Brian are featured, and they'll take you on a trip you'll remember a long time. On first listen they'll take up all the oxygen in the room, but upon subsequent listens you'll hear the subtle background of bass and drum that give the structure and mood to the piece. ( an aside: Rolling Stone Magazine once called Roger and John the " sonic volcano " of Queen. ) White Queen - kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z3xnyblupLzVfqw.html
