Those spectacular white satin costumes were by the very famous, one & only Zandra Rhodes...who Freddie found. Zandra was starting out in the 1970's and went on to design for Princess Di. Freddie was a genius in many ways...song writing, performing, designing, fashion, to name a few... I love their eccentric style on stage & off.

One of my favourite songs along with 'In the lap of the Gods' Also like to add you should do the 79 live killers version of Brighton Rock. Brian's guitar solo is so insane.

Great reaction! I am glad you guys want to check out more 70's Queen! If there is someone who can wear a cape, it is Freddie. lol You guys can try Father To Son live at the Rainbow 1974, Liar live at the Rainbow 1974, Stone Cold Crazy (officially known as the first thrash metal song) live at the Rainbow 1974. Also Ogre Battle from the Hammersmith Odeon 1975. This show at the Hammersmith Odeon was broadcasted live on BB2 on Christmas Eve, presented by the Old Grey Whistle Test. There was a contest in the Melody Maker magazine and people voted for the best live band, the prize was a live performance on BBC2, it was a great opportunity for an up coming band. Thus this concert is slightly shorter then other Queen concerts. At this stage Bohemian Rhapsody was also no.1 on the charts. So this this was a great time for the band. The White Queen comes from the album Queen II, it is somewhat of a concept album with a white and black side. The album is full of fantasy and medieval themes. It is great that you guys have noticed Freddie's piano playing as well, he gets lots of praise for singing and performing, but he was a great musician, piano player and composer as well. Brian May build his own guitar, the delay he is using here is also tape delays that he built himself. It is cool to hear stories from earlier decades.

Dr Brian May wrote the song, it's about something that happened in his early life, and The Red Special which he built with his dad back in around 1963 from things around their home, he knew how he wanted it too sound, however John Deacon made an Amp which they both used to get the sounds they wanted with just four on stage, and they all played different instruments, they didn't just stick too the ones you associate with them and also Dr Brian May uses an old Sixpence instead of the normal fingers or pic, he worked out a long time ago how he wanted everything sounding

This song is from Queen 2 which is absolutely up at the top of favourite Queen albums for any hard core fan of the group. Side white is Brian May's songs with one of Rogers. Side black is Freddie's songs. It's exceptional all the way through. Also had their first hit single Seven Seas of Rhye. The concert from Hammersmith is a Christmas concert and you should definitely watch the whole thing. Also Live at the Rainbow 1974 is fantastic. Stone Cold Crazy, In the Lap of the Gods (for Rogers dog whistle backing vocals) Liar, that whole concert is well worth a listen as well. I believe they are both on KZread. Great reactions, guys!

It's interesting that you pick up on the timing of Freddie's piano-playing, and in fact describe him as a "metronome" because that is the exact term that Brian May used to describe Freddie's skills, despite the fact that Freddy himself was dismissive of his piano playing skills. While it's true that Freddie did not possess tthe technical skills of a virtuoso on the piano, his overall brilliance as a musician elevated him tu Maestro level especially for this genre. As great as Freddie was running around on stage, there is a special magical charm that Freddy conjured when he was just sitting down and playing the piano on song such as e We the champions, Play the Game, it's a hard life, among others

One of the main reasons I didn't pay much attention to Queen is that when I was starting to take notice of rock music around age 11-12, the radio airwaves seemed to be overrun by "We Are The Champions" and "We Will Rock You"; decent songs, but I wasn't knocked out by those, so I ignored the band basically.

It starts with great drums by Roger Taylor, then Brian joins with his guitar and, of course, John on the bass. There are almost 1 1/2 minutes of instruments before Freddie begins singing: I have sinned, dear Father. Father, I have sinned. Won't you help me, Father? Won't you let me in? (Liar!) Oh, nobody believes me. (Liar!) Why don't you leave me alone?. This is a song where everyone in the band gets the spotlight one time or another.

My do'ft me cap!

Listen the whole Queen II

There are many hidden gems in the 70's like Prophet Song (perhaps the first (proto) power metal song), Death on Two Legs, and many more that have already been recommended to you. Great reaction. About the studio version of White Queen, it's very different with one of the best backing vocals in the Queen catalogue, but in live the band chooses the demo song, the instrumental version is better and Roger is an amazing singer but maybe sings that chorus live it's impossible.

Hi guys!! Loved the reaction, not so much the bike or wrestling references... King Kong and Godzilla were okay.... Freddie would have liked that. The next one should be another real classic queen, might I suggest "In the Lap of the Gods" or "March of the Black Queen", or "Great King Rat" paired with "My Fairy King"... all are good...thanks again for the reaction.

Make your mind up!

One of the greatest things I have ever seen live on a stage. The talent and soul ooze out of every pore of every band member in early Queen. Later on... meh, not so much.

Love Queen and perticulary Freddie Mercury ( visual : spesial in the 70 ies whit long black hear, black fingernails on the left hand, jewelry and silk and satin - loooovley !!!) Please react to: In the Lap of the Gods - both versions !!! .. were Freddie Mercury sits at the piano in a black leotard almost disapeer in smog ( reminds me of our lovley dangerus norwegians jotner. Think it was Hammersmith Odeon 1975. Please !!!! Best from Norway

They were the days!! Take care and thanks for being here, we never take it for granted

Gents, six months ago George asked for a recommendation for a good live version of Kashmir. I didn’t see that you have reacted to it yet. I would recommend, in the highest possible way, the live version from 2007 Celebration Day at the O2. It is my favorite version of my favorite song by my favorite band. I don’t think you’ve reacted to any song from that concert? It is magnificent Robert sounded better doing Kashmir in this than he did in 1979 Knebworth. You will both be blown away. Guarantee it.

@@TheThamesmen THANK YOU! you are a peach! 😁🤗

Queen of 1973-1978 was.............................. something else! By the way, speaking about Godzilla, there is a band that is called Gojira after the Japanese equivalent. They are from France, yes...France. They are pretty much the biggest banger in metal at this moment. Anyways, thank you very much for this reaction and bless Fred. Ps: time for another background prop I guess ;-)
