  1. What makes Queen a typically English group?

    There's something about Queen in the very early years that always makes me think of Victorian and/or Dickensian London - could be the clothes and imagery, the lyrics of some songs, it's difficult to explain - just a g...

  2. 1973 Danny Sugarman review of Queen debut album

    I'm guessing he enjoyed it, then :D

  3. What Roger solo songs would you like to have heard The Cross play?

    Beautiful Dreams

  4. What is the most surprising Queen song you have heard on the radio?

    Hearing snippets of Backchat and Keep Yourself Alive between interview segments in 1986, I was transfixed - I was in my teens and just about to explore the band beyond Greatest Hits :D

  5. The Immortals (John Deacon) - No Turning Back Vinyl Rip (Lossless)

    The backing track is really like Sussudio by Phil Collins, if this had made money they would have ended up in court :D

  6. Queen's influences

    Roger has said in at least one interview "We wanted to be a sort of Yes meets Led Zeppelin", talking about the early days. (B.P. Fallon, RTE 2FM, 1986)

  7. Good Omens

    I've been watching too, never read the book but enjoying the show.

  8. Future concert release

    ^ Don't give them any ideas!!! :D

  9. ANNOUNCE: Time Waits For No One - Freddie Mercury

    I never warmed to the original, but I really like this 'version'.

  10. Announce: Hyde Park 1976 (Audio Tape Upgrade)+Video synch

    To be honest, i used to struggle to get through this with all the warbling - it's a revelation to hear the performance that was masked by the sound issues.

  11. Rain Must Fall

    It's my least favourite from The Miracle. Does anyone else think the similarity to "Young Hearts" is too close for comfort?

  12. Announce: Hyde Park 1976 (Audio Tape Upgrade)+Video synch

    Certainly makes the whole thing more listenable, good work.

  13. Trying to correct hyde park 76 audio

    A Quad/surround mix with the audience in the rear would be interesting, would the recordings be difficult to sync ?

  14. ANNOUNCE: "Races At The Court" Blu-ray

    Just want to thank everyone involved at all stages of this, treating precious archive material with the respect it deserves :)

  15. ANNOUNCE: "Races At The Court" Blu-ray

    It will get there eventually, I have 10GB now, resuming in a few hours.

  16. ANNOUNCE: "Races At The Court" Blu-ray

    If you use the MEGAsync app it allows you to download up to 5GB at a time, resuming after several hours, for free. Testing my patience :)

  17. I Want it All (Second Mix) - Anybody heard it?

    My first ANATO was the EMI cassette (with slightly different running order), which of course I thought sounded amazing in dual-mono. When I got the LP it sounded odd to me, especially some of the radical stereo and ma...

  18. 1980-12-08 Queen - Wembley Arena 1980 1st Night (Wardour 308)

    Great to hear some of the setlist gems in such quality, here and on the Hammersmith 79 release. Even Flash :)

  19. Queen Days Of Our Lives Japanese release

    Thanks for the festive gift :)

  20. Doesn't I Want To Break Free sound similar to this...

    Crackling :D Another One Bites The Crust, Ham-mer To Fall, etc.
