  1. ALBUM BOX SET

    Seriously? Seperate album reissues and then a multi-album box? RIP-OFF!!!! Are they forgetting about the 1995 15-CD set Ultimate Queen? The 2011 box is basically UQ with 75 mediocre leftovers tacked on. (we all know t...

  2. Brian's guitar playing on solo ventures

    I went through my top 50 Brian guitar solos of all time (I know, I'm a freak who likes to make lists) and picked out the stuff from Back to the Light and Another World. Here are the best solos from Brian's true solo c...

  3. Queen's heaviest song...

    gsparaco - I take it you looked in the Jazz liner notes?! Yes, the thunderbolt is credited to the greater force above, but in reality, Brian went out in a thunderstorm with a portable audio recorder and hey presto! Ju...

  4. Probable bonuses on the remasters

    Wiley - sure! Look in Queenpedia sessionography: 1978 July-October Jazz sessions. According to the additional info on Let Me Entertain You this version premiered at a 2007 fan convention. The early version of Coming S...

  5. Queen's heaviest song...

    I couldn't put any in an order, especially an order of heaviness, but I'll try to put down some of the heaviest. Tie Your Mother Down - That opening riff is one of THE rock riffs! White Man - Just a pure blast of almo...

  6. Probable bonuses on the remasters

    This might be kicking around, but I wondered what people would want as bonuses on the remaining eight albums. I say eight because Flash Gordon wouldn't really need extras as a soundtrack and MiH was pieced together fr...

  7. What do you do with someone that doesn`t appeciate side B of Queen II?

    Seriously? Who would choose American Idol over Queen II? Lip-synched trash or mind-blowingly over-the-top harmonies? Hmmm... tough decision... Harmonies easy! But when it comes to Queen II, the cover is iconic in itse...

  8. QUEEN-related music in GUITAR HERO, ROCK BAND, SINGSTAR, etc.

    Why in all things musical would you include Vanilla Ice's atrocity on that list? Sure it uses the Under Pressure bassline, but Ice took it without permission (lousy good-for-nothing) then claimed he added an extra not...

  9. Best songs in Freddie Mercury's solo career

    "Ogre-" - When it comes to Love Kills, I love the originial Richard Wolf version (note, I'm not refering to the remix which floods with instruments as soon as Freddie sings the title phrase), but when it comes to the...

  10. Best songs in Freddie Mercury's solo career

    I've been dropping hints of my top 50 Queen songs around on various posts, and for an extra teaser for that I think I'll come up with a list of Freddie's best songs from his solo bulk. DISCLAIMER - if you're going to...

  11. Best songs in Freddie Mercury's solo career

    I've been dropping hints of my top 50 Queen songs around on various posts, and for an extra teaser for that I think I'll come up with a list of Freddie's best songs from his solo bulk. DISCLAIMER - if you're going to...

  12. 5 best Queen Albums and 5 Worst

    Funky Horsie - hey, I actually like Play the Game! It's just most of the album is depressing in quality. If you read my post in the 'worst albums ever' thread you'll see Play the Game, Bites the Dust and Crazy Little...

  13. Most Passionate Vocal Moment by Freddie

    I think there's a lot of passion in Teo Torriatte (ADATR studio) 0:20 to 0:49. It's A Beautiful Day 0:44 to 1:49 impresses me no end, with 1:14-1:16 and 1:38 as standout on there because of the vocal rising over the i...

  14. Is A Night At The Opera In the shadow of other great bands albums Of the 7

    I heartily disagree with the whole 'Queen I is a Zeppelin one clone album' idea that's floating around. And when it comes to Jimmy Page's playing, I can just stand it. Whole Lotta Love is a good riff but if he really...

  15. Am I Alone? (late-era Queen)

    I think The Miracle album is one of Queen's finest works. Complete fluidity throughout. And if the singles off Innuendo are anything to run by, that album proves to be a good one as well (shock, horror, I don't have i...

  16. if you met brian may, what would you ask him to sign?

    I would get him to sign the inner sleeves of my home-made CDs of Opera, Races and Miracle. That is, if I muster enough courage to speak to him!!!! I would faint if I was in his presence. At the British Music Experienc...

  17. Steve Vai on Brian May

    chris the unhappy sheep - I'm not a fan of ultra-fast players either. What ticks me off is when people put Brian down in favour of Eddie Van Halen. I enjoy the Star Fleet EP - a good meeting of them both, but I must s...

  18. Is A Night At The Opera In the shadow of other great bands albums Of the 7

    In my humble opinion, A Night At The Opera TRIUMPHS over Led Zeppelin IV. Four reasons why it triumphs: 1. Brian could kick Jimmy Page's butt to Neptune just by using one hand and being blindfolded. 2. The album cover...

  19. 5 best Queen Albums and 5 Worst

    Best 1. ANATO (Classic album. Enough said.) 2. ADATR (Perfect counterpart to ANATO. Take My Breath Away and Drowse get me down sometimes, but that aside...) 3. Made in Heaven (Superb epilogue. Brian, Roger and John sh...

  20. Hypothetical multiple-album

    Here's a hypothetical which might get people's brains going. Let's say that Queen had recorded the first five albums in their originial vinyl pressings - 1991 Hollywood and 2011 Universal bonuses omitted. Say some of...
