Tomorrow comes, tomorrow brings... tomorrow brings love in the shape of things..
Anytime....anywhere... if you've gotta make love, do it everywhere..
that's what love is ;)
Great song, good suggested nods to Phil Spector.. (for some reason i never thought of that, despite the notion that it DOES sound WOS-like...)
maybe a remix should do a full tribute to him and conclude with a gun shot
((rim shot))
Alright, enough of the joke in bad taste...
...i've always thought that Queen II was their most bombastic album...and therefore GREAT
They kept touching on that sort of thing until it kinda tapered off around the JAZZ era...only to come back in glimpses (Princes of the Universe, Was it All Worth It, Chinese Torture, Made In Heaven)
like the frenetic build of Fairy Feller...
The dark broods of "March of the Black Queen"..
Hell, even "Loser In the End" fits [though the lyric content doesn't], but yeah as an oddity... but then again so does "Seven Seas of Rhye"
I just accept the bunch..(how "high and mighty" does that sound to scrutinize this incredibly talented band) lol...
accept em as is
pure feeerreeeeeeEEEakin... genius.

Basically it's about adding as many accoustic guitars, choirs and in Phil Spector's case orchestra's to a recording until its saturated. Then the next step is to apply a huge amount of echo to the top until it all turns to mud. What you end up with is just a huge amount of noise with no definition and usually no trebble.
A great example of this is George Harrison's All Things Must Pass. The songs are great, the production to me is woefull.
=================================
Phil Spector was blown out of the water by Brian Wilson's re-creation of the wall of sound. He got so jealous. He'd sneak into the studio while Brian was producing, and snicker "I can hear you!"... the dude was crazy. His wall of sound was simple. Brian totally over-did it. In fact, Phil Spector was so jealous of Brian's productions and song writing, he refused to let The Ronettes use Brian as a song writer. Thus is why 'Don't Worry Baby' wasn't released by The Ronettes. Brian was so delighted when Ronnie did the song later on though. He loved it! I think Freddie, personally, knew more about The Beach Boys than about Phil Spector. I don't recall him mentioning Spector at all.

It was producer Robin Cable who created the Wall Of Sound for Queen. While recording the fisrt album, Cable asked Freddie to record vocals and piano for his (Cable's) version of "I Can Hear Music" and "Goin' Back." Freddie brought in Brian and Roger and thsong were recorded. They became the Larry Lurex single we know and love! When recording Queen II, they obviously wanted to recreate that Wall Of Sound and had Cable produce the track. They credit him accordingly on the album.
