You can hear some maracas being shaken as Brian is hitting chords on the acoustic. Could this be an argument rehearsing Dreamers Ball? Freddie's emphasis on the word "perfect" kills me!
Yeah, that's great
Live life to the full!
Oh i've heard a lot worse.

They've had a few fisticuffs in their time.Just not on tape as far as i'm concerned
I never forget a face, but in your case i'll be glad to make an exception-Groucho Marx
It's Queen's Troggs Tapes!
Very entertaining!

Anyone in any band would relate to that.
One of their many arguments. The way Fred says "Perfect" cracks me up.
How do English people ever stay mad at each other, or get divorced, or hold grudges, or get in fist fights, or anything?  They all sound fabulously civilized and full of tea and such even when they're arguing.  "Puhhhhhrfect!" Ah haha!

Dreamer's Ball??? You sure it isn't Who Needs You??? ;)
We love you Mandy!
Who Needs You wasn't played live, Dreamer's Ball and '39 were.

Not everyone speaks like Fred and Brian. If you don't know who he is, look up ex-footballer (in the loosest sense of the term), now Hollywood actor, "Vinnie Jones" on Youtube :)

Good point My Fairy King but Brian says that he plays this just like he does on the record. So in my thinking this could be rehearsals for the JAZZ tour.
It definitely isn't a Buddy Rich argument-a-thon, but that was pretty good.
Maybe this incident is WHY "Who Needs You?" wasn't ever played live. :-)

Glad someone mentioned that.

As insightful as this clip is, it's nothing compared to the Buddy Rich tapes.
