Son and daughter or Liar?

I also like Modern Times Rock'n roll but it sounds like it has been recorded with the four of them squahed in outdoor toilet.Actually it proberly had?!

My Fairy King & Great King Rat

The Kings are doing it on Queen I

My Fairy King, definitely. One of the best songs they ever did. Certainly in my top 5, not that i have a chart.

Well, out of the two I'll go with Son And Daughter. The early live versions are particularly powerful, with the Brighton Rock solo and then the triumphant and smooth return into the crushing main riff.

Out of all of Queen I, I think My Fairy King is the one I like the most. Doing All Right has some beautiful vocal harmonies though (the 'aaah' at the end of the metal section).

The Night Comes Down is an exceptional song and one of my Queen favourites . My Fairy King is ground breaking and very Queen -organic. Liar shades it from the original question.

Hi there loyal Queenies,

SInce I first heard it in Sydney, April 1976, Liar remains a favourite. Live there is so much room for wonderful improv between Brian, Roger & John. While this is where Roger just works his arse off behind the drum kit. Even Deacy joined in the vocals now and then.

That being said, Son & Daughter had some serious balls live; again the live improv was just wonderful.

Cheers,

Hands down, the best song on the album is My Fairy King. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it.

What are you, 12?

I like all the songs on the album,but if ever a Queen album needed remixing its this one.The drums sound awful!!!!!! Sure all the albums have been remastered (loudened) but i do wish someone could get hold of the multi-tracks and remix them. I find the work of PiotreQ amazing!!!!!!!

I like the album, but every song on it pales in comparison to the demo's(minus TNCD for obvious reasons).

One, the production is far better, the way the entire album should have sounded and two, the actual musicianship is far better.

Judging by the atavar, you're tho one who watches cartoons. Behave, you little kid.

I don't think there's much that can be done about the sound of the Trident albums. The studio and Roy Thomas Baker apparently had this view of recording a certain way, deadening the sound and killing any living feeling of the instruments. At least, that's what I've read and heard in interviews. The drums, for instance, are flat and almost muffled because they did things like put tape all over them. The problem is the master tracks will always have this sound. You might be able to salvage a bit better sound with a full re-mixing, but you're never going to get it much better because there's not much there to work with.
If I'm wrong, and better audio can be pulled from the tapes, great, but I don't think that's the case.

Great, another troll resorting to an argumentum ad hominem..

Using the word "gay" to describe a song that has nothing to do with homosexuality is somehow exonerated by me using an animated Frank Zappa avatar. Thanks for showing me the light, oh wise one.
