Witout II There'd Be No BoRap

It doesn't seem too far off the mark to say that MFK led to MOTBQ which led in turn to BoRhap............(nothing really similar to any of those on SHA, oddly....)

In The Lap of the Gods sort of is. Not as many distinct sections though.

Perhaps structurally, but musically I don't really see any resemblance to Fairy King, Black Queen or Bo Rhap.

Those three songs do seem to inform each other, though. They even have similar endings (or fake ending, in the case of Black Queen). It's a bit more of a stretch, but if you wanted to you could also throw "The Millionaire Waltz" into the mix (in that case, there's the "Forever" bit).

Without Keep Yourself Alive there would be no The Show Must Go On...

Seems to me you could say similar things about pretty much any band that was around for a while................without Caress of Steel there'd be no 2112 and so forth...............


(Just wanted to throw a random Rush reference in there..........)

Without Jim Hutton, there'd be no fried chicken.

all musicians improve as they begun to create music,and in bands the same things happens,of course there are more people involved.So,same thing happened to Queen,their music improved as they worked together more,so in a way,yes,Queen II led to A Night at the Opera
