Seven Seas of Rhye (1972 version) does exist!

On the website Queenpedia.com. they have listed the 1972 version of "Seven Seas of Rhye" as "unconfirmed". Does it mean that they don't know it exist. I think it exists, but is still in the archive

Just listen closely at the end of "Silver Salmon" (1972). This sounds like the start of "Seven Seas of Rhye"- But the strange thing is that it sounds more like the "Queen II" versjon (faster piano intro) than the instrumental from the first album..

I think this is the correct speed. The bootleg versions does run a bit fast. But the uploader claims the track was recorded in 1977. This is wrong beacuse this track is from the same recordings session as "Feelings", (Proof: listen to the end of "Feelings". it ihas exactly the same guitar chord as the beginning of Silver Salmon, and "Feelings" were recorded in '72) followed by this one, and then probably "Seven Seas of Rhye".

Silver Salmon was recorded in 77....

WTF? The end of "Silver Salmon" (whatever the year it is from) sounds like the start of Liar, not SSOR.

the very ending of that video has piano chords that do sound a little bit like those opening Seven Seas Of Rhye. It doesn't really prove anything though...

Please not the Silver F'n Salmon debate again.

was "silver f'n salmon" their working title for the song? :-)

No, I think that's actually the unissued re-take from 1987, made especially for that year's convention but never used. It's just under 8 minutes long and features a bridge with four part harmonies: "Look out silver salmon, Paul Rodgers is my favourite singer".
