Brian's best solo with Queen?

Killer Queen

One Vision,Love Of Life,March Of The Black Queen,Stone Cold Crazy,Dragon Attack.

It's A Hard Life.

Hi, this is hard, but here goes: White Queen, Flick of the Wrist, Dead on Time, Put Out the Fire, The invisible man, The show must go on/ Now after I click post reply, I will probably think of a few more!

WWTLF is an awesome solo....
I also have a soft spot for All Gods People, and live, AKOM always sounds tremendous

I don't know if it's the best, but I love the All Dead, All Dead guitar & organ solo.

Almost like an orchestra =)

I realize it might sound incongruous to some to include WWTLF as it's short and includes very few picked notes, but the incredible thing about Brian May is his tonality and his writing.


It adds an incredible dimension to the song and isn't just tacked on with an orchestra (*like metallicrap did)


His playing is very diverse spatially and very very emotive.

Beautiful stuff. Tough category

Brian was so creative in his solos, like the aforementioned Dixieland jazz band solo in "Good Company", that's pure genius. Or the "Bicycle Race" solo, designed to evoke two cyclists racing against each other, really clever! Other personal favourites : In the Lap of the Gods, Bo Rhap, WWRY, Sail Away Sweet Sister, Dragon Attack, Put Out the Fire, AKOM, The Invisible Man, TATDOOL.

You Don't Fool Me, of course.

I forgot to mention Back Chat solo from Milton Keynes. That solo is epicly brilliant.

It's Late. Such an emotional story, the fact he's tapping in 1977 is inconsequential, just think the solo mirrors the darkness and anxiety of the lyrics and singing. Good solos aren't getting the song from Point A to Point C, they're an integral part of the song.

- Show Must Go on (breathtaking)
- Hammer to Fall (Wembley 1986)
- These are the Days

Yes! Gotta love Freddie's little ad-libs during the solo too.
