hey dudes, i have a f'n cool question for all you wannabe kueen fans out there. i'm talking to you north dakota fanning and all you chicago bull fans. do you think freddie ever ripped it up on the axe? i mean he wrote ogre battle and the bo rhap riff on the git. i bet some days he would come into the studio and plug in a guitar, crank up the ampes and just simply shread. i wonder if they have any of those recordings in the archives.
how about all the queen members switching on instruments? freddie on guitar, brian on drums, roger on bass, and john on piano? that would be great to hear. do you think there might be a chance that a recording was made of them doing just that? maybe greg knows.
peace. and go portland trail blazers!

Freddie was a good guitar player. Not a Vai or a Hendrix, but he needn't to. His ability to compose masterpieces came more from his brain (or soul) rather than his hands.
John was fairly good piano player as well, and he often composed at the piano. Roger was quite amateurish as bassist but he recorded during some Queen songs and his first two solo albums.
Brian's rhythm sense wasn't as good as the others', yet he was an extraordinary arranger for drum-parts.

I didn't think too much of his playing, because I can play CLTCL, too!
What's with the Chicago Bulls? Or the Portland Trailblazers?
Are we playing "Who's not making the playoffs next year?" GO SUNS.

hehe, brian is sexy on the piano
I've heard that you can play Crazy Little thing called Love with 3 chords. Can anybody tell me wich are they?
He was kinda shit on guitar. Ofcourse he knew that already. =)
I think Freddie for some reason wanted us to believe that he was crappier than he really was.

Anyway, he really wasn't a good guitar player.. What he played, he played well, but he only played a few chords...
And composing good things on the guitar, doesn't make him a good guitar player, makes him a good composer. Certanly what he composed, he composed note by note and slowly.
I never saw Freddie playing ogre battle, or bohemian rhapsody riff on the guitar.
I can compose a extreme guitar solo with 6 strings arpeggios and all that hard stuff, but if I can't play it, the only credits I get is for creating the solo not by playing it.

What you mean is: One chord - Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
Freddie a good guitar player? Smell the coffee!

I thought freddie made the riffs on the piano for brian to hear them.
