Does anyone know of any mistakes queen made on the backing tracks that remained on the cut versions or mistakes in guitar solos. Im just wondering because there is a beatles site that have lists the makes in every beatles song, and it seems like every song has a mistake such as slight tempo changes, wrong notes hit, people talking in the background etc etc. that site is http://www.stevesbeatles.com/, its a great site.
I know queen were perfectionists so there probobly are not very many, the only i can think of is you can hear the piano peddles a few times in the millionaire waltz.
cheers

if you listen closely on every track, you can hear something!
sleeping on the sidewalk was done in one live take and you can hear bass mistakes from john.

Where exactly? People are always mentioning this song when talking about mistakes on Queen albums, but I've never spotted any mistakes. Well, maybe I should get new pair of ears (well, headphones, at least:)

Sleeping On The Sidewalk was played 'live' in the studio, but Brian has previously said that he spliced together a few different takes.
In Breakthru, as they go into the second chorus there is no crash cymbal - I'm not sure that this is a mistake and was probably intentional, but it never sounds right to me and drumwise always sounds as if it is a couple of tracks spliced together at that point.

It's not a mistake per se but I noticed there is a kind of odd backing vocal at 4.28 in The Millionaire's Waltz when they sing "I want to share it with you"...someone kind of extends the word 'you' with a vocal that seems totally out of place with the rest of the harmonies. It was probably intentional but it always grabs my attention when I hear it.
In one of the interviews with Brian May, on one of the DVD's - they "split" up Bohemian Rhapsody and listen to only the piano-part (I think), and Brian said that Freddie played a wrong note on the piano...
Damn with the overzealous way you all pay attention to these songs I'm beginning to wonder if any of you actually take the time to actually ENJOY THEM........Whewww.......
At the end of Sail Away Sweet Sister, you can hear Freddie hitting a false note on the piano.
Surely Brian played the piano on SASW?
