Advantages: All Utterly Terrific Tracks Disadvantages: You Must be Joking
...Of all the music in all the world you’ve just got to love rock/rock ‘n roll. I mean its got everything you need and its everywhere, it makes you feel good, its got power, and it can really help you to work out your anger. I love a lot of music, but there’s one band in particular I love almost as much as the Beatles and what’s more most people I know also like their music, the music of Queen.
I only started to take an interest in the band after Freddie Mercury had died, not that I didn’t know about them before hand, I mean I knew some of their songs if I didn’t actually know that they were theirs. Once I did start to take an interest I found that my friends liked them too, and I find that a lot of people do, and a lot of them are people I wouldn’t expect to.
These days I have pretty much all their albums, videos, and some...

Advantages: One of Queens Greatest Albums Disadvantages: May not be to everyones taste at first
...Queen began life as a glam rock band and were signed to EMI late in 1972. The band consisted of Brian May (guitar), Freddie Mercury (lead vocals / piano), Roger Taylor ( drums ) and John Deacon ( Bass ).
Queens first single, Keep Yourself Alive, taken from Queen I did not do very well in the charts. Queen continued to tour extensively and recorded a second album, Queen II, which fulfilled a lot of their early promise by reaching the UK Top 5.

I have detailed the Track Listing Below. My thoughts on the tracks are in brackets after each...

Tracks
1) Bohemian Rhapsody ------ Duration 5.58 minutes
This track is one of my favourites, it goes on for 5.58 minutes, and it was first played in the year of 1975, when they first recorded this song. This song was written by Freddie Mercury (Queen’s lead singer). Queen released this song in October 1975 from their first number one album, which has been there best. This song was in the top 10 for like 20 years, which is very good.
I really like this song, it has classic rock, with other tones, and good...
