Music That I Like – Freddie Mercury Edition

For Suzette, who has great taste in music

Here’s some Queen for y’all.

I love Queen, especially Seventies Queen. They had an awesome sound, and lots of presence on stage, mostly thanks to Freddie Mercury. Fantastic shows, and crazy-ass sounds.

This is from their first album, recorded during studio time that Paul McCartney had reserved, and then never shown up for. (He apparently did that a lot; they got a lot of free studio time because of that.)

Holy crap, look at those pants

Queen - Keep Yourself Alive

Thanks!

I read an interesting article that said once you understood Freddie’s ethnic background, that explained his penchant for striking wardrobe selections, often in reds and bold patterns. I don’t know – seems like a stretch to me, but whatever. Freddie in tight pants is a yes.

My YouTube favorites feature a lot of Queen. There’s something utterly unforgettable and amazing about Freddie Mercury. We’ll never see another like him.
