Its 1974, Sheer Heart Attack

I have forgotten how good this album it. Some serious guitar work in this masterpiece!



Any, that is all....

Hitting the mountain bike trail this early morning...

This very well may be my favorite Queen album. It is amazing the masterpieces they created so early on in their career, and so ahead of it's time.

Great album! I still listen to some of the tracks today.
I saw Queen at Madison Square Garden in 1976. I wasn’t even a huge fan of the band, but the show was amazing.
I still remember Brian May‘s solo spot with the Echoplex and a huge stack of Vox amps. Total mind blower.

I bought it when it came out in 1974.

My favorite Queen record. And perhaps my favorite album of all time.

Wicked good!!!!

I was only 8 when it came out. Didn't give a proper listen until I was about 15.

You have heavy overdrive, drop D tunings, whammy bar, echoplex. Masterpiece!

Just got off the trail. It's supposed to hit 100 degrees in my neck of So Cal today.... I was able to get a good ride in. Now home and do some practice, have another gig in two weeks...

Last gig:

Love Queen! All albums are great to me, but yes those early albums have a "rawer" vibe that is unique.
Btw, talking about Brian May he probably has some of the very best guitar tones ever recorded IMHO; then add in the songwriting / arrangement skills, laid back positive cool attitude, smart guy with unique gear & style... a true genius and epitome of the classic rock star.

Looking forward to the Buda live release in theaters next week!
