for some have come later to Queen lovers Like This grandiose live set of two "Rainbow" -Queen performances from 1974 be. Even Queen was a "newcomer" band and an audience had to conquer stressful. Freddie had contemporary wallendes long hair and his later "Schnauzer" was still far in the future. For the band, however, already appeared in designer clothes by Zandra Rhodes, had its own powerful (for that time) light show with a lot of dry-ice fog and was already more than just a "secret tip". These recordings from March 1974 and November 1974 show the band quite different than they were in the "eighties": violent rocking, raw, in top form. It was the music world to conquer, and the hit with full force. The range of music was already very amazing. From soft tones to rock crashing, Queen had everything in the repertoire. Freddie vocally in top form, Brian Divine at the "Red Special" his trademark guitar homegrown. Taylor and Deacon as Rhythm -Section who play more than just solid bass and drum parts impressive. And at the latest when the rock'n'roll songs in the end this fantastic band had conquered the audience and all their lay at your feet. In November they had then already a hit with fat in the set list: "Killer Queen" was a number two hit in the UK and have a first "breakthrough". "God Save The Queen" came at the end here already used. A year later, Queen was then with the album "A Night At The Opera" and the "Bohemian Rhapsody" to international superstars. Here, however, they show with two performances, how much potential even then stuck in the band. For me, who has been longing for many years to "live material" from the seventies, has been with this biplane here a dream come true. Much too late comes this publication, why we were left waiting long? Wonderful music for me, that's why I'm then become Queen fan. For those who are just as Queen Hitlieferanten from the radio to know: Caution, consult them beforehand. For the rest of us who have loved exactly this page to Queen: strong buy recommendation! As another reviewer notes here: "And nobody Played synthesizers" ... So, now I dive again deeply into this music and enjoy .... Queen pure. From "White Queen" to "Ogre Battle" and "Liar". A note to the sound: for me more than surprisingly good!
