A LEGENDARY BAND - QUEEN


QUEEN

Brian May (born 19 July 1947, lead guitar & vocals)

John Deacon (born 19 August 1951, bass guitar)

 Formed: 1971 in London, EnglandYears Active: 1971 through 1991, 1995

 Queen was a glam rock/heavy metal band that started out in 1971 after guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor, who together had been in several bands, decided to form yet another one and joined up with vocalist and some time piano player Freddie Mercury. After a short time bassist John Deacon joined them and in 1972 they were signed to EMI Records. Their first single "Keep Yourself Alive" was released shortly thereafter but didn't sell well. Then their debut album Queen came out in '73 with a combo of glam and hard rock songs on it.

 BUT FOR TODAY'S ENTRY, I WOULD LIKE TO FOCUS ON THE ONE OF THE WELL-KNOWN ALBUMS FROM THIS LEGENDARY BAND : THE NIGHT AT THE OPERA
The 12 tracks that make up A Night At The Opera comfortably broke the 43-minute mark, and like its predecessor, the sequencing of this record creates its own dynamic. This is an album that should be listened to in its entirety rather than through the unpredictability of random play and shuffle.
Released - Dec 2 , 1975 , MCA Records. Produced Roy Thomas Baker and Queen 

MINI REVIEW

A nice happy go lucky album put out by Queen. Freddie Mercury's vocals are super once again, especially on "Bohemian Rhapsody" which goes down in my book as the best rock opera ever done by anyone. Freddie's vocals also stands out on bassist's John Deacon's "You're My Best Friend", which is the next best song on the album. Then you got drummer Roger Taylor's heavy metal number, "I'm In Love With My Car", which is yet another winner. This band never had a problem when it came to hard rockin'! Throughout A Night At The Opera is the fine over laying guitar work of Brian May. This album will put a smile on your face every time you give it a spin!

Hari Terakhir Di KMKt

..... LAST DAY IN KMKt..... Walaupun kami hanya sempat mengenali satu sama lain kurang dari tempoh sebulan, Ramadhan pada kali ini memberi saya satu peluang yang sangat berharga. Ahli kelas saya semasa di matrikulasi mempunyai hubungan yang sangat erat seolah olah kami sudah lama kenal. Mereka sangat bersemangat dan mereka sangat membantu dalam menghilangkan rasa rindu kepada rumah saya. Saya sangat selesa bersama mereka. Pada hari saya mendapat panggilan ke IPG, mereka berpakat untuk iftar bersama sama buat kali terakhir dan saya amat menghargainya. Sehingga kini saya masih berhubung dengan mereka dan ternyata hubungan kami juga masih rapat. Saya amat berharap untuk berjumpa dengan mereka pada  masa akan datang
