Can't believe this site is still going...How many people still post on Queenzone?...not many, It's the same 10 people posting since the last time I logged In. Anyway, Happy Valentine's day!...Hopefully Mr. May is doing well after his Depression over the holidays. |

It is a dedicated crowd here for sure mate. |
| mike hunt 15.02.2020 00:14 |
Dedicated?...That's all I see Is senseless arguments about nothing. |

I agree Brenski...this site has gone down hill, but can't get Queen out my system. I tried, but I'm on a Queen bing again. Queen 2 still you're favorite? I was listening to A Day At The Races and Sheer Heart the last few weeks. Brilliant stuff. |

Brilliant stuff.good to see you back, fella. it's been fucking emotional here lately. yep. more or less. i think i mentioned this "back in the old days of QZ"...75% of the time QII is far and away my favourite Queen LP. Most of the rest of the time it's QI. TBH, i love almost everything from QI - Jazz (inclusive). But there is something incredible about I and II - that (for me) they belong with a small collection of other LPs in my collection: My specials: Abbey Road, Rubber Soul, Hunky Dory, Diamond Dogs, Rainbow Rising, Led Zep II and a handful of others. |

Queen is a very underrated album..not a bad song on it. Abby Road Is my favorite from the Beatles. |

I don't think the Queen album is in the same class as Queen2, SHA, aNatO, and aDatR. |
| mike hunt 17.02.2020 02:14 |
some of these albums are almost equal but different. Queen 2 was my favorite for the longest time, but some albums have surpassed It over time, though I still love it. I think ANATO, SHA, ADATR, Queen 2 and 1, NOTW, Innuendo, Jazz, The Game, MIH. My top 10. The order changes a lot. |

I don't think the Queen album is in the same class as Queen2, SHA, aNatO, and aDatR. there's also a nice parallel to a band they idolised in their early days - Led Zep. Some of the guitar/drum interaction is very Zep. Zep recorded their first LP in 36 hrs! - Queen recorded their first in studio "down time". certainly some similarities. |

The only problem with the album is the obvious Production and could of ended with a stronger song. Always one of my favorites albums, definitely their most heavy album.mike hunt wrote: Queen is a very underrated album..not a bad song on it.

Always one of my favorites albums, definitely their most heavy album.MTRnR is a nice little precursor to 70s punk rock. His NOTW (SHA) track expanded this theme a little. I think the nature of how the LP was recorded affected the production, but (for me) adds a little to the raw charm of the LP. |

Yea, about a year...I was Just saying nothing has changed In that year. The same 5 people arguing about nothing....I'm not a big fan of what Queen are doing these days, but Just checked out their Live Aid performance and thought they were good. Lambert has Improved over the years for sure. Keeping the music alive... enjoy you're day! |
