passthej45 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Recorded on IPAD, no vocals or melody, that should make it really tough, and it's really aptypical for this band. It's from 1975 . A good strumming song I just rediscovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatbaroque Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 i liked it....but how about another hint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passthej45 Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 i liked it....but how about another hint? The singer is dead, he was a very mercurial character. They were a royal success for a while. I probably couldn't listen to them much now, except for this particular song, which was played on a 12 string...

passthej45 Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Something off "A Night At The Opera" maybe? Yep......"39" off " A night at the Opera" . Seriously hadn't listenedI to Queen in about 35 years , and really can't manage to now at all, but this was a pretty cool "faux folk song " that Brian May did on the 12 string( Ovation no less......yeeeeeeech) apologies to KSdaddy. Wasn't he the Ovation guy ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good strumming song I just rediscovered. OK. Swear I've not read any replies on this thread. Only found time to listen now. It's Summer of 39 by Queen (Brian May alone really). Right? Very appropriate for winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he was at it with the whole band at the same time... greedy paws.

I think they'd ban Honey Monster now, though. Come to think of it, I'm not sure why parents aren't up in arms because their little darlings chuckle at the mention of Sugar Puffs.
