Not sure how I missed this one.

Queen’s Prophets Song - cover by Cellar Darling, from 2018 -

Wow. Pretty close to the original. The multitracked vocals are probably easier, technically, than when Queen did the original. But you still have to sing it.

Hurdy Gurdy - it works…! Metal Guitars - yes. And the Drums - that will be Merlin… (really)

A truly righteous sound.

Wonderful, just wonderful.

We managed to see them three times on their 1972 tour. The first, a small club in Birmingham called Barbarellas, was utterly brain melting. The next week I was all over the place. Wayne was on our side of the stage, we were on the same side at the front. He gave us the evil eye, threw a cigarette at us, which we kept (and lost). Rob spent a good while singing whilst slithering across the stage, and in Rocket Reducer 62 made me and the wife sing Rama Lama Fa Fa.

Three magnificent albums.

Sigh.

I like this singer, she can be quite frightening in a strange way…

She’s not scary… And she is not very tall either… :slightly_smiling_face:
