Queen A Night At The Hammersmith Odeon 1975

1 year ago

Queen crowned a glorious year with a special concert at London's Hammersmith Odeon on Christmas Eve.
In contrast to their meticulously intricate and sometimes delicate multi-layered studio arrangements on Queen, Queen II, Sheer Heart Attack, and A Night at the Opera, Queen are raw, loose, and propulsive here.
It's invigorating to see them kick out "White Queen (As It Began) ", smartly inserted into a medley of "Bohemian Rhapsody" and played with an aggressive, punk-like intensity.
This show from the final night of their triumphant UK tour was broadcast live on BBC TV and radio, and has become a legendary event in Queen's history.
