Queen

'II'

EMI, UK, 1974

EMA 767

BEFORE 'BOHEMIAN Rhapsody' and all the other tosh that they put out, Queen were a raging heavy rock band. Like a progressive Led Zeppelin their MO seemed to be focussed on how to rock hard rather than confound us with bizarre pop toons and Queen 'II' is a brilliant example of how great they were. This is full on hard rock heaven with Brian May doing his best to steer the ship right to the heart of punishing early seventies guitar nirvana. Right from the get they kick it into high gear with tracks such as 'Father To Son', 'White Queen', 'The Loser In The End', and the two killer cuts 'Seven Sea Of Rhye' and 'Ogre Battle. They even looked great - cherub faces and cascading long hair. A hidden classic amongst the vast Queen cannon.
