"Hammer to Fall" is a 1984 song by the British rock band Queen. Written by guitarist Brian May, the song is the eighth track on their 1984 album The Works.
It was the fourth and final single to be released from that album, although the single version was edited down by thirty seconds in contrast to the version on the album. Different sleeves were used to package this single and the live picture sleeve is now a collector's item. The song harks back to the Queen of old, with a song being built around a hard angular and muscular riff. The song features Freddie Mercury on lead vocals.
"Hammer to Fall" was a concert favourite, and was the third song the band performed at Live Aid in 1985. The song features in the setlist of both The Works Tour and The Magic Tour.The full album version of the song appears on Queen Rocks while the single version appears on Greatest Hits II and Classic Queen.

I love the video, I'm a beginner at guitar (started 3 months ago) and because of your lesson I'm half decent at playing this song now, THANKS!

I'm not a beginner, but I always wanted to know this song properly... this lesson pretty much nailed it for me!! (now, I just have to get THAT tone....)

Hello again...
I’ve noticed you’ve done 5 different “Hammer to Fall” videos - which probably means you love this tune as much as me.... but I dont have the ability to listen/learn then play... I can follow anything, (your hammer/ your hammer album) but i could never figure it out myself. I was wondering/hoping you might want to do the outro from anything, like ‘Live Aid, Wembey 86 or even 2017 - Adam/queen... or even just a whole “hammer” live set - every Queen/May guitarist wants to play a whole live version.. Again - thanks.. for everything... I love your channel - its the best.
Geoffrey Bodin Thanks 😊 Someone else just suggested the Live At Wembley outro a few minutes ago. I don’t know why I’d never thought of it before. 😊
James Rundle awesome, looking forward to it, and thanks for posting the One Vision into solo today... The wife was out for an hour today - was the perfect thing to learn.. again - my favorite channel... Thanks. Geoff.
Nice one as ever ;)
Cheers Marc :)
What tuning are you in
What kind of pedal you use to sound like that! Amazing Tune!!
Tanks Diego, I'm using Guitar Rig 5 software with VoxAC30 and treble booster settings
i always use the bestpractice program for the right tuning :) goole. Keep on rockin '
maybe you could do a play along :D
+Bas Dicou I did this play along a while back :) czcams.com/video/fDQFdLheqiE/video.html
could you maybe do a short video for the acoustic version? either from '98 or from ukraine, return of the champions? :)
MrBrambo98 yeah I should take a look at that one
