Brian always writes great songs. These songs during the BRIAN MAY BAND ERA are just so Phenomenal. Wrote them with such feeling & then singing them he had so much heart & soul in them. Some you can actually see the hurt in his eyes & the look on face.😢
I do not care how many people say "Queen influenced me" Brian May is an amazing singer/songwriter. It does not matter how many people say he influenced them. he is one of the most underrated singer/songwriters of the modern age.
In the US, that answer would be homophobia and guilt by association closing minds to giving him a chance. Ask the people of that age if they know who Queen is, they will say yes, then ask them to name 2 songs not played on the radio. The albums sold but yeah, people wouldnt give them a fair listen. And he wasn't as egotistical as some of the others, he was just happy doing his job. I've thought he was better than Page since about 1976. In the 60s and 70s, most guitarists cited blues players as their main influences. May, in my opinion, was the first top notch player that was a pure ROCK guitarist, as his influences were 50s rockers, Rory, and Hendrix. Fun fact: In May's long career he has only regularly played with 2 drummers. Roger Taylor on all Queen albums, and Cozy on both solo albums. He did record one song with Bill Ward, as May is the only guitarist other than Tony to be on a Black Sabbath album. Sorry for the long answer, but I believe strongly that May doesn't need to defer to anybody.
oh my god you actually saw this live? uuuaaaaaa i jealous :) well such big names of rock almoust never come to my home land Slovenia (if i tell that total population of our whole state is about 2 mil-i think that is said enough) and i always want to go to some bigger city, like London. well been there for almoust a year but earn just enough money to get home in one piece... very said story... but still we can watch it in one way or another and thats enough for me! :)
@iluvroknrol93 I am pretty sure it is based on one that Cozy Powell wrote a few years before, I dont know if he ever released it though and the version he was doing back then was not as "produced" as this one, probably the Brian May influence.
brian is a rock legend bordering on guitar diety,its like a bad drama music from the 80's.sorry if this offends some folks.again i have much respect for brian as a performer but this is a bad vehicle.

This is rocks like nobody's business. Brian + Cozy that heavy (but melodic) combo is the BEST of ALL TIME. Cozy is a monster!!

That is one Hell of a "Rock band " in sync!!
Great song!!!
yeah. never heard him like that. but 20 years ago already :D

great vid
brian may is an awesome musician
Fucking Amazing, it's just so good
2021, it still super rocks !!!!
Cozy and Brian awesome but Neil Murray also a giant on stage
Neil Murray deserves more recognition than he gets! He's played with so many great bands!
Mr May ROCKS!
there will never be another cozy powell.
Yes,i'm well aware of that!!
In comparison with alot of other guitarist,thia man does not get the recognition he deserves............
muito foda,espero que um dia a The Brian May Band volte pena que o Cozy já se foi.
No, su nombre es Mike Casswell y es un guitarrista inglese. Es un guitarrista incredible.
Brian May o melhor de todos
awesome dude
Brian is struggling a bit on the vocals, but it ain't an easy song to sing. Awesome guitarwork as usual though, and the drumming is superb.
He dose pretty well here. But possibly better at the Brixton Academy 1993
I know one of the blokes who wrote this song. He's a great guitarist too.
the J. Page guy?
@@MrSoulauctioneer yep, he lives in the same city as me
Brian May + Cozy Powell how do you get any better (ok, maybe if Freddie sang it...wishful thinking...either way...AMAZING)
@greg1912 Thank you....I actually have DVD's of Mike Caswell teaching you how to play Brian's stuff. He's fantastic.
Yes it is Mike Casswell
@iluvroknrol93 I am pretty sure it is based on one that Cozy Powell wrote a few years before, I dont know if he ever released it though and the version he was doing back then was not as "produced" as this one, probably the Brian May influence.
and the tapping solo?...
es el rey
Who plays the solo at 4:30? Is is great! Real old skool heavy metal :D
not a solo, a duet aka twin leads, Mike Caswell
dude @ 36 seconds....cowbell =
nice
Te amamos, Bri!! ❤❤❤🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
@MyMusic0201 exactly what i was thinking.
ma boi issac newton on the guitar
cozy is a legend
Needs more cowbell... 8-)
Cos I got a fever...
what happened to the tapping solo ;)
It’s played in other places :)
I feel sorry for the guy on backing vocals tapping away on a cowbell while he’s got the thunderstorm that’s Cozy Powell a few feet away from him!
@MyMusic0201
For looks and "show".
@dankerthanclanker
Yeah :) lol!
So funny that the backing vocalist is ramming on a cowbell. As if anybody would hear that ;-D
miriam stockley rulezzzzz
he has made what must be the most copied guitar on the planet besides the van halen guitars
@iluvroknrol93 Uhhh Brian May...
nice fuckin great performance!
brian is a rock legend bordering on guitar diety,its like a bad drama music from the 80's.sorry if this offends some folks.again i have much respect for brian as a performer but this is a bad vehicle.
If god exist...here's.
not the full cozy bhuna solo then. shame really. great looking show though
im going to judge that was just a random capital t...
This appeared on the 3DO version of Rise of the Robots...what a horrible game that was!
Il n'y a pas eu de meilleur band que le Brian May band. Difficile de faire mieux.
