This early recording by Queen in early 1973 is fascinating to listen to, it showcases their unbelievable talent before anybody knew them. Anyone who heard this performance at the time must have been excited by what they were hearing, brians hard edged, jimmy page-esque guitar sound and fantastic high-pitched vocals by freddie.
