As a guitarist myself I find it amazing how underated Brian is outside his fanbase. I think he was a real innovator on the instrument until the world caught up.
Yeah, I feel like Brian May was always slept on when talking about top 10 guitarists ever. Nobody had this dude’s sound. And his solos were always so right for each song. Nothing ever feels out of place nor do I ever hear it and think “it would be improved if he did this”
His guitar is so melodic, so full. His ideas were always fresh and very pleasant to listen. Let's not forget he wrote nearly as many songs as Freddie. And I agree with someone above that Queen in terms of others than Freddie. They weren't liked by critcs and public eye but loved by their fans. And they tried every fucking thing that came to their head that's why they were also controversial. And in all this, everybody forgets that they didn't just play instruments or sing - they created harmonics, they had whole songs in their heads, they couldn't do anything as maginificent without each other as well. I also feel like Roger is underrated a lot lot more. He wasn't (isn't) technical drummer but I feel like he was crucial and provided stability. Not many people know that he was in control of many things that were happening on the stage during concert, for example keeping an eye on the sound volume balance. We forget in days of computer beat, how important job drummer had to keep the whole band in time and control what was happening, he couldn't mess up, otherwise the whole band'd be out of it. Anyway, back to Brian, he is indeed an extraordinary musician, like they all.
@@marleesuarez7162 then I reccomend something without a tremolo. Its makes the guitar constantly untuned for newbs. I reccomend Ibanez, a lot of value for money. Find someone who can play who can help u buy a 2nd hand guitar.

Mine too! All around incredible man, somebody I idolize not only as a musician but as a human being. He stayed clean living throughout all the partying of the 70's-80's, he's been consistently on the forefront of many animal rights campaigns, and has put his own reputation on the line to go in heavy on political issues he cares about. A truly amazing person... I'm very thankful to have met him once growing up. Idol is an understatement
As a long time Queen fan of over 45 years… first concert Hyde Park, love the tribute medley from someone who really gets their music… awesome playing and rocking Andre. Have to say really like the tracks you picked out that are not singles… showcasing the different styles. So few bands can match the range. Loved this immensely… keep on rockin’.. 😎🎸
Brian truly is an exceptional musician, absolutely one of the greatest guitar players of all time. Underrated too strangely enough, overshadowed maybe by Freddie. You did his legacy justice my friend 👌
Eddie Bingham it is a good album :[ I thought that at first, my queen favs playlist had absolutely no songs from queen II on it but the longer you're a queen fan I think you begin to appreciate it more, I have more songs from that album on my playlist now
@Teo Torriatte if you take Queen II as well as Great king rat and My Fairy King and maybe Liar, you have the perfect soundtrack for a dramatic musical.
Eddie Bingham I understand you didn’t say you hated it, just thought I’d mention that some albums take a few listens. I especially got that with David Bowie.
Needed "You Don't Fool Me," "Too Much Love Will Kill You," and "Love Kills" but that was damn good my man. Close my eyes and all I hear is Dr. May spot on.
Not spot on. There is impatience with tempo. I always saw brian mays tempo and thought, i bet people think thats easy because his tempo is slow on this song. Like 'play the game's' tempo. But if you don't play the tempo with patience you fuck it up. It's pure rhythm. Thats why some othe songs he didn't get it right. It was more attempt at mimicing without the soul, and patience. Watch it again, and notice the song riffs he likes more, are the ones he gets right. He didn't do bad at all. Just impatient with tempo and feeling.
@@addicted_to_headbanging I'm not saying it's a bad thing to like hot space but it's considered the worst album by a landslide by most people, I can't tell if yr joking or not
@@ellabeavis9417 Out of all the Queen albums I find myself preferring this one over most. I really like A Night at the Opera and News of the World, which I both have on vinyl. I do agree that Hot Space isn't the best album ever, but I find myself liking it better than most others.
The variety of guitar licks that Brian made it over the years was totally amazing and totally entertaining. This combined with Freddie's ability to sing and also to compose made queen an incredible band, not to mention Roger Taylor and John Deacon who are awesome musicians in and of themselves.
I would pay to see you perform this. I have been a queen fan for 35 years and I have never ever seen anything so well thought out. Bravo my friend . From Liverpool UK
Great performance. And BTW I think Brian May is a bit underrated guitarist. Even when you take more pop oriented songs there's still so much going on with the guitar. Clever bits, leads, vocal counterpoints, melodic solos. It's all there. Very clever stuff you would expect from a guy with a PhD in astrophysics ;-) Long live the Queen and their musical heritage.
Queen influenced SO many artists, especially heavy metal guitarists. I remember seeing interviews with Metallica and such who said as much. Early Queen was up there, with bands like UFO and then they developed into their signature style in the late 70's and through the 80's that so many would come to know them for. LOVE this video and I jumped right to 1980 and 86 to hear you play Flash and Highlander tunes... and as always, you nailed it!
I remember back in early 2015, when you published your original "Get Lucky"video, I had just been kicked out from the band where I was simply a 'hired gun vocalist'. After having watched your video I decided I wanted to become valued not only as a vocalist but as a guitarist as well. Back around that time, I only used open chords and just a few barre ones. Fast forward two years later, I've been finally getting to play note-based riffs like you do - though obviously not at your skill level - (I've been playing guitar since 2009 when I was 14, and it did not occur to me that that note-based riffs could be sprung from barre chords until a few months ago. Seven and a half-years to realize that). And thanks to that "existential revelation" I am more comfortable playing a chord progression on barre chords (Let's say on frets after the 4th or 5th) rather than with open ones (I sometimes do use open ones when writing down new songs for the sake of reference, though). Listening you play all these riffs inspires me to keep improving my guitar skills.
I think the problem is that the majority of electric guitar players are self taught. Progress for most of them would be much quicker, if they had a classic education on guitar. Learning to read tabs, learning to read notes, correct fingering, playing scales, plus all the useful tips you get from a teacher.
@@commenterjosh2428 This is not true btw. He also did something pretty similar to it on the live performance of back chat in Leeds 1982 towards the end of the last solo.
@@wizzjo1nt5 Musically speaking, these melodies and hiffs can spend years and years in their composers' heads before they see the light of day. This may have been the case with the solo on Rain Must Fall, where Brian played the improvisation he always did at shows and they liked it. For example, see the concert in Montreal: before playing Keep Yourself Alive, they play an improvisation with melody and hiff similar to You Don't Fool Me, which would only take shape and be released more than 10 years later.
It's amazing to see Queen change over the years from Keep Yourself Alive to No One But You (not used in this but still). They started off like any other rock band of their time and by the end of it had become the greatest rock band in history.

@@ellabeavis9417 Out of all the Queen albums I find myself preferring this one over most. I really like A Night at the Opera and News of the World, which I both have on vinyl. I do agree that Hot Space isn't the best album ever, but I find myself liking it better than most others.
Queen II, Jazz, Sheer Heart Attack, and A Day at the Races. All great albums. I love the rest but I hold these close to my heart.
Thanks for reminding me what a melodic genius Brian is.
The variety of guitar licks that Brian made it over the years was totally amazing and totally entertaining. This combined with Freddie's ability to sing and also to compose made queen an incredible band, not to mention Roger Taylor and John Deacon who are awesome musicians in and of themselves.
i haven't been listening to queen for almost two years. this video made me cry. thanks a lot. love from turkey

Полюбил Queen лет в 8, увидев их клип 1986 года по телевизору. В 90-х собрал все альбомы на кассетах. Спасибо!🤝👍
Brian May: regalale una Red special a este chico.
I'm not certain if Brian May can read in Spanish, but André Antunes surely deserves such gift.
Mejor a mi😂😂
@@frankstrawnation Brian speak spanish. He lived for a while on the island of La Palma, Spain.
Brian May: hiba a tocar esta Red Special pero este chico se la merece más xd
Al fin hispanos
I applauded unexpectedly after watching it.
Brian may is and always a class musician. Not a shredder..each solo is constructed for every song. He's genial.
I would pay to see you perform this. I have been a queen fan for 35 years and I have never ever seen anything so well thought out. Bravo my friend . From Liverpool UK
I had the opportunity to see Andre live in a music club in Nazaré, Portugal (his home country). I was absolutely speechless. Achim from Zurich 👍
7:31 so glad u included dragon attack its so underrated !!
Kyoko for the win
Great performance. And BTW I think Brian May is a bit underrated guitarist. Even when you take more pop oriented songs there's still so much going on with the guitar. Clever bits, leads, vocal counterpoints, melodic solos. It's all there. Very clever stuff you would expect from a guy with a PhD in astrophysics ;-) Long live the Queen and their musical heritage.
Queen influenced SO many artists, especially heavy metal guitarists. I remember seeing interviews with Metallica and such who said as much. Early Queen was up there, with bands like UFO and then they developed into their signature style in the late 70's and through the 80's that so many would come to know them for. LOVE this video and I jumped right to 1980 and 86 to hear you play Flash and Highlander tunes... and as always, you nailed it!
Just saying Hot Space, The Miracle and The Works are underrated
Made In Heaven too
Only hot space and the miracle
Watching all this in a single video you can realize how great is Brian with the guitar ... really a MAESTRO. you rock too man!
As a lifelong Queen & BM fan, I've got to say that was brilliant!
I love how you didn't just do the hits! An amazing mix of songs, really well put together. Great video man!
Well it’s getting a bit old now forgetting all the songs Queen wrote they aren’t just the greatest hits album

@@McGarveymusic210 its a METAPHOR Brian!
@@wlliamson53 it just a bit weird Rodger what exactly are you doing to that car
@@McGarveymusic210 children please we could all murder each other but who would be left to record this album
Roger , there is only room in this band for one hysterical queen.
I remember back in early 2015, when you published your original "Get Lucky"video, I had just been kicked out from the band where I was simply a 'hired gun vocalist'. After having watched your video I decided I wanted to become valued not only as a vocalist but as a guitarist as well. Back around that time, I only used open chords and just a few barre ones.
Fast forward two years later, I've been finally getting to play note-based riffs like you do - though obviously not at your skill level - (I've been playing guitar since 2009 when I was 14, and it did not occur to me that that note-based riffs could be sprung from barre chords until a few months ago. Seven and a half-years to realize that). And thanks to that "existential revelation" I am more comfortable playing a chord progression on barre chords (Let's say on frets after the 4th or 5th) rather than with open ones (I sometimes do use open ones when writing down new songs for the sake of reference, though).
Listening you play all these riffs inspires me to keep improving my guitar skills.
I think the problem is that the majority of electric guitar players are self taught. Progress for most of them would be much quicker, if they had a classic education on guitar. Learning to read tabs, learning to read notes, correct fingering, playing scales, plus all the useful tips you get from a teacher.
Wow!! That was just amazing! Been a huge Queen nut all my life, and you absolutely nailed them all.
Overdoing it a bit. He has talent. His emotions need work. Patience is a virtue in music, as well as in life.
Simply fantastic...bravo!! As a old fan of the early years of Queen, I must tell you...what you did here is totaly insane, bro.
Love from France ❤
Bri is such a legend
Se puede ver la evolución del sonido Queen perfectamente, es sencillamente GENIAL.
This really makes you appreciate the genius that is Dr. May. You did a fantastic job!
11:18 Brian doesn't even know how he did that riff. he said he just went as fast as he could and the first take worked.
Lucky for him he never had to play it live... right?
@@commenterjosh2428 This is not true btw. He also did something pretty similar to it on the live performance of back chat in Leeds 1982 towards the end of the last solo.
@@wizzjo1nt5 Musically speaking, these melodies and hiffs can spend years and years in their composers' heads before they see the light of day. This may have been the case with the solo on Rain Must Fall, where Brian played the improvisation he always did at shows and they liked it. For example, see the concert in Montreal: before playing Keep Yourself Alive, they play an improvisation with melody and hiff similar to You Don't Fool Me, which would only take shape and be released more than 10 years later.
It's amazing to see Queen change over the years from Keep Yourself Alive to No One But You (not used in this but still). They started off like any other rock band of their time and by the end of it had become the greatest rock band in history.
“Was it all worth it” missing... otherwise... PERFECT !
Genuinely one of the most impressive things I've ever seen. An amazing feat of skill and passion.
Maan, i love Lazing on a Sunday afternoon
Doctor:You have 25 min to live
Me:Time travel to live aid queen!
Same
Irrelevant, but, funny
Julius Bardillon How’s that irrelevant
So true now soz but I'm gonna spoil the joke that u could just travel forward in time for a cure soz again for spoiling
İf you travel to live aid then you have 34 years more to live
Queen is my ultimate favorite band! Thank you for this! You're awesome
you missed prophet's song
Pranav Dave muy cierto
That song makes me crazy 😊😊😊😊
All dead, all dead...
That would have been probably hard-to-get down because Brian may tuned his guitar strings differently and he never revealed how we did it
The only reason for the thumbs down is pure jealousy...perfectly executed an thought out a credit to Queen ...well done young man 👍👍👍
New queen
Deaky: davie504
Roger: sina drums
Freddie: marc mattel
Brian: this guy
Make it happen
The hope the princes of universe queen want to live forever the show must wo on is the new queen is the hope of music
