"Great King Rat" was written by Freddie Mercury. At the Beeb features a different version of the song recorded in December 1973. This song is an example of Queen's earliest sound, with lengthy, heavy compositions with long guitar solos and sudden tempo changes. In the middle part of the song, the lyrics contain some lines that can be interpreted as anti-religious, such as "Don't believe all you read in the Bible / You sinners get in line / Saints you leave far behind...". One of the riffs in the instrumental solo section was later used in the more popular Stone Cold Crazy, from 1974's Sheer Heart Attack. There was to be a song after this one called "Mad the Swine" and the two were to link seamlessly into each other (hence the reason why the drum solo at the end has no ending), but the band and producer Roy Thomas Baker had a debate about the quality of the percussion of the song, and it was not included with the album until the 1991 US re-release.

Hi Bella Angel. Queen did use synthesizers...eventually. Their early albums were actually labelled "No synthesizers used in the recording of this album" - by the time the "Works" album arrived in the mid-1980s the use of synthesizers was integral to their work. That said they were still one of the greatest live bands thereafter and reverted to instruments for most live shows thereafter. And there you have it!

Pure brilliance ! Thank you very much for this magnificent upload. I just found out that Queen never used synthesisers and I am truly amazed. I have always loved Freddie, and now I believe they are one of the greatest bands ever! So ahead of their time! Love, light and peace to all here! xx
