Im on one right now but why does nobody talk about Brian May and Roger Taylor being better than 90% of the bands of the era by themselves??

I can’t listen to Rhapsody / Rock You / Champions / Bicycle and a few others anymore, they are so fucking over-played, and have been especially since the movie. They have some tremendous deep cuts that never saw the light of day. It’s like Stairway to Heaven...I love Zep, but I bet I haven’t listened to Stairway front to back in 25 years...

They are great players, Deacon too (MIA), but for most people it was all about Freddie, and Freddie’s dead...

Their deep cuts are absolutely incredible. A few I put on the tweets:

VII XI

A formal outline for conditions of de-escalation:
1. It is a great song
2. It is a great band
3. It is a great, respectful cover
4. It was NEVER about the band or song(s), but the saturation of such songs on my radio dial
