This is wonderful. I prefer the performance at the Hammersmith Odeon. To me, it is richer, musically.

I agree but this one they do show more of Brian. Still no comparison to the Odeon version. Best Queen Live Performance Ever!

Love this live version--Love the live version at Hammersmith-Odeon in 1975 even a bit more--especially the musical interlude.

I absolutely love this song and this is my second favorite live performance of it after Odeon, Hammersmith 1975.

Never got to see Queen at this early stage (or any stage) of their career, but having seen dozens of other band's concerts, what I appreciate is how Queen craft the song for Live stage performance. They're not copying themselves off their own records. Heck, they change things up from concert to concert even. Freddie varies his vocal delivery, pacing a bit. He changes pitch & tone as he needs to save his voice. The band are not afraid to add embelishments here & there. Now I understand why many fans at the time followed them to each show during a tour. This is not a cookie cutter band.

I am so non-technically skill-wise, so I only know this is my favorite piece from Brian. Where, during the musical duet, he has the Red Special singing so beautifully to the heavens for the love he cannot have. Freddie is in superb voice, gorgeous piano work. Roger and John keeping the percussion going. 'White Queen' live in concert is a treat to the ears.

Hi Justin! Although every performance by Freddie/the band is wonderful, with this song my favorite is actually from the following year in 1975 at the Odeon Hammersmith… It was perfected to a work of art!

The instrumental part is mostly improvised, so it's different at every concert. As many already mentioned here 😁 it's better in the Hammersmith 1975 version -> kzitem.info/news/bejne/x26r2YKgbapqgXY

That was nice, and any post production probably focused on that piano. Pianos in rock shows were notoriously hard to record live back then. They usually just had a single microphone positioned over the strings, which would then of course feedback or pick up everything else nearby. So pianos were usually turned down to the point they were hard to hear.

Thanks, Justin.. so beautiful... as noted below, though... the same song at Hammersmith was just a "tetch" better IMHO... lol.. Still, the amazing interplay between Fred's keys & Brian's guitar... (honorable mention to bass & drums, of course) .appreciate your reactions...

I thought there was something wrong with the audio with half the guitar missing and then realised it was The Rainbow version, not the one from Hammersmith.

An amazing performance. They are all so on point. I have to giggle watching the close up On Freddie’s hands bc boy is he unorthodox in the way he plays. Amazing fun fact: the piano line was not part of the original composition.
