Queen for a Day - Melancholy Blues

Freddie Mercury on piano. A dash of Roger gently swishing his drums. Deacon on a jazzy sounding bass. Imagine a late night bar or strip joint.
In another era, this could have been a standard. If Freddie wasn't so flamboyant chances are Sinatra might have recorded it. Or Tom Waits!
Why it isn't an oft recorded classic is beyond me.
A masterwork of maturity.
A high note, for sure,

Grade: A+
