Topic: QUEEN + STEVE HOWE Posted: January 25 2006 at 07:05 |
I am a big Queen fan, luckily i`m finding all their import discography, recently i bought the album "innuendo" one of my favourite album from the last era of Queen and i noticed that in the main song "innuendo" in the middlle part plays Steve Howe, the booklet show it in the last page with a final phare "thanks steve", amazing how two guitars brain join forces for the last album of the greatest british formation

Innuendo is one of my fave songs by Queen. Steve Howe only makes it even better.
Sadly, Innuendo was the last Queen album in the life of Freddy Mercury. R.I.P. Freddy
Actually it was my first meeting with Steve Howe.

Queen were apparently the support band to Yes's "The Yes Album" tour - but I can't remember seeing them with Yes at Kingston Poly!

The spanish guitar thing was Steve Howe? I'm going to look him up after this.
Innuendo is a great last album--I don't really like Made in Heaven, which to me feels depressing and empty. However, Innuendo seems to combine everything that was good about Queen in their golden days.
The title track is like a Bohemian Rhapsody. Steve Howe makes an excellant contribution to it.

I read this gem well over a decade ago, that Queen were the support for Yes, when Yes were promoting The Yes Album, in a dire fanzine level biography of Queen. When I read it, I went What!!!! I can't remember the support band at all from that show but I do remember Yes being booed on for being over 30 minutes late starting their set! Better still I also accidently crashed Yes's dressing room afterwards and so had a brief chat with Jon Anderson - along the lines "great set" and "apologies for breaking in on you"! Back stage passes - what were they?

Steve Howe handles the flamenco-like classical guitar solos there.

That is truly freaky. I was JUST listening to that song today, and I had no idea that was Steve Howe.
"The Show Must Go On" gives me chills everytime I hear it. I must
admit, however, that I don't much like the majority of Innuendo.
