Queen

In December 1977, when Queen took the stage at The Summit in Houston, they were riding high on the success of their album *A Day at the Races*, which had been released just months earlier, in December 1976. This album featured the iconic hit "Somebody to Love," showcasing Freddie Mercury's incredible vocal range and the band's harmonious blend of rock and opera. As they performed “’39” that night, audiences were captivated by the blend of poignant storytelling and intricate harmonies. Interestingly, this track from the *A Day at the Races* album reveals Queen's knack for pushing musical boundaries, mixing folk-inspired melodies with rock elements. The live recording not only captures the band in their prime, but it also highlights their ability to connect with the audience, turning a concert into a communal experience. Little did fans know that this live moment would become immortalized, a testament to Queen's unforgettable live performances that defined a generation.
