Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. Written by Freddie Mercury, the lead singer of the band-Queen, the song has gained worldwide acclaim. It is funny to think that when the song was first recorded, multiple radio stations across the country refused to air the song, because it was “too long,” among other reasons. Fast forward a few decades and it's worldwide hit with virtually everyone knowing the song.
Perhaps one of the more iconic parts is the song is the guitar solo played by the band's lead guitarist, Brian May.
Fun fact: The guitar solo was originally written by Freddie Mercury on the piano. It was then transcribed onto the guitar by Brian May.
There are thousands of covers of this solo online and this here is my humble work-in-progress version of the guitar solo. I hope you enjoy it.
