This rare outtake from the Queen II album session captures Queen in London, 1974, through the lens of legendary rock photographer Mick Rock.
The grain on this print really sells the 1974 vibe—it feels like you're right there in the studio with Freddie. I've got it framed next to my other rock posters and it's easily the one guests stop to stare at. Mick Rock's eye for capturing that raw energy is unmatched.
The framing is perfect for a 1974 session—Freddie’s intensity comes through even in this outtake, and the print’s tonal range really pulls out the studio gloom. What I love is how well Mick Rock’s signature eye for rock history is preserved here. It’s the kind of piece you hang and keep staring at.
The black-and-white grain feels like you're standing in that 1974 studio session, not just looking at a photo. Mick Rock really captured Freddie's energy in this outtake—it's a rare angle you don't see in the usual Queen shots. Framed it in my hallway and it gets a comment from every guest.
