Review by unknown writer

Part way through Now I'm Here, Roger begins the drum beat of Dragon Attack - the earliest known performance of the song. Freddie totally botches the words, and the band have some trouble making their way through the changes. They only play one verse of the song, after which the band return to Now I'm Here to play the final segment. In fact, Dragon Attack would never be performed in its entirety, as its guitar solo would always make its way into either the beginning or ending of Now I'm Here. The songs would be paired together through 1985.

Before Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Freddie says, "They tell me that I can't play the guitar, and I wholeheartedly agree, I tell you." Brian laughs in the background. Mercury continues, "I only know four fucking chords on this thing, and I'm going to try and include them in this next song. Are you ready?"
