The band officially formed in the early 1970s after May and Taylor’s former band Smile split after having released an album and single. Freddie replaced Tim Staffell as vocalist, and John Deacon joined in February of 1971, playing bass for the band that Freddie renamed “Queen.”
Queen’s first self titled album was released in 1973 and received little attention from the general public. They shortly followed it with a second album which still lacked much interest from music fans all over Britain. Despite this, the band began developing a huge following in Japan and witnessed their popularity for themselves when they visited the country, mainly in 1975, to promote their fourth and most famous album “A Night at the Opera”, featuring the epic
Queen’s popularity grew strongly throughout the 70s as they released album after album. Fans continued to worship the band right through the 80s and into the early 90s before Mercury’s death On 24 November 1991. The official cause of death was bronchial pneumonia resulting from AIDS.
Over the course of their 30 year career, the band did sound tracks for two films (Flash Gordon and Highlander), released a string of live and studio albums, and became idols to many people across the world.
