Great shout. Spent many an hour listening to this, with a decent pair of headphones, when I was a kid.

Roy Thomas Baker was a great knob twiddler.

All good stuff....
First time I heard this Brian May guitar solo I was blown away by the atmospheric stereo effects & since then I've seen him perform it live 4 times.... absolutely brilliant.

Ha, ha, ha. Jimmy Page and Eddie Kramer must have had great fun twisting those knobs back and forth.
Talking of Kramer, reminds me of Kiss; he didn't produce this one but the mighty Bob Ezrin did:

The point of stereo is to try to reproduce the image with depth and height as well as create the illusion of the performer in front of you.
As such this recording is amazing.
Considering it was recorded in the 1950s, in one take, no multi tracking, valve amps and mics it is quite incredible.
What a beautiful voice and song
