From the 1978 Jazz album and written by Freddie Mercury. The song was released in 5 countries including the US but failed to chart.
It’s a piano based song but features the Hallfredh acoustic guitar which is heard on White Queen (As It Began) The guitar had been given a replacement hardwood bridge, chiselled flat, with a small piece of fret wire placed between it and the strings, which lay gently above. The strings produce the "buzzing" effect of a sitar.
