      Because as UA-cam explains, videos with too low camera quality suffer, but the truth is, too much people pay for followers and likes on their channels to get better started. I didn't and will never! Before I would do that, I would rather close my channel again! But don't worry, for me it's a hobby besides my real musician job, so I don't care, because I don't have to make a living of it! Cheers and big hugs,

      To be honest, I kind of lost interest after 'A Night at the Opera'. I really tried with 'A Twist' and 'At the Edge', but the songwriting seemed less inspired and the drumming, although very good in its own right, just didn't stand up to previous releases, both in terms of production and power.
      For me the band reached its creative peak with ANATO.
