Queen Deep Dive: "Cool Cat" tapping on the toe with a new hat
from Tater Thoughts · host Charly Tate
This rare Freddie Mercury/John Deacon co-write almost included improvised vocals from another notable performer. But perhaps, it was for the best that they were removed? "Cool Cat" is a minimally funky and jazzy number that perfectly encapsulates that groovy era. Roger and Brian sit this one out, but in Freddie and John's capable hands, this song jives and moves along comfortably, endlessly listenable and incredibly relaxing. Freddie's falsetto is truly something special.
