Notes:
First four tracks recorded for BBC radio 5th Feb 1973. Second four tracks recorded for BBC radio 3rd Dec 1973. Producer Bernie Andrews. "Son And Daughter" incorporates part of what would later become the "Brighton Rock" guitar solo. As a concession to being broadcast live on the BBC, the rude word in "Son And Daughter" is changed. UK, US and Japan release only. Released on the "Band Of Joy" budget label in the UK, not EMI. Released as "At The BBC" in North America, in completely different packaging, on Hollywood Records. The US version is also digitally remastered. Roger sings lead vocal on "Modern Times Rock'n'Roll", and also on the last part of "Doing All Right". Queen recorded not only these two sessions for the BBC, but a total of six. The other four (one in 1973, two in 1974, and the last in 1977), all remain unreleased, although many of the individual tracks have been bootlegged.

Singles:

None, although three "digitally remastered" tracks appeared as B-sides to "Let Me Live" in 1996.
