I'm not a Friday Music fan usually and all my Friday Music records sound dull but not this one. The store I bought it from had it a while prior to my purchase. The reason for that is on this recording. Heart had an impressive start with Dreamboat Annie but it wasn’t until they released Little Queen on September 1975 when they finally managed to solidify their spot in the rock ‘n roll pantheon. Use tube mixing boards which is why it sounds better than other Heart vinyl releases. It's not folky as in Steeleye Span or Fairport Convention, or proggy as in Jethro Tull though - definitely their own thing. Unable to add item to Wish List.

The first releas…, The group intended Magazine to be the official follow-up album to the debut Dreamboat Annie. I know this release is listed as released in 1989, but I bought my copy of this particular version in early 1985. I'll put the hard hat on now. The bonus material here includes "Too Long a Time," an early demo version of "Keep My Love Alive," that is faster and offers the backing vocals in a more prominent place than on the finished version. Little Queen was the band’s debut for Portrait and their second album proper, released one month after their previous label Mushroom had issued an unofficial Heart album. The 2004 24-bit remastered and expanded version of Heart's seminal 1977 album, Little Queen (the band's major-label debut), is a revelation.

Anyone doubting just how much Heart's ballads have changed over the years need only play "Dream of the Archer" next to a high-volume power ballad like "Wait for an Answer" from 1987's Bad Animals. A fresh listen to "Keep My Love Alive," with Nancy's droning guitar riff and textured acoustic guitars wrapped so elegantly around Ann's voice (before her beautiful flute lilts in the turnarounds), offers a multidimensional portrait of Heart as songwriters of the first degree, who understood not only nuance and dynamic but the possibilities of a recording studio.
