This is Why Freddie Mercury Said HE Was WORRIED about JOHN DEACON

John Deacon contributed to Queen primarily as a bassist throughout his career. When he joined in 1971, he strengthened the band’s sound with his homemade electric guitar amplifier Deacy Amp, which he created using his electronics education. Besides playing bass, he also initially created lyrics for the song ‘Misfire’ from the third album ‘Sheer Heart Attack.

During a 1976 interview with Capital Radio, Mercury praised Deacon for his contributions to the fifth album ‘A Day at the Races.’ While talking about the album’s tracks, he revealed that ‘You and I’ was written by Deacon, pointing out how Deacon was creating excellent songs. He humorously said he worried that the band’s quietest member John Deacon was improving with every album. He also noted that his friend had an enthusiastic spirit under his quiet-looking personality.

Freddie Mercury said “That’s the end of side one of ‘A Day At The Races.’ That was a track by John Deacon, his contribution to this album. His songs are good and are getting better every time. I’m getting a bit worried, actually.”

To date, I believe Brian May and Roger Taylor have not really recognized/recognized John Deacon's technical, financial and musical abilities, nor have they underestimated his consistency, something Freddie Mercury must have seen.
