It's about time that I share an isolated vocals track from of the greats - Freddie Mercury. The song "Somebody to Love" from the album "A Day at the Races", isn't exactly a favorite Queen song of mine, but it does show the highlights of Queen in their prime, and Freddie's amazing vocals, along with the backing vocals. But besides that, I honestly like to call Freddie one of the best vocalists of all time.

Arctic Monkeys - Brianstorm (Isolated Drums)
Today's video comes from the UK indie band "Arctic Monkeys". As the opening track, and first single from the album "Favourite Worst Nightmare" this track features a very intense tom-heavy beat played by drummer Matt Helders, who also happens to take up the duty of vocals on the track "D is for Dangerous".

Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd (Isolated Guitar Solo)
Today's video is honestly a southern rock staple in terms of classic rock. Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird" is one of their most iconic ballads, if not only for it's length, but it's many solos in the song.

Rio by Duran Duran (Isolated Bass)
Today's video is from an 80s hit single from the band "Duran Duran". Most know them from their hit "Hungry Like the Wolf", but this track was another hit single, whose album shares the same name as this song. This song features a really funky bassline which I could picture in an episode of Miami Vice.

Dear Prudence - The Beatles (Isolated Drums)
Today's video shows the isolated drum track for the Beatles song "Dear Prudence". This track was recorded in August, and released in November, as a part of the "White Album", as the second track. Instead of Ringo Starr performing the drum track on this song, Paul McCartney takes his place. The reason for this is because Ringo Starr had temporarily quit the band, but after making up, he came back to finish recording the album. This song and "Back in the USSR" are the only two songs in which Ringo Starr don't play drums on.

Something About You - Boston (Isolated Vocals)
I consider Boston's self-titled debut album to be one of the best Classic Rock albums of all time, in my opinion. A lot of this album is honestly perfect in my opinion. All of the instruments sound energetic and pure, and considering this was all recorded in a home recording studio in the 70s, that is one hell of a feat. This video shows singer Brad Delp's isolated vocal track to the song "Something About You"
