The Show Must Go On + Hammer to Fall
it should be mixed again. The level of the keyboard/guitar in the verses and chorus should be changed (as in up!). The background vocals (2nd verse) are not properly mixed either (too loud). Guitar solo should be loud...

Shure 565 (”gold”) Queen microphone question
You are right. This particular mic was almost all the time used in a live setting. For in the studio there were much better quality microphones used.

Shure 565 (”gold”) Queen microphone question
@togg, I understand what you are saying, but this particular brand (Shure) and mic type (565 Unisphere) is what Freddie actually seemed to prefer using in the studio (not in all studio sessions but most likely in some...

Shure 565 (”gold”) Queen microphone question
@P-Tr extinction event The microphone in the LPDA video (TOTP) has a gold colour top end, but the rest of the mic is black. The one that I have is an ”all gold colour” microphone and was owned by Freddie (as it came f...

I own a ”Shure Unisphere1” dynamic microphone, model 565 gold, which was given to me many many years ago (for free) by the late Jim Hutton (and I assume it used to be stored in the loft of Garden Lodge) It shows ”Quee...

HELP NEEDED: Pro TV footage for a new Queen documentary
@sikke You are being paid to produce a (new) Queen documentary to be broadcasted in the Netherlands right? Can we just assume that you are not very good at negotiating a good business deal or forecasting certain costs...

Freddie and drugs on live performances.
Freddie used cocaine at Wembley 86 exactly before ”Now I'm Here” was performed (which is exactly after the BM guitar solo) Watch the performance and you will notice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mEjNM2xYxA Jim Hut...

Tie Your Mother Down (cover) ... Excellent!
Just saw this on Youtube. This (French) guy recorded his version of TYMD. I think its pretty original and the background vocals are really cool! The first part of the song is the acoustic version, then the standard ve...

What was the band's/Freddie's least favourite country to visit?
@luthorn, that is not true. Queen (nor its members) took Swiss residence or stayed there after 1986 for tax purposes. Before 1986 (especially at the end of the 1970's - beginning of the 80s) they were tax exiles. Afte...

What was the band's/Freddie's least favourite country to visit?
Slane Castle / Ireland / 1986 .... I think Freddie swore never to come back to Ireland after a fight in the audience occurred and Brian being hit by a beer can.

Queen albums / tracks with the best / worst sound quality.

How did Jim Hutton survive so long?
My perception is that it really had to do with Jim's own immune system/genes + treatment, which probably explains that he didn't get full blown AIDS at all. I actually think that his Irish roots have something to do w...

New Demo?
hahahaha .... I was the one who made this ”little mix” some 8-10 years ago, never pretending it to be a Queen demo in the first place! The drum is Roger's, guitar is Brian (from the US Innuendo promo tour) and the lit...
