Radio Ga Ga Radio - In Brian's collection.
How dare he do what he likes instead of what other people want him to! As for the choice of allegedly mediocre singers, they may not be everyone's favourite (they're not mine, either) but there's a reason why he picke...

Eddie Van Halen Dies
He was still quite young, almost the same age as my father. Cancer sucks!

Let Me Live
My favourite solos of his are 'These Are the Days of Our Lives' and 'Who Wants to Live Forever', which are precisely on the albums preceding and succeeding 'The Miracle'. I agree that's probably the strongest album in...

Let Me Live
Yehoshua would've probably been more into 'let me die' than 'let me live' type of lyrics. He may have tried out a collaboration with Michael Ehrmantraut titled 'Shut the Fuck Up and Let Me Die in Peace', featuring Gra...

Let Me Live
In fact, it's been said it'd been around, in embryonic form, since 1976. Now, these are all guesses so take them with a pinch of salt: - Races: Two gospel-influenced tracks would've been too much. - News: Too soon aft...

Contemporary article about 1978 Jazz album launch, translated from Dutch
Interesting to see Frederick was a bit sore after having had a smaller contribution earlier on. And keep in mind 'Champions' was a reject from the 'Opera' era, so he actually only wrote two songs on 'News of the World...

Excellent interview with Peter Jones (FM's driver & friend).
Smile may have had a lot of things going on for it, but it was still going nowhere. The same, however, could be applied to Frederick: he had talent, creativity, etc., but without Brian, John and Roger, he would've pro...

Freddie's guitar solos
Reportedly, Frederick gave Brian the task of creating a solo for 'Bo Rhap'. Brian sang it to him and Frederick thought it'd be good, so he greenlit it. The melodic 'Great King Rat' solo may have been created by Freder...

Decision to share songwriting Credits
Frederick was still the most prolific songwriter through all those three sessions: - The Miracle: He was the main author of four tracks, a bit of a 50/50 partner on two others, and contributed to the intro of another...
