  1. Band Wars: Earth Wind Fire vs. Sly Family Stone

    But EWF is a great band too! I saw them live in Brussels, a couple of years ago (without Maurice White, though, who didn’t like touring anymore, apparently). Their CD Plugged In And Live (1997) is absolutely one of my...

  2. Testing your ears

    I would say 1. the bass line of “Breakthru” was inspired by AC/DC’s “Whole Lotta Rosie”. and 2. the guitar riff of “You don’t fool me” was inspired by the bass riff of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”.

  3. Firence - very different Setlist!!!

    I think it’s not so much Paul’s adding “spaces” or ornaments to the melodies, but more the somewhat darker color of his voice we are not used to. And yes, his rather turgid interpretation. This, in combination with th...

  6. Firence - very different Setlist!!!

    Never had any objections to Paul joining the band, and still think he is a brilliant singer. At the gig I attended (Paris), I was impressed how he hit all the notes perfectly, also in his ‘a capella’ singing. That sai...

  11. Queen show in Rome after Pope dies.

    Fairy, You are right. I was not surprised either when reading about Freddies habit of praying. Just thought that many others wouldn’t have imagined, as Freddie is so often associated with his wild parties.

    Here it is stated that the song would date from the "Hot Space" period: http://queen.musichall.cz/index_en.php?s=de&d=hspace_en
