  1. News Of The World 40th Anniversary Box Set - ITS OFFICIAL!

    For me to regard this as a success and worthwhile release I want Houston dvd in full, at least 1 hour Bob Harris doc dvd and a cd of alternate versions -i.e. at least 10 tracks and not made up 'instrumental' versions...

  2. clarification of Thor Arnold's role in Freddie's life

    Hi Thor Do you recall a gay club quite close to Logan Place called Copa's? Full of moustaches and singlets. Ha ha. One of Freddie's friends used to go there a lot - the UK DJ and comedian Kenny Everett. Did you ever m...

  3. clarification of Thor Arnold's role in Freddie's life

    Thor, great to see you refer to Freddie's 'hotel name' as Arnold Mason. In 1979 on Queen's UK tour some friends and I managed to get to the suite floor of the hotel they were staying at in Liverpool. Something I'm ash...

  4. Earl's Court 6/6/1977 - HQ Footage HELP!

    When will you have this ready and how will you distribute it? I am extremely interested in this because I was in the front row on the 1st night (thanks to the fan club - Amanda in those days). The hues and tints of th...

  5. Rank the partial Queen downfall, especially in the states

    matt z wrote: I here ya Dysan. it's going too far. to add: suppose someone said the expression "sexual intercourse" .... well, that is still defined as penile insertion into a vaginal orifice. Namely because it origin...

  6. Body language, sweet lady and white man, the 3 worst queen songs

    My Baby Does Me, Don't Lose Your Head. And The Miracle track. It makes me feel sick. And i can't get my head around the begining of that album Party and KS just confuses me. Big fucking noise.

  7. Were Queen on Do They Know It's Christmas?

    Queen were not asked due to the South African business. I think Freddie could have done the first line perfectly (it was originally meant for Bowie but went to Paul Young).

  8. Question about Jazz Album

    Another odd thing about Jazz is that it was the first album since Queen that didn't include the lyrics. Especially as there was so much room on one side of the inner sleeve or the back of the bicycle race poster. A fe...

  9. First ever concert and what number was (were) Queen

    Earl's Court 1st night 1977

  10. Freddie's mum Jer is gone

    Nothing on a Google search

  11. New FM book - 'Somebody To Love"

    Short chapters and now at Ch6 but it is really centred around AIDS. Where it came from and how Freddie's life ultimately led to him catching HIV. It is isn't hysterical or judgmental and has good reference pages. In f...

  12. I bought it

    I take your point but I think the key word there is "moment". The moment of first hearing it's interesting, but subsequent hearings are tedious (to me anyway).

  13. New FM book - 'Somebody To Love"

    Anyone read it yet? Just got a copy at WH Smiths in UK.

  15. I bought it

    Weirder...... Looking up Children Of The Stones I found a fan page with pics of fans posing near the stone circle location used in the TV series... https://mikepitts.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/west-kennet-long-barrow...

  16. I bought it

    Interestingly, a British children's TV series - Children Of The Stones - was broadcast in early 1977, the same year that News Of The World was written. Was the theme music an influence for the improv section of GDML?...

  20. I bought it

    I bought the 2 cd version because i remember listening to the '77 session on Radio 1 when it went out. Of course I got SYW and MMB on the 2011 re-issues. Got WWRY (fast) on the Sun give away way back (No I didn't and...
