  1. Queen ON Air

    Roger just on Steve Wright on BBC Radio 2 saying the same thing (that he hates listening to old interviews). It's like he completely disconnects from the product his company is selling. I suppose we can expect the Ste...

  2. Flick Of The Wrist - Double A Side Single, or was it?

    Re the WARC / WWRY double A side thing. I remember at the time that WATC was No.1 in France "only to be replaced in the top spot by WWRY". I have no idea where I read or heard that. Does this suggest that it was a dou...

  3. Real Queen fact? Somebody owns it?

    Sorry, missed that these 2 links were posted earlier. The quad mix was probably created (apparently Roy TB mentioned it according to someone on QOL) but it's doubtful it would have gone as far as production, let alone...

  4. Real Queen fact? Somebody owns it?

    Looks like it was created but never released 2 interesting links... http://www.quadraphonicquad.com/forums/showthread.php?12720-Queen-%28debut-album%29-quad http://www.surrounddiscography.com/quaddisc/quadnot.htm

  5. Queen: On Air (Pre-order now available)

    Nice to have all the sessions. But FO with your interview bollox. (has anyone checked if one of the interviews is the one included on the 40 years bollox book that included a faulty CD?)

  6. Trip Khalaf Interview

    ^^^ I think that if you openly wear a gay club's t-shirt in public the you obviously do not give a shit. He wore a 'Mineshaft' t-shirt on the 1979 Don't Stop me Now video. (Mineshaft was a very heavy NYC gay sex club)...

  7. Trip Khalaf Interview

    Vocal harmony wrote: ^^^^ true, but the question of people knowing, he was openly guarded, if that makes sense. Yes he had the look in the 80's and was seen at gay night clubs, an had a group of gay friends but he nev...

  8. Photo exhibition at Richard Young gallery

    free to enter. I just called them.

  9. Queen's messages to fans

    The fan club convention in 1978 in London had a message sent over from the States (where they were touring Jazz). The convention was hosted by UK DJ Alan Freeman. Although I was there it is 38 years ago and I can't re...

  11. Best crescendos in Queen's music

    Just for clarity (for anyone that does't know). 'crescendo' is a musical term that means grow louder. The opposite is 'diminuendo'. In a music score a cresendo in the music is shown by a < under the music streching ou...

  12. Knebworth Park 30 years today

    There was a similar problem at Milton Keynes. When the show finished they had to keep the three main banks of the lighting rig on in their final position at the end of GSTQ (white and facing the audience) because ther...

  13. Dave Clark article

    For what it's worth, a company I was working for in the 80's were involved (in a minor way) with the artwork for The Miracle. We were using the original pics that made up the composite 'head' on the cover. Fred's pic...

  14. New financial figures

    Hopefully Greg is on a zero hours contract.

  15. Another Freddie Mercury compilation album on the way

    This is SO fucking shit. I can not understand any Queen / Freddie fan buying this if they already have those tracks. It's just fucking infantile putting them out on coloured vinyl in an attempt to create a 'collectabl...

    I don't remember Las Palabras at MK but I was off my tits by Teardrop Explodes. Always thought Need Your Loving Tonight would have worked brilliantly live. With a whacked up snare on the verses and all those crash cym...

  18. How many gigs were 'pro' recorded ?

    I was at Empire Pool in '78 and saw no evidence of filming.
