  1. Picture of Fred on stage with Ibex or Wreckage

    It’s a toss up for me. He could be running his Fingers in his hair making it look how it did in the late 70s. Otherwise I don’t think it’s Freddie. But just my opinion.

  2. Songs Featured in Bohemian Rhapsody

    Well... if you recall from the family supper scene, Freddie did play a bit of ‘Lazing on a Sunday afternoon’ . It was a nice surprise hear a snippet of that deep cut.

  3. Hammersmith 1975 ticket

  4. Hammersmith 1975 ticket

    My guess would be reliced. It looks too clean and the ageing looks artificial... but I could be wrong.

  5. Put me in Bohemian

    Thanks for the reply.

  6. Put me in Bohemian

    How did you know you made the cut ?.

  7. Freddie's Record Collection (Rock Albums)

    I always thought “Lazing on a Sunday afternoon” reminded me of “it’s a jolly holiday” from Mary Poppins.

  8. Roger's 1970's Coin Necklace

  9. Roger's 1970's Coin Necklace

    Significance... again a fair question... Let's see... for starters, IF the coin is a 1974 Einsenhower dollar then it makes sense to say that it might have been a souvenir from the band's first trip to the USA... and g...

  10. Roger's 1970's Coin Necklace

    It’s a fair question .... from what I understand this is an American silver dollar. Eisenhower would be my guess - circa 1974.

  11. "Is this the real life" by Mark Blake

    Many years ago, when I had a small website running called “ghost of a smile”, Blake contacted me requesting to use some information for his book. I obliged and asked if I could get credit listed plus a free copy of th...

  12. Queenlive.ca turns 10 today !

    Glad to have been a part of it, Bob. Kudos to you for continuing to keep this website alive.

  13. Looking for Teo Torriatte Instrumental

    Hi all... I'm looking for a good Karaoke / Instrumental mix of Teo Torriatte. I want to teach this song to one of my school choirs. Is there an multitrack instrumental to be had around ? Any help would be greatly appr...

  14. Hollywood Record and Island Record on Queen, which one betee

    I think it's a matter of taste and availability. I have no qualms about the 1991 Hollywood releases as this series was my first exposure to the band. Do I enjoy the sound of the 2011 remasters ? Absolutely, but not en...

  15. Freddie's piano adjust?

    This is an EQ box to adjust certain frequencies. I used to have information on this device but I believe it has something to do with how loud the piano sounds (with the mic) through a monitor or amp. There was probabl...

  16. Bohemian Rhapsody 40th Anniversary vinyl

    Hi all. Did anyone else receive the 40th Anniversary vinyl ? In spite of the sleeve (I thought they should have gone with the UK cover), I thought the product itself 'looks' wonderful. I would like to know if anyone h...

  17. Playing across the chord vs. playing scales

    To ThomasQuinn, This is probably the most thorough, honest and musically sound answer I've read on this forum. I for one really appreciate this. Thanks for the explanation. I may use this for my own teaching purposes...

  18. Brian May 8 points star meaning

    I've always had a theory that the star had roots deeper than Queen. If you look at the Smile logo, there is a similar star drawn. I wouldn't be surprised if the (let's call it) Back to the Light star referenced this l...
