    Barry de Souza and Jerome Rimson - see link here: http://musiciansolympus.blogspot.co.uk/2010/05/barrydesouza-drums.html Scroll down to 1975 session work and Eddie Howell album. He says in the interview, "his writing...

  2. Interview with Eddie Howell about The Man From Manhattan

    Thanks for that - very interesting.

  3. Queen in London: need your help!

    Also Queen Prods which was for many years at 46 Pembridge Road, round the corner from Notting Hill Gate tube. The Sun in Splendour was the local lunchtime pub - this is along from the offices on the other side of the...

  4. THE CROSS COMEBACK-CAR OR TAXI COMEBACK TO LONDON

    What time does it finish then? Can you not get a train back - last one out of Guildford to Waterloo is 11.40pm.

  6. Life on Two Legs - Norman Sheffield's Autobiography

    Great title - very astute! No messing about there! This is going to be an interesting read... Obviously his chance to tell it from Trident's perspective.

  7. Live At The Rainbow 1974 - info request

    Gary have you tried the BFI archive in Stephen Street: they have all sorts of info on this sort of thing.

  8. Paul Weller Slags Off Freddie Mercury (Among Others)

    This spat went back to when Roger slagged off 'Setting Sons' and especially 'Eton Rifles'. I seem to remember it was to do with class, as he was talking about the 'Sup up your beer and collect your fags' lyric and how...

  9. Bohemian Rhapsody / A Night at the Opera Timeline

    Hope I helped in some way... :-)

  10. Bohemian Rhapsody / A Night at the Opera Timeline

    So I was thinking about your last point and then asked myself why (from what I've read through over the last few days) when there was clearly NO time at the time to even do interviews because they had to finish the al...

  11. Bohemian Rhapsody / A Night at the Opera Timeline

    Seb - I have found an article that would be very helpful to you date wise. It pins down a few days in September where they were doing Bo Rhap vocals. Please pm me with your email: I will scan later and send it to you....

  12. Bohemian Rhapsody / A Night at the Opera Timeline

    According to Sounds on 16th August, John Reid 'is now managing Queen, since they have split up with their previous management'. Taken from Tony Brainsby records kept at the time and quoted in 'Queen' by George Tremlet...

  13. Bohemian Rhapsody / A Night at the Opera Timeline

    Well I actually remember it being said that it was fourteen c. late 1975, from interviews, so not sure about that. But could well be a PR thing from the time, just to generate even more buzz about it. Interesting thos...

  14. Bohemian Rhapsody / A Night at the Opera Timeline

    I have just dug out my QFC stuff from June/July 1975 to try to glean some info on this. As far as I can make out, I received the newsletter about 10 June 1975 and I quote from the Pat & Sue June/July '75 newsletter in...

  15. Earliest Queen Concert

    I have a friend who went and bought the programme which she still has. She said they were great. I was so desperate to go but I was too young: 13 and not living in London. That's why I read and reread the Rosie Horide...

  16. Earliest Queen Concert

    Thanks Holly - oh gawd - too many! But I suppose I have to say Kampuchea, with both Wembley '78 a very close second with the first night at Hammersmith '75. The latter because it was the week that Bo Rhap made No.1 an...

  17. The Crown Lighting rig

    That's alright! :-D

  18. Earliest Queen Concert

    ozspark wrote: My first was in 1975 at Wolverhampton civic hall it was my first concert at the tender age of 15 and what an introduction that was! My friend and I were sitting up in the balcony looking straight down o...

  19. The Crown Lighting rig

    Well, I'm not interested in contradicting anyone but I am sure myself about this because Peter (Ratty) Hince was a senior roadie with them and had worked for the band since 1975 - he'd done every tour since that date...

  20. Earliest Queen Concert

    Mine are - ANATO 1975 Hyde Park '76 Wembley (x2) 1978 Brighton '79 Rainbow '79 Kampuchea, Hammersmith '79 Dortmund '82 Leeds '82 Leiden '84 Wembley (x2) '84 Brussels '86 Leiden '86 Zurich (x2) '86 Newcastle '86 Wemble...
