  1. Freddie and the fans

    Yes it was for the Miracle sessions in 1988 at Olympic studios Barnes...Freddie looked immaculate dressed all in white,no Rog though as he was ill. Three of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet.So in awe of Fre...

  2. How do royalties work with Queen?

    I know some people who worked for EMI in Hayes in the seventies/eighties and seem to be'in the know' so I will let you judge.Most groups/artists were on between 15%-18% of a wholesale price,Queen were one of a very fe...

  3. Fan Club Mags UK

    Thanks again...they seem to be about £10 a throw,I shall await an offer..If anybody is interested I shall accept a decent enough bid for the lot.They are fascinating to read again,I am trying to get the quiz questions...

  4. Fan Club Mags UK

    Thanks for that, I shall get in contact !

  5. Queen bits for sale,some rare stuff !

    I will be honest....I need the money! I have the uk fan club mags(mint) 1980-1998. All official videos from Greatest Flix from 1981(all mint) . A 'message from the palace' cassette interview with Brian talking to an A...

  6. Fan Club Mags UK

    Does anybody know how much the original fan club mags are worth? I have unearthed them from my loft,none written in and all immaculate. They are from 1980-1998,Thanks !

  7. Jazz

    I found if fresh,exciting and very different to their previous offerings. Anyway,that was in 1978 ! Today I think it sounds weird and unique,it was recorded in Switzerland with Roy Baker back at the helm. The critics...

  8. The Truth About Bohemian Rhapsody.....

    In 1975 Dr Brian May Invented a time machine out of bits of leftover items from his guitar building escapades several years before. He fast forwarded to AD 2005 (thirty years seemed a nice round figure) and realised t...

  9. Freddie Mercury Loses Out to Liam Gallagher of Oasis as #1 Frontman of All

    I am amazed he got even that high.That publication has rubbished Queen for years, I have reviews for Innuendo which declared the band 'Bonkers' and just basically wrote a load of tat. A Q reporter did actually ask Fre...

  10. Best tracks

    This was mooted as a possible album idea a while back...these are my favourites 1/ Liar 2/ White Queen 3/Brighton Rock 4/ Good Company(apart from the obvious......) 5/ Let us Cling Together 6/Spread Your Wings 7/ If Y...

  11. Do you think Freddie could sing the Barcelona Songs live?

    He most certainly could have sung those songs live.A lot of the parts were recorded in one take.Freddie put a lot in to that project,maybe he would have had second thoughts if he knew that his voice had 'gone to shit'...

  12. Why did Queen give permission for Under Pressure

    As I recall,that was in about 1990 when Hollywood had just purchased the rights for the Queen back catalogue.In that situation,the exposure to your music would outweigh any thought of litigation,think of the free publ...

  13. The end of Queen?

    By saying 'splitting up' you must refer to the end of live shows ? The musical is still doing very well,and a sequel isn't far off.Queen will ALWAYS be associated with Freddie,and great though Mr Rodgers was,he could...

  14. Why Mr. Bad Guy was a flop?

    Actually,It was not a complete flop,at least in the uk,reaching about number 6.Freddie only considered himself as one quarter of Queen,so was pretty chuffed,all told.In America,it just wasn't the type of music that Qu...
