  1. Fandalism NOT Fanthology !!! :-)

    Anyone using the new Fandalism app? Seems to be a nice way for just musos to connect. Might be old news to some of you, apologies... But if you want you can look me up there , David Fletcher. David Fletcher - Guitaris...

  2. Record Collecting (Queen acetates)

    I found that Velvet Undies link fascinating, thanks! I notice the highest selling LP on the eBay links was The Beatles White Album with the embossed No.5 - the first four were given to each Beatle, so I guess that mak...

  3. What REALLY happened

    Yeah, I've been finding the "watermark" argument hard to fathom as YouTube compress the sh!t out of everything uploaded.

  4. Freddie Mercury voice discussion on OFFICIAL McCartney forum

    Gee, fans can be narrow minded - mcCartney had a terrific voice, have a listen to Long Tall Sally sung in one take. His range is pretty good too, I don't know the exact technicalities of the notes but I know a lot of...

  5. Queen "Elite!".

    Can anyone tell me what value there is in not discussing what rareties there are in your secret vaults? Is it because you expect a torrent of abuse from folks wanting you to share? Could you not just develop a thick s...

  6. What REALLY happened

    " Posted: 02 Apr 12, 12:03 Admittedly I do approach this topic from a mostly musical perspective. I just enjoy listening to stuff. Random acts of altruism don't hurt anyone. I just think that, with QPL taking their sw...

  7. What REALLY happened

    Lol! As a casual fan, I feel like I'm reading the next Dan Brown novel. Does your elite group have John Deacon locked away playing bass in a dungeon?

  8. Can Brian play the blues?

    Stealin' is a nice little blues number, well played by Brian.

  9. Queen Survey

    1. Since I discovered my parents Greatest Hits album in the early 80s 2. See above 3. Anything before The Miracle is my favourite... 4. Melodic, virtuoso or just generally interesting 5. Dire Straits, The Beatles 6. I...

  10. excuse me!

    I had to read the play Brighton Rock at school. The only good thing is that Brian wrote a song about it!

  11. Can anyone imagine what Freddie would be like if he was still alive?

    He'd be duetting with Adele, singing Barcelona. Maybe Queen would have broken up the music press would be plagued with rumours of their reforming.

  12. Current state of UK biggest selling albums ever

    If anyone is thinking of getting Beatles stuff, I'd urge you to buy the mono versions because the mixes (especially Pepper) are far superior and a more powerful listening experience. Perversely, most people these days...

  13. Big announcement tonight

    GT, "Freddie has been gone for 20 years now, the band with just RT and BM at the helm have been going longer than they did when Freddie and John were with them, an achievement in itself, no other band would have survi...

  14. QUEEN, WITH ADAM LAMBERT CONFIRMED FOR SONISPHERE 2012

    I wonder if Deaky would consider playing with Mark Knopfler ? - they both hate the celebrity side of the business, and the Knop has no intention of ever reforming Dire Straits. They could start a new group of musician...

  15. does there exist a last interview of freddie?

    The unedited interview is on DaveRFullers channel "Queen For An Hour 1989 Interview" it's full of bits that were chopped out of the original broadcast, John explaining why he chose Veronica for example. I recorded the...

  16. does there exist a last interview of freddie?

    ..... And according to my cassette notes, it was broadcast in the UK in May 1989.

  17. does there exist a last interview of freddie?

    The Queen for an hour was an interview for Radio 1, promoting The Miracle. All four of them talked about the album, their solo stuff and songs that inspire them - Freddie - Careless Whisper Brian - Tracks Of My Tears...

  18. Queen having an argument during soundcheck 1977

    Very entertaining! Anyone in any band would relate to that.

  19. Freddie's Best Album Vocally?

    Glad some people have mentioned the Barcelona album. I'm not sure about the technicalities of singing quality - but this period of recording seems to be the 'warmest' where I really get a sense of the rich character i...

  20. DId Hot Space create an aversion to risk?

    When Queen were promoting The Miracle they did an hour long interview on Britains Radio 1 - During which Brian says (paraphrased) "..we really want to please as many people as possible, we really do..." This says it a...
