For clarification post innuendo ( after innuendo), 1991?

Not that much Queen-related, amo. They were one important member down.

Sorry I meant the sessions that produced mother love, you don't fool me and a winters tale, was anything exciting recorded with freddie that was exciting and perhaps remains unfinished? Also is there anything of interest from the works and kind of magic sessions? Is there truly a queen version of let me in your heart again? Thank you for taking the time to answer, I for one don't doubt your authenticity , and am glad you are prepared to share you knowledge with long us long suffering fans. Perhaps after so many years of dedicated support the remaining members of queen would perhaps engage in a project that would bring great joy to its most loyal fans!
Much appreciated, amo.

I'd love to hear more info from other albums, if you can remember. :)

"how much material exists from knebworth 86'"

Are you kidding me?

^ why would he be kidding? It's an issue that needs addressed, once and for all. Why poo-poo on an original, never-before-asked question?

ok, i'll give it a go:

1. the "fantology" are doing most of QPL's work for them - identifying the different versions of songs, locating and buying them and proving their existence
2. QPL could in fact be "intentionally" leaking the occasional tidbit, in order to "find out" via their own planted "insider traders" what else is out there that they didn't know of
3. "fantology"/traders don't mind doing the "legwork" for QPL because they benefiting from 2 (above)
4. via the occasional "leak" from Fullerist types the general proles (ie us) get the occasional worthwhile tune and this stokes up the interest in releases like the 40th anniversary rip-offs - in order to get more rare tracks
5. the whole thing keeps queen being talked about - so when some uninteresting pile of recycled crap gets re-re-re-released the hoards lap it up like obedient little stepfords...which keeps QPL's bank accounts topped up nicely

"Let Me Live" was and or is brilliant SPECIFICALLY because both Brian May and Roger Taylor sing on it. Not that a full Freddie version would not be great but the whole deal with Brian and Roger being lead singers are what fascinate me with Queen. It gives depths and deminsions to the group that they might not otherwise have. Certainly in comparison to most other recording groups.

I still don't know what "Fanthology" is. Why do people start talking about something that obviously the general public have no idea what you are talking about?

It's nice, but I wish they could have done it with a song that has lyrics that don't suck.

A group of collectors of various Queen material who trade rare stuff with each other and try to make sure none of the stuff they share with each other gets released outside their circle, lest the underling Queen fans who aren't a part of the special circle get their hands on it. David R. Fuller was a part of the group, but then started posting some of it on his YouTube channel so that the puny mortals could all hear it, which made the Fanthology very very mad. That's how I understand it, anyway.

Yes, it's true

We are keeping the original version of Let Me Live with Freddie on all verses, the 8 minute Bohemian Rhapsody, Deep Ridge, Surrender to the City and the long version of Seven Seas of Rhye in our archives. We will release them when The New Order is ready.


Strange how the Fanthology has been seen as some kind of Illuminati, while it's 'just' a group of Queen experts.

And yes, I was being sarcastic.

Or at least, that's what the Fanthology wants you to believe...

This is the most interesting topic that's been posted on here in a long time, thanks
