John hated Hot Space. Frederick's favourite singer was not Paul Rodgers. Roger didn't compose 'Innuendo.' 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hasn't got 180 vocal overdubs.

One of my favourite moments with him was the creation of "Track 13" for that album. David and I lit up joss sticks and candles in the control room, powered up every machine in the building, and sat 'painting pictures’ with synthesisers and samplers against a slowly changing backdrop of drones - for the whole night - something like 8 hours, by the time it had evolved. Roger wafted in, enjoyed the vibe, and played a 'solo' half way through, and wafted out. Then somehow we got to a place where it seemed like the music had taken us all the way through some kind of worm-hole and out the other side. In the refreshing emergence we thought we could hear Freddie laughing - still not sure where that particular sample came from, but we left it in ... it's all mixed in with echoes of classical themes - the music seemed to have a life of its own. And - no - we didn't take any drugs !!!

By the way, another piece of eidetic memory from Dr Bri:

We, as Queen, met David when we first stepped into Mountain Studios in the 1980s
