Your favourite VOCAL-PHRASING lines (studio versions)

I think they were working on Flash sooner than we realize.

The reason why the red special isn't heard on that glorious solo at the end of The Hero is because it was at the other studio where the other three were busy recording The Game.[/QUOTE]

Not really. 'The Hero' was recorded near the end of the sessions, in October 1980. By then, 'The Game' had already been released and had charted, and they'd already toured the album. The guitar was in Munich because that's where they were based, but it was long after 'The Game'.

intelligent man!

No matter where the band or BM has been based, BM's equipment, guitar, treble booster, deacy amp and Or AC30 have always gone with him when recording, both prior to and since recording the Flash Gordon album.

Being based in Munch would not be a reason for not using that setup, unless it was setup and in use at another studio.

Both RT and DM have said that there was a shortage of time and so BM recorded a lot of the FG album on his own. This would tie in with the idea that FG and The Game were under way at the same time. The fact that Brian didn't use his usual guitar and amp set up I'm sure was down to having to put that part on tape in the time he had inbetween his time working on The Game.

RT also said at the time of it's release at FG was Brians baby and he spent a lot of time running between sessions

my favourites to crank up is

one vision - "all we need is -- one world wide vision"

headlong - "there aint no stoppin and you cant stop rockin"

Not true. His guitar and rig *usually* went with him, but not *always*.

It was a reason. Brian took his guitar to most places, but not all, and he did it most of the time, but not all of the time.

Not really. It simply indicates that the other three were up to other things. Anything more specific than that is just a shot in the dark. Moreover, by then (October 1980, when Brian realised more work needed to be done and re-recorded bits and added others), 'The Game' had already been written, recorded, mixed, mastered, released and toured.

Not really. It was in between his time committed to band meetings, personal life, planning tours for early 1981, making decisions about the upcoming compilation, etc. 'The Game' had already been written, arranged, recorded, mixed, mastered, pressed, released and toured by then.

Yeah, running between Advision sessions and Utopia sessions, etc., not between 'Game' and 'Flash' sessions as by the time they started to work on 'Flash Gordon' properly (June 1980 in London), 'The Game' had already been written, arranged, recorded, mixed, mastered and was in the process of being pressed and released.

That may be so. But if it is why are you quoting everything as fact?
