Ian Hunter: Your nearly Did Me In

I find this one a weird listen. In one sense, the Queen vocals in it sound terrific and very Queen-esque (for obvious reasons; it's Queen singing them). On the other hand, it's the exact same phrase (musically I mean, though lyrically is also true) repeated every single time they sing, something completely uncharacteristic of Queen music, which makes it a very jarring experience in my opinion. Compare this to You're My Best Friend, Killer Queen or The Prophet's Song, where each chorus is unique in some way.

know what you mean...there's some weird timing in particular the lyrics don't seem to marry with the tune in places.
I used to own the album - All American Alien Boy - it's not bad, not great, but not bad either. And, despite the absence of his Mott bandmates, it still sounds (musically) like a Mott album.

Billy Squier:

Freddie and Roger on 'Emotions in Motion'
Brian on '1984'

Magnum: Roger on Backing Vocals on the tracks
'when the world comes down' and 'crying time' (he produced their 'Vigliante Album' together with David
Richards.

Robbie Williams 'Eternity' with Brian

Brian was on on track of Carmine Appice's Guitar Zeus...but I not remember the name. Brian was even
on the cover of the single...

Brian on Paul Rodger's 'Little Wing' and 'I am ready'

Brian on 'Shift in the wind', 'Slot Machine' and Cassandra by Steve Hackett

Brian on 'if theres a Heaven' by Tony Martin

Sorry...Shift in the Wind is Chris Thompson...

ITSM : I can not hear any evidence of Freddies appearance on "Andrew Gold's" "All this heaven and more" album on that track "Never let her slip away" ?

that's because he didn't. Thought this had already been established earlier in the thread:
[QUOTE] [b]ANAGRAMER wrote:[/b]Gold is also known for his biggest UK hit song "Never Let Her Slip Away", which was a UK #5 hit twice, by him and again at #5 fourteen years later by Undercover. Freddie Mercury, who was a friend of Gold's, has been mistakenly credited with assisting him with the harmony background vocals of the song. Gold himself explains in his liner notes for the CD version of 'All This & Heaven Too' that it was actually Timothy Schmit and J D Souther.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for clarifying that ! I only read the head opening lines on this topic!

The Sabbath song Brian's on is When Death Calls, definitely worth checking that one out! Cozy Powell was in the band then, too........

Tony Martin era - Headless Cross
i liked his Sabbs stuff - he made a handful of albums with them, in fact he helped give them a new sound - a bit more raw/dirty.

and, not that I need an excuse to get my Anti-Gillan soapbox out, but TM's stuff was so much better than that [ahem] Gillan Abortion that was "Born Again" - fucks' sake that was one shitter of an album

There's no mention of Foo Fighters "Tired Of You". Brian plays a beautiful part of guitar in this song.

Gerry: I "hear" Freddie on the one sentence: "On a schoolday afternoon." (Andrew Gold - Never Let Her Slip Away, on the album All This and Heaven Too), I think it's strange that you don't, hehe.

Brian plays on a cover on Love of My Life by Extreme - released as a b side to their 'Song For Love' single

Some great info on Roger's guest spots here too:
