hmmm... could it be Freddie's head photoshopped on Roger's body? Take a close look. The head doesn't seem to fit the body. [/QUOTE]

I don't know, you can see dark chest hair.

Agreed. Aside from the fact that oscar pointed out why this photo is 99 % NOT doctored.

But to me far more relevant, why Queen had a meeting in Berlin at that point ? I`ve heared or read something about it some time ago, but I can`t remember the reason for it.

Have we established roughly at what point this picture was taken? To me the only clue is John's hair, as I've said before. In Live Aid he had big hair, in One Vision video short, bit longer in Magic and Princes videos and then again big hair during The Magic Tour and short again on the video of WWTLF. Comparing John's hair on the picture with the music videos I'd say it was taken between One Vision video (autumn 1985) and Magic/Princes videos (early 1986).

I don't normally do photo restoration and I'm sure there's a plugin for these things out there somewhere, but I gave it a few minutes and tried upping the contrast and hue a bit and shifting the colour balance slightly.

Nice work, Oscar! :)

Great picture. Of course it's real.

Cause of the suspicious artifact. If it were scanned that way it ought to have been remedied. Another person questioned the size of Freddie Mercury. Another person questioned reflections.

I'm on mobile so I'm guessing it's a bit more pixelated than usual.

Could have been a possibility it only featured the three of them.

Anyways. Why wouldn't they have all been together anyways. It's doubtful they ever just hung out together at that point unless it were relevant to recordings.

Of course! Freddie had always been a small person! Especially compared to Brian lol
