I share Mr.QueenFan's view in that Brian didn't say that he had MORE to do with the vocal part in Bijou than Freddie and that Freddie had MORE to do with the guitar part than Brian. In the interview Mr.QueenFan provided Brian says: "I worked very closely with Freddie on that. He had a lot to do with the guitar line and I had a lot to do with the vocal lines." "A lot" isn't "more", and IMO it's just Brian's way of saying that it was a real collaboration and they stepped on each other's areas - not that they contributed more to the other guy's part.[/QUOTE]
That's indeed a very good point.

AFAIR, it wasn't an interview, but a question he replied on his website: Saturday 9th of July 2011: http://www.brianmay.com/brian/letters/lettersjul11.html

An unbelievably quick reply. Thanks!
I once asked Brian (via his website) about who plays the acoustic guitars on Tenement Funster. Brian was probably sick in bed when they were recorded, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know. (When he came back to the studio and heard the guitars, he may have asked "who played those?"). But he never replied. :(

However, this isn't why I'm writing here. I'm writing because I have a question. You people have mentioned fascinating stuff like Brian saying in some interview that he played the Who Needs You solo. Not that I ever thought it was anyone else but Brian, but I'd love to see the interview where he discusses this kind of stuff - obscure Queen songs and fun trivia. Could someone post a link to that interview, or did he say it on his homepage?[/QUOTE]
I read that in an interview by GuitarPlayer with the title "Brian May Still Reigns as the King of Tone" of April 16, 2012. It´s a great intervew, and it´s worth a reading.
Here´s a link for the interview:

And here´s a link for the Queenzone thread where this interview was discussed:

And i´m not counting the fact that when the Queen multitracks were leaked you were proved wrong in so many assumptions that it´s not even fun!

Really? Which ones?[/QUOTE]
Talk about making a claim and then not being able to back it up...
