2 days ago (on 10.11.2016.) I've noticed that Rare Share: Queen Collectables Facebook page has changed its name to Collecting Queen. I didn't pay much attention to that until Gary Taylor wrote this on queenonline forum:
Because my working relationship and friendship with Greg has ended recently, I made the decision to delete the 'Rare Share: Queen Collectables' YouTube channel. Thanks to everyone who watched the videos I made, and either contributed their own to the channel, or just commented on each film. I may start the channel up again under a new name in the future.
He also made a comment on Facebook, regarding the Queen On Air artwork:
The cover is crap. Unfortunately, people who know nothing about the band's history work on the album covers and contents photos.
I am very sorry to hear this. Guys, what do you thing happened ?!

And nobody really watched their channel, actually .So it was obvious that this project sooner or later will dead.I think soon followed by the dismissal of Greg and Gary.I think in the company faced with a creative collapse

Nice to see honesty coming out from the ashes of this.

As a collector of Queen vinyl, I used to watch the videos.
It's a shame they are gone.
Wish I'd archived them myself now.

It was me who played the piano. I can accept that you don't like my playing (you have all the right to), but I won't tolerate disrespectful comments. Neither towards me or my personal friend Gary, who has spent *hundreds* of hours of hard work either gathering memorabilia, filming, editing or uploading the actual videos. All of this using his personal time, expecting nothing in return but the satisfaction of contributing with some useful insight into obscure items to offer to the Queen collectors community. Gary has been throught heavy stuff during the past year or so. I won't make any futher comments on that but I consider it worth being mentioned because that makes his contributions and time even more valuable.
As for myself and like Gary, I did put a lot of my personal time (which is scarce, specially when you become a father of two kids) and heart into those "lame piano covers", solely to contribute with the best I could, nothing more, nothing less. My piano skills may not be great (hey, here I have some shocking news for you, Mr. I-know-it-all: I am not a pro). Unlike you, I am one of those who think that it's the intention what it counts over skills in some occasions.
By the way, how have you contributed to the Queen fans community at all, apart from writting stupid comments like a teenanger troll with a lot of free time on its hands?
I certainly hope that we can meet face to face one day and you make such comments in person directly to me and not thru a computer like cowards like you are used to. I bet you will run to your cave like a scared puppy (my apologies to you, scared puppies for underrating you, in case that you are reading). I hope one day I can see how brave you really are in real person.
PS: F*ck you. ;-)

I thought the piano playing was pretty good. Some of the rare items were rather naff, but on the whole it was a worth while channel I used to check regularly. Sadly it's gone, for now anyway.
