Live Killers was several years after the album (doh!) - when was this supposed libel case/threat supposed to have been made? Were they supposed to have been sued in court, or settled out of court? There's this thing called article license. If someone wrote a really nasty song about someone, then years later, randomly claimed it was about so and so - would they be able to sue the songwriter? Surely not. Maybe if there was printed or audio record of the band/Freddie linking Sheffield to the claims/accusations in the song....?

Not an expert on libel cases, but surely in addition to compensation the guilty would need to print some kind of retraction? lol Still reckon this is bollocks.

There is one for sale at the Facbook group: Auction This Day! for GBP 10 excluding shipping (from UK).
If you are not a member of that group, or don't want to become one, let me know if I can be of any help to get it to you.

Cheers,

That'd be fab - please do ! Thanks.

Auction This Day ... hilarious.

Did you get sorted?

I ask because I've just stumbled on a source of multiple paperback copies - a restaurant owned by his daughter.

Interestingly, there's a NATO RIaA award on the wall, which seems an odd souvenir for the ex-manager to get.

And what do you make of it?
John hated Hot Space. Frederick's favourite singer was not Paul Rodgers. Roger didn't compose 'Innuendo.' 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hasn't got 180 vocal overdubs.

I've only read the first couple of chapters, and it's OK so far.

I did notice that the list of " albums and singles recorded at Trident" at the back is very confusingly written

Ride a white Swan by T rex - the capitalisation is extremely random. Also there's no mention of ANATO, but there is of Bo Rhap - which is mis-spelt. The main text seems to be written OK, fortunately, otherwise I'd be driving 200 miles back to get a refund!
