Quite an interesting short piece in my opinion.

Although Tim Staffell seems to acknowledge his limitations, he insists on presenting himself as the "original band's singer" ("original singer with pre-Queen band Smile" on his web page).
Probably because "original" means not only the first one, but also authentic, genuine, actual, real, true, veritable, not copied...

I havent checked out his site in a very long time but what he says is technically right - he was the original bands singer. For me though, he wasnt in the same league as Freddie eventually became.

Thanks to Mooghead for pointing out the typo...... :D
