Most criticism of Brian, or rather expression of disappointment relates to his career/music choices since the turn of the millennium and some peculiar ego and personality traits that have emerged in the last few years.Not his music during Queen's active years.

Back in reality, Brian remains one of the most respected people in the biz.

I assume thats to be taken as an additional point only because it doesnt counter anything in mine.

My comment of “most criticism” obviously only applies to the rationale of those that criticise.
Not of those that don’t.
You are totally disingenuous. Or deliberately obtuse. Or senile ? Or just illogical.
By the way I like Brian May.
You are on record as saying you don’t,
So when are you and “Bob” going to have a heart to heart on that.

and you're just hopping from one argument to another - just to cause trouble. are you sure you're not a close relation of Gerry?
i may have said i disagree with some of his viewpoints/decisions. there's even a number of his songs i don't like.
...but that is not disliking the person.

I do not hate May you dickhead he is a guitar legend but he is my least fave member and he sadly lost the plot by now. And now fuck off and let those talk about the music who have a clue. You are obviously not one of them you sad prick

Hot Space is great it was my first Queen album - and you are an idiot (but we knew that b4)[/QUOTE]
Always fun to pop in here and read what this clown is saying.
Weckwerth, if that was the first Queen album you bought, and you think it's great, fuck knows what shit you must have been into at the time.
I like the album, but I don't think it's a great album. It's more adventuress than what followed, but not only is not on the same page, it's not in the same book as what they'd recorded through the 70's.
[/QUOTE]
As you are clearly a deaf dum and blind idiot you surely dont know whats good or whats not - in 1982 it was ahead of its time and regardless to taste (which is what music is all about) it was very daring for a band like Queen. And if you sad fucktart did not know it by know - QUeen experimented with LOTS of styles be it opera, Pomp, Heavy. Vaudeville of pop(/funk, which is what side 1 is all about. Side 2 is a continuation of The Game. No need to thank me for another Queen lesson asshole

Spoken with the knowledge of someone who doesn't know him and has never met him, or anyone else in the music industry.
You're at odds with most, if not all, the people who know Brian May.

I don't feel that 'Hot Space' is a bad album at all. I think the overall negative reaction to it is three-fold : at the time of its release, some of the funk/disco songs on it made Freddie's overt sexuality a little too obvious to many listeners (it really pushed it in their faces this time around, not just skirting the edges); listeners didn't want Queen to take the funk/disco sound any further past the novelty of "Another One Bites the Dust", and wanted them to go back to emphasizing Brian May's guitar work; and a few of the songs on the album are simply average, not warranting a lot of radio airplay.
But Queen were one of the few bands beyond the Beatles to REALLY vary up their sound and cover a lot of musical styles, and 'Hot Space' is a two-thirds successful attempt at doing that in my book. The only truly weak studio album from Queen during their years with Freddie, in my opinion, was 'The Miracle', which was too fluffy and weak in songwriting. It's the only official Queen album I refuse to own. 'Hot Space' deserves reevaluation from fans. Take away the homophobia in this country surrounding the album, and you'll see it wasn't bad at all even if it was their weakest album to-date at that point.
