But in what way was Mike Moran involved in Queen-stuff apart from All God's People , the Tribute and two FC Party-gigs ?
He co-wrote and played on the Barcelona album with Freddie and Montserrat
Jim Jenkins would be a nice mention...and Greg Brooks too.
"Fifth Beatle", self-proclaimed, was American disc jockey Murray The K. Though I always thought it was Eppy (Brian Epstein, their manager)...
I am aware of this, Dark, but that hardly makes him a candidate for "Queen's fifth member". More like Freddie's right hand...
There were 4 members in Queen. Spike was only the number five when he was on stage helping the other four. He didn't appear on any studio albums.
I'm just a musical prostitute my dear! FREDDIE MERCURY 1984
Spike played some keyboards on the AKOM album. He's even credited.
LOL There was no fifth member of Queen. Only four talented men.

Mr. Spike Edney while a very talented man himself was not a member of Queen but a musician called upon to lend his talents on the very last tour of Queen. I'm sure he would not be offended by that at all, would you now?

Cheers,
Krizzy
Long Live Queen!!!
Well, the one that was CALLED that way, was Spike... Although, they indeed were one big happy family:)
Give me a good guitar, and you can say that my hair's a disgrace, oh, just find me an open car - I'll make the speed of light out of this place...

But this is a theorical exercise, people ;-)

I guess U know the "legends" about the 5th Beatle Stuart Sutcliffe, even this is very different.


He was a Beatle at one point (before they were even called the Beatles- I think it was during the Quarrymen). I think of Stuart Sutcliffe and Pete Best as the loser Beatles. Although, didn't Sutcliffe die a LONG time ago? Anyway, I feel sorry for Pete Best- THINK OF WHAT HE MISSED OUT ON!
Kay Adams Corleone- The ultimate desperate housewife
I agree with production being very underrated.

And George Martin is the 5th Beatle - never doubt about this, Lisa.
Wilki We must all HEAR to believe
Sir George is a good man, but Fifth Beatle he is not.
Maybe it's Yoko then? (LOL)
I thought George Martin was their producer.

Pete Best does know what he missed out on. He got the boot in favour of Ringo, and he accepted it. Stu Sutcliffe is the one who couldn't handle it, as he later committed suicide.
