Who is the 5th Queen member ?

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)...

LOL Wilky. :D

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.

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

Well, the one that was CALLED that way, was Spike... Although, they indeed were one big happy family:)

But this is a theorical exercise, people ;-)

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

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!

I agree with production being very underrated.

And George Martin is the 5th Beatle - never doubt about this, Lisa.

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.

There was no fifth Queen member!
There is no and there never will be a fifth Queen member!!!!!
