Hi all! First off, I have just been delivered a copy of said album, and I think it's great! Okay, Now, The songs "Abandonfire" and "I Cry For You" are credited to Taylor/Richards. My question (maybe a stupid one...) is, Who is 'Richards'? Is it David Richards (who co-produced the album), Or someone else? Thanks for any answers you lot might have!

It is indeed David Richards, famed producer/engineer of that album and many of Queen's albums as well.
Yeah, it's David Richards... According to the booklet, David did approx. 50% of all keyboards on this record.
I have a 1996 remaster of the album from Holland, and in the booklet it gives no details as to who played what and where. It really ticked me off. ;) I figured it was David Richards, But I just needed to be sure. Thanks to you both!
Actually David played 50% of keyboards in Fun In Space. Strange Frontier has no credits. We do know John was in a couple of tracks thanks to a Roger interview in Japan. Not neccesarily playing, he could have been mixing or something. Roger also mentioned Rick Parfitt (whom he said was the best rhythm guitarist) played.
Of course, Sebastian is right... I thought of the wrong album... AGAIN!
Freddie sung some BVs for "Killing Time"

And he probably co-wrote that one!

David also wrote "Horns Of Dooms" from Freddie's Box Set.
I don`t think Fred co-wrote Killing Time. Maybe he put the interlude, but the song per se is Roger`s from here to Messier 31.

Maybe. I meant that he probably put some of his own ideas on it.
For sure, John played bass on one Strange Frontier track. His bass playing is unmistakable.

Yes, but most of the bass-parts in the album are either synths, or so simple that Roger could have handled them himself. Not all of them of course... someday I should make a deeper insight of that for my website
