Great song - I think the name of the band was 'The Left Handed Marriage'. A mate of mine leant me a CD with 3 or four of their tracks. I'll pop them on You sendit, and let you all see what you think!
Correct as usual GKR
I have another two tracks from this session if there is the interest
She Was Once My Friend and I Need Time
She Was Once My Friend and I Need Time
Listed on Ultra Rare Trax as by Left Handed Marriage
Listed on the Ultimate Rarities Collection as I have listed it

thanks saves me from posting them
Sorry to correct you, but that session on July 31st 1967 was at Regent Sound, not Abbey Road. How do I know ? I was there, playing bass guitar (and piano) as part of the Left Handed Marriage.
Anyway, it's good that people are listening to them even after 38 years.

Thanks for the correction, as i stated in an earlier post, i was going by information supplied on the disc. Which may or may not have been correct.

So John, Bill Richards claims you guys were in Regent Sound July 28th - and you 31st. Was this a protracted three day session, or is Bill's memory starting to go?
Do you still have your "She Was Once My Friend" 7” edit acetate, or, has that too been lost to the passage of time?

John S Stuart,
Good resume, and most of it exactly right. May I point you to this article which might also help.
http://www.queenfans.com/articles/prequeen5.shtml.
On our Crazy Chain CD, Bill does say 31/7/67 so I don't know where July 28th came from - it was definitely the monday as it was the day after my 19th birthday on the sunday. Bill is a year older than me so his memory is probably going !
The last time I saw the "She Was Once My Friend" 7” edit acetate, was in about 1968. Bill had them all so he might still.

johnf: Thanks for the reply. My information came from personally interviewing Bill Richards, but, considering the event was the day after your 19th birthday, I guess that would be reason enough to sear it into your memory.
As for the article you mention
http://www.queenfans.com/articles/prequeen5.shtml.
It is actually plagerised from "Record Collector" magazine features - ironically - it was me who wrote them! (I notice also, that your letter of correction addressed to the magazine, is also included).
Unfortunately, one does not recieve a lot of credit (if any) when "re-published" on internet sites.
Glad that you enjoyed the article, and hope you enjoy your visits to "Queenzone".
