X X X thanks X X X

Dear Becca,
I have The Freddie Mercury Story: Living On The Edge. It was written by David Bret. Take care and have a nice day!!!!!!!!!!!

I can tell which NOT to read-
Rick Sky, "The Show Must Go On". Utter crap.

Read QueenZone - there's a lot of experts in details of Freddie's life.

So Jim's and Peter's are not the best after all? I guessed they were just because they were closest to Freddie than anyone else who wrote his bio.

They don't know a lot about Freddie before 80s.

You're right. How about the later years? Are there better books than Peter's and Jim's about that period?

Pity, but there are no other books about this period, except some good articles about 'Barcelona' project.

I preffer Freddie's interviews to any books about him.

Yeah, but I even preffer to LISTEN to Freddie's interviews (I mean LIVE interviews, not those which are taken from the same old guys like Rick Sky or tabloids, most of them are fabricated fiction).

Yes, interviews are better than any books. And I love the live interviews because there you can be sure Freddie is really saying what you hear, not some journalist or even some friend of his writing it down.

'Freddie Mercury - The Definitive Biography' by Lesley-Ann Jones is pretty good, but there are some errors and fictioned stories (very few, but still). Maybe this one is the best to the date!

Thanks guys im going to go to waterstones this weekend and have a look for the suggested books.

Thanks a lot X X X
