Great... how fortunate.
I think the Wham! were big in China. They toured there in 1985 i think!
The biggest outsider selling artist in China is Julio Iglesias (at least some years ago, he was!)
About Queen, i never heard a thing. But with the right promotion, can you imagine the huge sales an artist could get?
But in the end, they would probably loose money because thats a very cheap country!!
Take care

I have no idea! Turn them into "rowdy, rock and roll, raving, gays"?? Your guess is as good as mine! Ah well, they missed out.

Well, you know how the USSR were all against western rock music and all... stupid paranoid politicians...
...Napier-Bell also revealed that he had sabotaged the efforts of rock group Queen to be the first to play China.
To prevent this happening, he made two brochures - one featuring Wham!fans as pleasant middle-class youngsters, and one portraying Queen frontman Freddie Mercury in typically flamboyant poses. The Chinese opted for Wham!...

That was to do with INTERNATIONAL DEFENCE, like NATO! Queen wasn't exactly a military threat!

Yes, but weren't all members of the Warszaw pact pretty much puppets of the USSR? Yes, they were.
