    Brian May came into the NAPA car parts store in Flagstaff in 2017, all the counter men knew by the hair and clothes and jewelry he had to be "somebody", I was the only guy old enough in the store to know who he was! Really nice and personable guy.

    I don't know about everyone else but for me Freddie Mercury was the most brilliant frontman in rock history. And there 'are' so many other front men to compare Freddie with. I truly envy ALL who got to see Freddie live - I mean I watch the footage and Freddie for me had that incalculable gift of 'connecting' with what were HUGE audiences. And I would also add, as Brian says here, as it has been documented so well, Freddie knew he was 'on a clock' and just told his bandmates to "give me material and I'll sing". Think about that - with effectively no real medical options- treatment available, Freddie 'could' have just passed away peacefully as he'd stopped taking medication. But he only wanted, in his dying days, to 'create' music. Amazing.

    Freddie's brilliance as a singer and front man was probably only outmatched by his musical vision. It was Freddie who kind of drove Queen to be different, without him they may have been a typical rock band ( not saying the band members weren't talented, they all were), from what ppl I know with insight ( ex music journalists ), he refused to just follow the AOR formula.

My nephew and his fiancé are both almost 2 years sober and work very hard every day to stay sober and pay for what they did in active addiction. I'm so incredibly proud of anyone who is able to admit they need help and work hard to maintain sobriety. I can't imagine how hard it is. Unfortunately I lost my best friend since 2nd grade to addiction in November of 2015. She had been sober for 7 months and in a moment of weakness took the same amount she took while in active addiction and we lost her. Sorry for rambling. Just know that I see you and I'm so proud of you. ❤️ ❤

Rory was not that well-known here in the States back in the 70s, but me being the blues nerd that I was, I found him somehow. I was lucky enough to see him play live at the Beacon Theater in NYC in 1974. What a great show! I still have him on vinyl.

    Rory is criminally underrated and doesn't get mentioned enough as far as I'm concerned. He's right up there with all the greats -- Clapton, Beck, Page, Hendrix, etc. He had a unique voice on the guitar and was a nimble soloist, but sadly flew under pop music's radar I suppose. He also kicked ass on the saxophone too, which not too many people know.

    I was fortunate enough to have been invited to his son's wedding and was able to talk to Sammy a bit. His littlest son was with him in the crowd watching the newlyweds cut the cake, and the youngster was a little restless and happened to step back on my foot. Sammy noticed and apologized and said "he's drunk". This little kid was about 8 yrs. old! Really funny. I had also just a month or so before this talked to Brian. My sister and I caught him in front of his house in L.A. and he was SO gracious to stand there and talk to us for an hour! His first question was "Have you read the "Celestine Prophecy"? Every time you said something that he took as a compliment, he hugged you. My knees buckled about 3 times.....a beautiful and brilliant man.

    I’ve been a fan of Queen since I was a teenager. I love every single album and almost every song in them ( there are some I don’t really care for) I also like "The Cosmos Rock" with Paul Rodgers, which I don’t know why that album isn’t on Spotify anymore. But I do like Queen + Adam Lambert, he’s an amazing singer, flamboyant and has stage presence. He’s giving us the chance to see Brian and Roger touring and rocking again just like Paul did. I do not agree with anyone comparing them with Freddie; stop that!. Especially comparing Adam with Freddie. It’s ridiculous. Adam has his own personality and he’s not trying to imitate or act like him. He just took a job Brian and Roger offered him to do. He doesn’t have to fill Freddie’s shoes, we all know no one can. But he brings life to his songs his own way and the co-writers and Freddie’s mates are backing him up right there on stage giving Adam the privilege to sing them and that’s all that matters. Just sing along, enjoy the music, the beautiful songs, feel the good vibes. Otherwise stop comparing, criticizing and take your negativity somewhere else and play your favorite Queen songs. They will always be there; that’s why they were recorded for…to live forever.

    THEY SAY THAT FREDDIE MERCURY, CRIED OUT TO JESUS CHRIST ON HIS DEATH BED, TO PLEASE FORGIVE HIM FOR HIS GAY LIFESTYLE. AFTER THIS LIFE THERE IS HEAVEN, PURGATORY OR HELL AND GOD WILL FORGIVE ANY SIN, BUT WE MUST ASK JESUS CHRIST'S FORGIVENESS, REPENT, AND GO AND SIN NO MORE. 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇

    Never a huge Queen fan, but then never a full-on antagonist. One reason is Brian's astonishing axe work. But of course the ensemble was immaculate, and I wish we hadn't lost Freddie so early on, and that the band had pushed on with him to, who knows, new territory. The best of rock 'n' roll.

    Brian insists on convincing us that Adam has a greater voice than Freddie. I've listened to both in live recordings and there's no real comparison, Freddie is from another galaxy. I'm glad that Queen keeps touring but, for me, Adam just doesn't have the right voice.

    May is always implying that Adam Lambert can do more than Mercury. It’s laughable. Lambert can sing very high and he is certainly LOUD. But his voice just has a shrill irritating quality to me. And he is just plain lame. It’s great that others enjoy it but it’s not for me. Mercury was the genuine article. A one in a trillion.
