They never turned up for an interview drunk or high or started swearing or anything like that, the way lesser bands and artists often do. They were always elequent, polite and well spoken. Just how it should be done.

Freddie’s parting words, ‘Goodbye and God bless you Keep yourself alive’. Perfect. Loved Maxanne and WBCN. There was no other station. WBCN ruled!

Amazing band !!!! Queen 4 Ever!!! Beautiful people, excellent voices, all talented!!!! Love them Always 💞🇬🇷

Freddie’s laugh brings pure joy to my heart!! 💛👨🏻♾👑

I love Freddie's young voice

Queen is the best

My god, Freddie has most appealing and infectious laugh!

I use to listen to Maxanne every single day she was on. She was a huge queen fan

6:53 "We hAtE comprOMIsEs!"

Good bye & God bless keep yourself alive! 😄 Oh how I love Freddie!! ❤❤❤

I miss these guy's saw them live in the late 70's and early 80's 5 times it was a great moment in time you just had to have been there to experience that kind of magic ❤🖤

You're very lucky to have got to see them live! I've only seen Brian in the 90's and the later versions of Queen +.

Great interview. Very respectful DJ. Nice to hear well thought out & intelligent questions. 😏

Thanks, very interesting and candid interview. You can tell they were way more open with the medias around that time, especially Freddie, but that was before the critics started lashing at them.

Quite nice interview! Thank you! Quite sad that John does'nt say anything, but you know he was shy. :)

Thanks for posting! 6 days later they would open the American tour in my hometown of Waterbury, CT. It was the first time Bohemian Rhapsody was played live in America. Unfortunately, I was a little too young to be there.

Really great interview here! Thank you for posting this!!!!! What history!

You should look through all the interviews. John spoke a lot as the band got going.

How is this recorded so early, 3 AM holy moly 😶 I love listening to their voices, they all have such soft voices and especially Roger's is just melting me really, he is my favourite definetely 🥴❤️

ahh BCN If only I was around back then.."the good olé days"

Further evidence that WBCN WAS and remains the greatest most influential rock station.

When I was a teen, I applied at WBCN and WCOZ. I wanted to work for BCN cause of Aerosmith. That was their station! (See Maxanne!) COZ hired me and was the best thing that could have happened! (Timing!)

She also did another interview with them about a week later as I recall. Other shows that might feature in the WBCN archives are some from 1973 where Maxanne aired Jac Holtzman's 15ips Sarm reel of Keep Yourself alive i.ibb.co/DQcwG7z/1973-KYA-1-Demo.jpg

Yep, I've got that one as well. John is there, that time! From Jan 29 1976, not long before their soundcheck for that evening's show. Didn't know about her playing the Sarm reel! Cool. Is there anything different to that version? I'm figuring that one has been released in some form?

Interesting, Here, Freddie says he never was in "Smile". Says he suggested, he join Brian and Roger as their singer and form a new Band, Queen.

@kamenliter

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, this is true, he was never in Smile, at least not performing under that name. It's a matter of semantics, I suppose, if you could call the unit of Freddie, Roger and Brian working/rehearsing songs together before they had settled on the name Queen as a version of Smile. Especially as there is a 'Queen' version of the Smile song Polar Bear. When they recorded that demo, I'm not sure, but I believe it was after they had already decided on Queen as the name of the new band.
