That was so cool- Only Freddie could get away with things like that- and the band knew every note he did-and could follow him no matter how he switched up a song! We Still Love You Freddie!

[@rollothecat2010]

Freddie was a true front man. He sgnalled the other players when to come in and when to finish. Probably practiced like crazy. I have read they practiced more than nearly every other band back then.

The Hectics, the band Freddie was in at boarding school, covered Elvis, Little Richard and Ricky Nelson. It was the students’ version of the Beatles, according to interviews with Freddie’s classmates. They loved the Hectics. Freddie was not the leader nor lead singer, but did play the piano.

[@cybolton302]

That Queen was doing Cy Coleman’s Big Spender in their earliest shows - 1974 - says a helluva lot about Freddie and the band. The song was a killer from the musical Sweet Charity, initially a book by Neil Simon, then the musical in 1966, conceived and choreographed by Bob Fosse, then the film. Here’s the whole number from a Fosse tribute: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaWah3hrgbhnm8U The single singer who covered it best was probably one of Britain’s best, Dame Shirley Bassey, who also notably put her huge voice to the theme from “Goldfinger.” kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3uqXn1nj7l6ndk Queen would have known all this. The point is Freddie and Queen were filling out their shows with extended encores of all sorts of music (Elvis, Gene Vincent, Bing Crosby), already demonstrating a variety of influences. That’s how bands become legendary.
