This for me gave some interesting facts that I never knew, apologies if its been posted previously.

I never knew that Smile were originally a four piece & also that the Mercury single only reached
the '' Promotional Copy '' stage ? This is confusing as I have seen a red label stock copy on the
net.

Thoughts?

Thanks for the links; I don't think I was previously aware that Smile started as a four piece Group. I've only read part of the article in the top link so far, but in it, Brian states that the Earth single was released in America but 'sold zero'. I have the Ghost of a Smile CD and in it it's stated that the Mercury single stalled at the promotional stage (of 'release'). So I guess it's another 'Queen (or Queen-related) mystery' as to whether or not the single was ever actually released.
