I have just listened to "Double Fantasy" by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, and a silly thought happened. What if Queen had followed the same path instead of Queen + PR and Queen +AL.
We could have been listening to Queen + AD (Anita Dobson) instead.🤣
Please don`t take it seriously as it`s getting near funny season.

We could easily imagine it, BM + Anita singles are well known... And even Roger used snippet of Sarina's voice in one particular song on his last album, so we're half there!  |

Correct young man. What about "Some Time in New York City" are we counting that has bland or just crap😁 |

Mind Games and POB it ain't. |

Thr official Queen channel have posted a thing about a competition on social media...and they've used Anita Dobson's I Dream of Christmas as the backing music. Sounds like a pretty clean version too, wonder if they've remastered it..?

I agree about a re-release it was a decent album and deserves a update. I used to listen to it quite a lot when it first came out. Sad but true....Nah get it released. |

Again echoing what I’ve said before: Regardless of what anyone might think of it, beyond his solo work and the Kerry Ellis albums it’s probably the most substantial thing Brian’s done outside of Queen (in terms of the scale of his contribution - he plays/sings on most of it and wrote a fair chunk of it). Add to which it’s been out of print for decades and has literally never been available in a digital format. So yeah, I’d love to see it reissued, if only to fill the obvious gap in my collection. |
