I'm in the middle of Peters book An Intimate Memoir. I'm looking for a second one to read after. There is a second book by Peter as well as Huttons book I'm thinking of ordering. Opinions please. |

I read "Mercury and Me" and I really like it. I know that many people have a negative opinion about it, but I think of the book as good. There is nothing insulting in book, this is love story between Freddie and Jim and their common life, first of all. It was fun reading but also very sad, especially a few last chapters. I hope I will read Peter Freestone book soon. |
| RadioDaDa 07.02.2018 11:51 |
Bertus your life as a troll saddens me. Peter Freestones book is the entire duration of him and Freddie’s time together I believe starting is 79’ , I don’t have any other books, hence the forum to see what everyone else likes. My guess is your only interested in trolling rather than books to enjoy so this forum ain’t for you. Fuck off |
| RadioDaDa 07.02.2018 11:53 |
Invisible woman. What’s the reasoning behind the negativity regarding Huttons book? I have seen this around as well and I’m not understanding. |
| Invisible Woman 07.02.2018 12:25 |
^^^I don't know,probably they have some reasons. Maybe someone has not read the book and has a bad opinion about it based on the negative comments of those who read it. Perhaps this book has ruined someone's illusion about Mary as only and eternal Freddie's love. Maybe they expected a book about Queen and Freddie's music, I don't know. I really like this book but I have nothing against those who dislike or have not read it. |
| RadioDaDa 07.02.2018 13:05 |
Invisible woman. Thank you. I plan on getting this book ASAP. Yes I have read the negativity about Mary on here as well. Again I don’t get it. Peter intelligently explained in an interview why they had to leave after those few months. I’m interested in reading this book to hear Jim’s point of view. |
| Bertus 07.02.2018 13:39 |
I hope you will like reading that Freddie cant eat anything and his leg broke in a bathroom |
| Invisible Woman 07.02.2018 14:09 |
I see nothing wrong with the fact that some parts in the book describe how his disease influenced his life. It's a cruel truth. It's nothing degrading about it, the fact is that he was suffering from a very serious illness. After reading this book, I more like Freddie. |
| RadioDaDa 07.02.2018 15:29 |
Invisible woman. This guy has an issue with anything post 1987 with Freddie. It’s quite annoying. We all know he was a rock god. And we all know of his privacy in the later years. I’m interested in it all. |
| Bertus 07.02.2018 16:21 |
RadioDaDa you are so fake.. U much watch this... link link You will love it. shithead, |
| RadioDaDa 07.02.2018 17:35 |
Bertus you bring nothing to queenzone. Maybe try and be creative and start your own forum. Is it too much of a challenge for you?? Is the only thing you can do is critique? Your a typical gutless terd and nothing more |

Bertus, please take your childlike behavior and personality back to the store (mommy) and tell her to get you past the age of 12. If you are physically over that age, demand compensation for the lack of development over the years. |

While i enjoy reading most books on Freddie there are the odd one or two which tell lots of lies like the author Laura Jackson who claimed to have known Freddie personally and so for that i have avoided her books like the plague. Peter Hince had a book out a while ago and it was brilliant. |
| RadioDaDa 12.02.2018 21:10 |
Hey happy star. I’m coming to the end of Peter Fresstones first book. I have Jim Huttons on the way. From what I’ve been reading here on the forume, there are many different opinions some positive and some negative about many of them. Just curious what lies did she tell in the book? |
| beemack74 16.02.2018 15:42 |
I've always enjoyed Jims book, I bought it as soon as it was released in early 1995. Peter's book is another favourite, I like how he goes into detail about the tours, and gives insight into the recording of each album etc. First Freddie /Queen book I ever got was "The Show Must Go On" by Rick Sky in early 1992. Sky seems to want to give the impression that he and Freddie were great mates, even though I doubt Freddie even knew his name. Sky features an entire chapter on the Barbara Valentin tripe, and when writing about Queens Live Aid performance, lists the songs in the order they appeared in the Elton John tribute documentary. So a quick cash grab after Freddie's death, basically. |
| RadioDaDa 16.02.2018 16:49 |
Beemack - thanks for the comment. In the book the “show must go on” did the author write about an interview he did with Barbara or was it just things we already know? |
| beemack74 16.02.2018 18:16 |
RadioDaDa, from the way in which he writes, I have get the impression that he conducted interviews with Valentin, Rhienhold Mack, and others. Sky was a tabloid hack who had a music column in a British paper, IIRC it was the Dailly Mirror. He did brief interviews with Freddie and the band on occasion, but in the book he makes statements such as "as Freddie once told me" and "during one of my conversations with Freddie" as if he was Freddie's great pal when in actual fact he probably plonked himself down and shoved a microphone in Freddie's face. |
| RadioDaDa 16.02.2018 18:25 |
Got ya |
| beemack74 16.02.2018 18:58 |
It's basically the same yawn-fest that she repeated like a mantra, "Freddie and I were lovers blah blah blah", I agree that I always take anything said in the press with a pinch of salt, but for some reason I've always had a problem believing anything that Valentin said. Having read books by Jim and Peter, the Freddie she talks about, during the same period of time, sounds like a different person. Maybe I'm wrong, but I always get the impression that she is indeed "embellishing" stories somewhat. |
| RadioDaDa 16.02.2018 19:24 |
Beemack- she may be leading on more than what is true. But I also believe that after a wild night of drinking and partying in Munich that anything could have happened behind closed doors. |
