That's odd, then why does it say on the Sheer Heart Attack sleeve that Stone Cold crazy was written by Freddie and Brian?

They also played Voodoo Chile

31.01.2005 04:24		 Can their version of Imagine be downloaded from somewhere? Was it ever recorded somehow, or just the live version?

I think whats probably happened there is it was written and performed by wreckage in 1969 and then rewritten with completely differnt lyrics by Freddie and Brian. I'm not too sure though.

Never claimed it's mine. What else should I do? Tell the person who wants to know what songs did they play to buy a book?

02.02.2005 07:18		 Interesting fact about Not Fade Away......if I remember my obscure facts right, that song was Rush's first single.....another band I love.....wel I love both Rush and The Rolling Stones who also covered that song famously....now theres an interesting aside........I always thought that I would have loved to hear QUeen cover a Rush song, or vice versa

They didn't perform it WITH Led Zeppelin... They played it in Berlin in 1986- Bonham was already dead for few years...
