Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson duets streaming online
Earlier this week, Brian May revealed that three tracks that Freddie Mercury recorded with Michael Jackson thirty years ago are to finally surface later this year. He obviously doesn’t know how to use Youtube, as two of the tracks have already been airing online for many years.
The material was recorded at a single session back in 1983, with the Queen guitarist revealing to The Times that no further collaboration between the two progressed after more studio time could not be secured.
The encounter was far from easy, however, with Mercury reportedly unhappy when Jackson (wait for it…) brough a llama to the studio.
May has revealed that there will be ”something for folks to hear” (we assume he means “buy”) within the next two months.
