Listening to him describe how Bohemian Rhapsody was recorded is hilarious. RIP Roy. Hope you found the Lord before you died.

I am not sure, but I believe Roy’s wife Tere was the woman who played Robert Duvall’s wife in the Godfather movies.

Lake Havasu’s a fun, wacky place.

It amazes me the long life many of these drug-takin’ musicians lived.

Heard that on SXM Classic Vinyl right about the time this was posted.

Some of those bands make up for the horror of foisting Journey and Foreigner on us

The Cars debut album is a perfect album. All the songs are sequenced perfectly, especially Side Two. You have to play side two in its entirety, much like Side Two of Abbey Road.

Worthless trivia: First time I heard Bohemian Rhapsody was in early high school days in 1973, downtown Detroit. It was a ghetto area where the riots were, the local Masonic Temple. Maybe the place was 1/3 full (guessing 1500 people) and the stage and lighting was something you’d see in college concert at best. We heard “Killer Queen” on local radio at the time and was way different than Alice Cooper and Bob Seger who were both locals at the time.

On the encore we saw/heard “Bohemian Rhapsody” for the first time months before the Night At The Opera was released, little did we know...

Baker first saw The Cars after being tipped by a rep at Elektra Records to see them perform in a Boston school gymnasium. It was during a blizzard and only 8 people showed up to see the band. Baker loved it, and committed to produce four albums. All 4 albums were certified platinum and the Cars were Grammy-nominated.
