Hi Andy,

Queens exposure in America certainly was poor relative to europe, south
america and the far east.

The 86' tour was amazing. They certainly matured as rock musicians, but
I don't think that this was the best era. '76-'82 for me. Europe in the
late 70's and south america in the early 80's - untouchable.

What I find quite astonishing is that I see so many people on this
mailbase loving quality bands as well as zep, but nothing of Queen. Is
that due the American influence? Is it because of the generic perception
of Queen?

Nevermind. I'm gonna go home now and watch JB play moby dick.

Pure class.
