Remembering Freddie

Today, Queen fans everywhere, are remembering Freddie Mercury, their lead singer.

He was born on September 5, 1946 as Farrokh Bulsara in Zanzibar. He, of course, eventually changed his name to Freddie Mercury.

Queen got together as a group in 1971 and released their first album in 1973, simply titled 'QUEEN'. They were one of the greatest rock groups in history, in my opinion and their songs have been loved by millions over the years.

Sadly, Freddie died on this date in 1991. Queen has gone on, now with Paul Rogers, but there will never be anyone else like Freddie Mercury. He was a true original.

We miss you, Freddie. Rest in Peace.
