The early 70's I was in middle school, but as stated before I lived in small area that listened to the local radio station that was 10-15 years behind on Country hits. I've since heard of Queen and Freddie Mercury but hadn't really thought about what kind of music they made.<br />I come form a bluegrass/country musician family. Not me. I played the clarinet and can't sing a note. Other than bandstand on Saturdays I wasn't around any other music.Paty Jagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03257614436422105729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-19599830301074636082010-12-20T09:22:43.836-08:002010-12-20T09:22:43.836-08:00wow you must be really young!

I think it was the overall scruffiness of the photo that did it for me.

But the initial photo is what I wanted, and I know Sam and Tom have great mustaches and are great western hero icons, but the photos I looked up of them didn't figure into the hero I had conjured up in my head.Paty Jagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03257614436422105729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-10766035460774004042010-12-20T08:19:22.800-08:002010-12-20T08:19:22.800-08:00LOL Keena, After the initial that's the pic.. ...LOL Keena, After the initial that's the pic.. and I researched I had to forget what I learned about him other than I did really like his voice.

I recently read that Sacha Baron Cohen might play him (with the rest of Queen's permission) in an upcoming movie.<br /><br />I never associate him with historicals, but that mustache might make me rethink the western hero thing.Isabel Romanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05143812677263412322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-12649832467019876402010-12-20T08:12:58.876-08:002010-12-20T08:12:58.876-08:00Hello, Paty.

I tend to like covers where the H/H's faces aren't visible-- bodies, yes, faces, no.<br />Freddie does have a great mustache.<br />Sam Shepard and Tom Selleck have great mustaches too.<br />Cheers, Kelly<br />marwhitpinky12@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-356514202091308762010-12-20T08:00:18.511-08:002010-12-20T08:00:18.511-08:00Paty,

I, too, typically look for photos to describe my characters--not always actors, but sometimes. <br /><br />Freddie Mercury definitely has a great mustache. He had a fabulous voice, too. There's a recording of him singing opera. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPx26zj16t0Keena Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15985958126062809043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-89241833961049331812010-12-20T07:53:16.279-08:002010-12-20T07:53:16.279-08:00Paty

I tend think of him as more Scifi / Fantasy than historical but that's because Queen did sound tracks for Flash Gordan and Highlander.<br /><br />He is an interesting fellow.Beth Caudillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07822034586213938181noreply@blogger.com
