PhotographerNeal PrestonaboutFreddie Mercury
“The guy was so flamboyant, he was such a great photographic subject. But inevitably he explains how words always seem to fall short when it comes to the incomparable lead singer, he says that the spandex catsuit-clad front man lived and breathed the same persona he brought to the stage. As I like to say, no one on the face of this earth loved being Freddie Mercury, as much as Freddie Mercury did.’
‘I have a little saying that there are three people in the record business that if you can’t get a great onstage picture of one of these three people, then quit your job immediately, sell your cameras and go work for the sanitation department, and those three people in no specific order are Freddie Mercury, Pete Townsend and Jimmy Page.'

Photographer Neal Preston said that one of his fondest moments was taking Brian May to meet his parents. ‘I will never forget, Brian May all six-foot-a thousand of him sitting at my mom’s tiny, tiny, tiny little kitchen table eating scrambled eggs at seven in the morning. He added: 'Until the day she passed away, my mom used to say, 'how’s that lovely boy for that from that group?“

PhotographerNeal Preston said that John Deacon was ‘usually pretty quiet and reserved but all of a sudden, every once in a while he’d come out with a zinger that would just cut everyone down.’

“Freddie Mercury and I both loved to have a laugh on tour. If there were shenanigans and good times, Fred and I would be there.”
