Freddie Mercury    1946-1991

born Frederick Bulsara

lead singer

of the hard-rock group Queen

(...)

As the lead singer and lyricist for Queen,

Mr. Mercury helped to forge a hugely popular

hybrid of hard-rock, pop,

heavy-metal,cabaret and a hint of opera.

In its mid-1970's heyday,

the group created an image of playful decadence

while fabricating elaborate studio productions

on its albums,

overdubbing multiple guitar and vocal lines.

Mr. Mercury strutted and preened,

by turns campy and almost militaristic,

at the center of Queen's stage shows.
