Freddie Mercury: Rare Stories Told by His Close Friends

🎙️ What was it like to be in the room when Freddie Mercury met opera legend Montserrat Caballé for the first time? Or to record “The Great Pretender” with him… in your own living room? In this emotional and deeply personal episode, Rob Cass reunites two of Freddie’s closest collaborators — Mike Moran and Peter “Phoebe” Freestone — for a rare conversation about the real Freddie: the friend, the genius, and the man behind the legend. 🎹🎤


Mike Moran, who co-wrote and produced the Barcelona album with Freddie Mercury, returns for Part Two of his interview (📺 watch Part One: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3E9us3nekfEKb8DuUI11jj?si=c513d5f6f2ce4dcb), now joined by Peter Freestone, Freddie’s long-time personal assistant and friend (📺 check out our earlier solo episode with Peter: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6V6vsjWBXWhwsdrx4DVIGp?si=dd25e0bb45594f35). Together, they share honest, touching and often hilarious memories — from studio stories and backstage antics to the emotional weight of Freddie’s final years, including his last live performance. 🕊️


You’ll hear first-hand how Barcelona came to life, what Montserrat Caballé really thought of Freddie, and the unforgettable garden parties at his Kensington home. There are no myths here — just beautiful storytelling from the people who were there. If you're a fan of Queen, Freddie, or timeless music history, this episode will stay with you. ❤️‍🔥
