Me with engineer Dave Jacobs at work on 'We Wanna be Famous'

To find out what right I had to spend three days impersonating a record producer in Advision studios at an hourly rate (in 1988!) of £160, check out the 'punks' photo.

We over-ran, of course, and had to beg half a day off Freddy Mercury, who was next in. Talk about bitch.

(Dave told me that Queen usually spent the first two days of a session getting the right bass drum sound)
