Sir Brian wrote on Instagram: “I’ve been a bit mesmerised by this little clip posted by @melina_brianqueen – (thanks – I told you I might have to pinch it !) It stirs so many memories from long-forgotten corners of my mind. A moment in time, in rehearsals for a very early tour, grabbing a sandwich, some orange juice, finding things to smile about, laugh about, think about. You might not recognise … in the red top, John Harris – our very first Queen roadie, a great soul dedicated to his calling – in the off-white top. Big Rich – super guitar tech of his day, poached from Mott the Hoople, but now sadly gone to Heaven. And next to him a young lad who came with him from Mott, universally known as Ratty, who handled Freddie’s microphones, etc.”
The 75-year-old was particularly taken by a shot of the singer on guitar.
