On the 75th anniversary of Freddie Mercury’s birth, we celebrate the man and his music.

Queen’s legendary guitarist Brian May guides Johnnie through their greatest hits.

You’ll hear stories, anecdotes and memories about every one of the band’s UK Top 10 hits during the Seventies, and we'll play them all in full, in chronological order. Plus Brian will be explaining why the time was right for him to now reissue his solo work, beginning with 1992’s Back To The Light album, which was inspired by Freddie’s passing the previous year.
