michael jackson’s duets with freddie mercury to be released this fall?

July 29, 2013

UK media outlet The Times reports: “Duets between Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury will be released officially in time for the autumn after a wait of three decades, Mercury’s bandmates
have declared. Brian May and Roger Taylor, the guitarist and drummer who played with Mercury in Queen, promised “something for folks to hear” in two months. The two singers recorded three tracks at Jackson’s home studio in Encino, California, in 1983, but a project to release them foundered because the pair were unable to arrange a second session.”
Mercury’s manager Jim “Miami” Beach said in an interview. “They got on well except for the fact that I suddenly got a call from Freddie, saying, ‘Miami, dear, can you get on over here… You’ve got to get me out of here. I’m recording with a llama… I’ve had enough and I want to get out.”
