Singular event ! For this second Freddie Mercury's Montreux Memorial Day edition, montreuxmusic has set up a workshop gathering David Richards, Peter Freestone and the Dutch Queen coverband Miracle. David explained to the audience many interesting anecdotes and David Bowies’s meeting with Queen, early in the morning at Mountain Studios and how the song "Under Pressure" was put together. David played the keyboards on that song. Did you know ? Well he proved it that evening !
