Freddie Mercury (born Frederick Bulsara)    1946-1991

 

lead singer

of the hard-rock group

Queen

 

(...)

 

As the lead singer

and lyricist for Queen,

Mr. Mercury

helped to forge

a hugely popular hybrid

of hard-rock, pop,

heavy-metal,

cabaret

and a hint of opera.

 

In its mid-1970's

heyday,

the group created

an image

of playful decadence

while fabricating elaborate

studio productions

on its albums,

overdubbing

multiple guitar

and vocal lines.

 

Mr. Mercury

strutted and preened,

by turns campy

and almost militaristic,

at the center of Queen's

stage shows.
