From the publisher: “We're almost unspeakably excited about announcing the publication of both Robyn Dunford’s Bohemian Rhapsodies and Jeb Wright's Classic Rock Revisited Interviews Anthology. Robyn has put every ounce of passion Queen would expect from its fans into the preparation of a wildly-entertaining and revealing collection of first-hand stories told from both Queen fans as well as rock star peers of Freddie's. To have the official blessing of Queen's management, and to have the opportunity to

donate a portion of the royalties from this book to the charity Queen set up in Freddie Mercury’s memory, the Mercury Phoenix Trust – Fighting AIDS Worldwide www.mercuryphoenixtrust.com makes being involved with the release of this book that much more of an honor. We intend this book to be a true and honest tribute to Freddie Mercury's singular legacy, and to that end, we will release this title on the 20th anniversary of his passing on November 24th, 2011.

On another equally-as-exciting front, our staff here are all fans of Jeb's site, Classic Rock Revisited, which has built a solid reputation as one of the leading interview sites for Rock and Metal’s A-List stars over the past decade. The opportunity to partner with him on the publication of an anthology of his Headlining interview series with the biggest names in the business will make GREAT reading for fans worldwide across every sub-genre of rock and metal! Please check back at www.rocknrollbooks.com in the coming months for more announcements regarding both of these exciting titles and Happy New Year!’
