많은 뮤지선들 중 프레디 머큐리의 모습.


A wistful-looking Freddie Mercury back stage in Hyde Park, 1976. Danny recalls: 'I had been wandering around backstage... and there he was, in a white boiler suit, being handed a microphone. With minutes to go before the start of the show, I playfully asked, “Who are you?” “Freddie.” He replied cheerfully, seeming to appreciate the cheek of my question. I asked him if I could take a few photos. “Of course you can, dear boy!” was his reply. With a portly stage assistant to my left giving him last-minute instructions, Freddie struck a couple of poses for me, looking like Count Dracula. Surprisingly relaxed, I thought, considering he was due on stage any minute. “Off anywhere nice?” I asked him. He just smiled and pointed upwards to the hole above his head. With that, the sound of Brian May’s guitar rang out and the platform Freddie had been standing on started to levitate, rising straight up and onto the stage for the start of their show. I made my way back to the front of the crowd at speed to capture Freddie, now stripped to a white leotard, in all his camp, charismatic glory. This would be the beginning of my working relationship with Queen'

Freddie Mercury in full throttle, in 1978. Danny said: 'I recently dug out some negatives of shots I took of Freddie Mercury in 1976 that I had never even seen before. So it's impossible to say which pictures are my favourites, as I'd only find some new ones five minutes later and change my mind'
