I miei anni con Freddie Mercury di Jim Hutton

Freddie Mercury è stato per vent'anni un protagonista assoluto della scena rock: leader dei Queen ma anche solista di successo, ha scalato le hit parade mondiali. 

Ma quale verità si celava dietro la scintillante facciata della fama, della ricchezza, della trasgressione? Chi era, in realtà, Freddie Mercury?

Mercury and Me di Jim Hutton e Tim Wapshott

With a new introduction by Jim Hutton’s co-writer Tim Wapshott, Mercury and Me is the story of rock’s oddest couple. 

The relationship between Freddie Mercury and Jim Hutton evolved over several months in 1984 and 1985. Even when they first slept together Hutton had no idea who Mercury was, and when the star told him his name it meant nothing to him. Hutton worked as a barber at the Savoy Hotel and retained his job and his lodgings in Sutton, Surrey, for two years before moving in with Mercury, and then worked as his gardener.
