This is a great introduction to Collin’s career however having read his autobiography, it’s very sanitised for an age appropriate audience and doesn’t go into a lot of detail.

How can this man not be in the Rock n Roll hHall of Fame, as a solo artist, with the monumental success he’s had? A superior talent. Undervalued - a true icon.

This is good. But it’s not correct to state that Jim Hutton was with Mercury when he died. He wasn’t. He later openly admitted this. The only person with him was Dave Clark. Get things right!
