Blue Hour Ghosts & Shining’s Jørgen Munkeby Honour Freddie Mercury
Written by Johnson Stephen on November 25, 2021
Blue Hour Ghosts have released a powerful and classy cover of the dark and experimental Queen masterpiece ‘I’m Going Slightly Mad’. It features a guest appearance of the talented multi-instrumentalist Jørgen Munkeby of Shining on saxophone.
The cover song is meant to honor the great Freddie Mercury on the 30th anniversary of his passing-November 24, 1991.
The band comments “Queen has always been a major influence for all of us and fully embody the spirit with which we make music:no boundaries, no clichés, total freedom, eclectic and elegant, while keeping themselves extremely effective, enjoyable and accessible. We wanted to honor the 30th anniversary of Freddie’s passing with something special, so we dared to give our take on one of the darkest, most sophisticated and enigmatic songs of Queen’s discography. We were joined in this endeavor by none less than the great Jørgen Munkeby of Shining, who graced the song with a stellar performance on saxophone. Our producer Giuseppe Bassi helped us give the track its unique, twisted and modern feel. We hope that all of our fans and all Queen fans all over the world will enjoy our tribute to the One and Only.”
