Freddie made every song he did an EVENT. Triple threat. Expressive singer with great pitch and a smooth falsetto, guitar chops as strong as any of The Kings, and one hell of an entertainer and party starter. In my view, his original recording of "Have You Ever Loved a Woman?" is the definitive version. His octave jumps into falsetto still brings chills.

Legendary player, iconic song, great performance and killer go-go dancer. Love the Peter Gunn riff tossed in there. BTW, did a little googling and learned this is from a short-lived TV show called The!!! Beat. Yeah, three exclamation points after the word "the". Hosted by DJ Bill "Hoss" Allen, it featured a ton of great blues and R n B artists. Clarence Gatemouth Brown was the house band leader. It's apparently available on DVD, seems worth checking into...
