GRAPEVINE, Page 13Next Gig: A Duet with Elvis
By DAVID ELLIS
Lead singer FREDDIE MERCURY died of AIDS last November,
but record sales of his rock group Queen are still going
strong. A reissue of the band's quirky 1975 single Bohemian
Rhapsody (currently featured in the hit movie Wayne's World) is
a best seller in both the U.S. and Britain, while three of
Queen's old albums are now on the Billboard oldies chart. This
week many of the singer's rock cohorts will gather at London's
Wembley Stadium for "A Concert for Life," which will be
televised worldwide to benefit AIDS research. One of the people
who anticipated the huge resurgence in Queen's popularity was
Mercury himself, who is said to have recorded enough new
material with band mates before his death to fill three albums.
