📸 polaroid by Brian May. Roger Taylor and roadie John Harris having a smoke break at Ridge Farm, 1975.
My entry for Queen Rare Pair Weekend day 2, for the prompt "Unlikely friendship". @queenrarepair
More under the cut:
Another "fake photograph" I painted with digital oil colours, this time of Roger and John Harris relaxing on the lawn in front of the guesthouse at Ridge Farm! What a lovely time of Queen history that summer was -- and Harris really did wear these teeny tiny shorts (just have a look of the real photos from Ridge Farm and you'll know what I mean!)
A very loose interpretation of the prompt, again, but maybe you'll forgive me for that, haha. Roger & Harris truly were great friends by all accounts, nothing unlikely about their rapport <3

Quick and awfully rough sketch of the photo with Roger and Harris 💕 I felt like venting a bit through my lines here and not be precise at all, honestly it's been fun and refreshing and I hope you like it even if it's not like my usual style!
Please do not repost! Reblogs and comments are welcomed 💜

55 Years of Maylor
October 13 - 15
🎸One Month To Go🥁
Romantic maylor? Platonic maylor? Enemies to friends to lovers maylor? Maylor friendship as a backdrop to another relationship?Older Maylor reminiscing? Maylor meeting Freddie? Maylor in Smile? Maylor meeting John Harris?
Whatever maylor you’d like to explore, we have the event for you!
👄Day One 13 October
#Maylor55: fifty-five years of the best brothers brothering and bickering like an old married couple, can’t live with him can’t live without him, pair of bandmates ever to band.
Sliding Doors: After the 90s Gwynneth Paltrow movie. It’s such a random coincidence that Les Brown saw Brian’s notice advertising for a drummer and mentioned it to Roger. What if he hadn’t seen the notice? What if he hadn’t mentioned it to Roger? Would the fates still have aligned to bring them together? Or would an astrophysicist and a dentist once have sat randomly side by side in the stands at Live Aid and felt a strange frisson?
O brother where art thou?
First time
“Cast adrift amongst the stars/I float from sun to sun”
“his partner in Edwardian scarves” the Liverpool Echo about Freddie and Roger
🥁Day Two 14 October
#Smiliversary: Fifty-five years since Brian and Tim placed an advert for a ‘Mitch Mitchell-type’ drummer on a noticeboard and Roger blew Brian’s mind by tuning the drums.
Age difference: there are only a few years between Brian and Roger, but the difference between a fresher just up from the provinces and a graduate student from London is massive…
He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother
Second chance
“Yesterday my life was in ruins”
“when you are a prisoner of your own hair” Roger about Brian
🎸Day Three 15 October
#Meetiversary: again it doesn’t look like there is an exact date but Brian and Roger had definitely met Freddie within a few weeks of Roger joining Smile.
Myths and legends: Roger comes from Cornwall, land of Arthurian legend and mischievous pixies. Maybe he really is the Once And Future Drummer, maybe Brian’s imagination runs riot…
Brothers Grimm
Third wish
“To see him as you’d see a star”
“if we truly get our energies aligned, magic happens” Brian about his relationship with Roger
🥁🥁🥁🎸🎸🎸
