This big-size amazing (yes, I'm AMAZED! I've never thought that he appeared on such a front page like this...!) photo was from an American magazine "DISC", Dec. 21, 1974.

QUEEN'S JOHN DEACON: SUTTERBUG AT LARGE
"It all started when we wanted some unusual shots to illustrate our 'Queen on the road' feature -- unposed, candid shots. But who could take them? After all, Queen were in Germany. Then the answer came to us like a flash! John Deacon is the name of our photographer -- and he also happens to play a nice line in bass for the very group in question..."

...That's Great.
The content of this article is a report of their German tour by Rosemary Horide. (I omit it, because there's few description about John.)

Here are the pix taken by John himself.

I don't know whether these comments of pix are also John's words or not. But...it's very funny.

Then, the last one. Do you recognise this...?
who's ass? To whom does this belong?

Well, my friends say this is Roger. What do you think?
