1954 Aged 8 he was shipped off to St Peters English boarding school in Panchgani, 50 miles from Bombay where he formed a band called The Hectics 1964 Moved to Feltham, Middlesex 1966 Enrolled Ealing College of Art 1969, after a typically flamboyant audition, Freddie became the lead singer with Sour Milk Sea. The band were to split just two months later. His determination to make something of himself as a performer was so strong that he found he couldn't be without a band for too long, and finally he formed his own band - Wreckage with Richard Thompson as drummer, Mike Bersin and Tupp Taylor from Ibex. A year later that too folded when Freddie, impatient for stardom, left the band. Freddie remained friends with Smile - and when Tim Stafell left the band to try and make a name for himself with Humpy Bong - Freddie took over and joined forces with Brian and Roger. Freddie tragically died on November 24th, 1991 at the age of 45, of AIDS related bronchial pneumonia.
