Notes:

Philip 'Spike' Edney (born 11 December 1951) is a British musician who has appeared as part of numerous bands. His most notable collaboration has been with Queen since 1984, to the extent that he has sometimes been described as the fifth member of Queen.

In 1994, he formed the SAS Band (Spike's All Stars), a group with a constantly fluctuating personnel sometimes but not always including musicians from Queen, Whitesnake, Free, Roxy Music, Toto, Spandau Ballet and solo artists including Fish, Roy Wood, Leo Sayer, Kiki Dee and Paul Young.

As the late Freddie Mercury was Queen's primary pianist, he took over Mercury's role as such during Queen + Paul Rodgers 2005, 2006 and 2008 tours, playing all piano parts on a Korg Triton keyboard, in addition to all other keyboard parts. During the 2005/2006 tour, he was often referred to as "The Wizard" by Roger Taylor. He has also been the keyboardist for the London production of We Will Rock You since it opened in 2002.
