Sex Pistols‘ 1976 expletive-filled interview on The Today Show with Bill Grundy, which remains steeped in notoriety.It was at EMI that Hall first met Queen‘s Freddie Mercury, claiming in later years that the band’s 1974 hit ‘Killer Queen’ was written about him.Hall, who was born in Bethnal Green in 1947, also worked as Elton John‘s tea boy in his formative years and went on to promote the likes of Frank Sinatra, Queen and T-Rex.RIP Eric Hall, PR to T Rex, Queen and the Sex Pistols, and the first high profile football agent.
