Queen Live

Queen announced the release of a new live album with Adam Lambert, titled “Live Around The World”.

After the release of “You Are The Champions”, whose proceeds were offered to the World Health Organization, this is the first official album release of the band with “American Idol” finalist, who first performed with Brian May and Roger Taylor in the popular American show.

The album features highlights from more than 200 of the band’s shows in Brazil, Great Britain, Japan, Australia, and will be available in CD, CD+DVD, CD+Blu-ray and vinyl versions, with the DVD and Blu-ray featuring extra performance footage which include a Roger Taylor “Drum Battle” with drummer son Rufus Taylor, and Brian May “Last Horizon” guitar solo.

“We hadn’t really watched those clips before; we were always too busy touring,” says Taylor. “We weren’t aware of how good the band sounded. So we thought, well, maybe there’s a live album of highlights of concerts that we’ve done over the last eight years with Adam Lambert to be made.”

“As we all grapple with the challenge of creating live shows in a world dominated by a formidable viral enemy, it seemed the perfect time for us to create a collection of hand-picked live highlights from our Queen shows over the last seven years with our brother Adam Lambert.

“It’s a first! As you watch and listen to these tracks you’ll be journeying all around the world with us, and experiencing a complete virtual live set. The collection climaxes in Sydney earlier this year when, in support Fire Fight Australia, we recreated the complete Queen Live Aid set. It was a historic event for a great cause — with perhaps the highest adrenaline level since the original Live Aid in 1985. It makes me particularly happy that we can now share this unique moment with the whole world.”
