Nev Pearce of Australia’s “Rabid Noise” podcast recently conductedan interview with QUEENSRŸCHE guitarist Michael Wilton. He was specifically asked if he would ever consider re-recording any of the early QUEENSRŸCHE material with new singer Todd La Torre and here what he had to say on the matter:

“The offers have come, yes, but as of right now, it’s just… If the record company wants that right now, you’ve got licensing issues. Some of the older songs, we have to figure out what control do we have over them. But I would tell you… I mean, in my opinion, I would never re-record a studio album with Todd. If it was a live album, sure — I’d welcome that. I would love, on record, CD, or whatever, the fans to hear Todd singing the old songs, ’cause he’s just badass and he sounds great.”
