‘Queen As It Began’ is available to pre-order now.
The new year could also mean more new music from Queen, as Brian and Roger have been in the studio with Adam Lambert – who stepped into Freddie’s shoes for Queen’s live shows – to work on tracks.
“Adam, Roger and myself have been in the studio trying things out,” Brian shared. “So it’s not like we’re closed to the idea, it’s just that it hasn’t happened yet.”
