Queen plans for unreleased Freddie material may lead to full album
Queen guitarist Brian May affirmed that the band takes in consideration the chance to make a full album from unreleased tracks featuring the legendary Freddie Mercury.
The band released new music with Freddie in 1995, when the singer's final recordings were paired up with archive tracks and restructured versions of his solo songs for the album „Made In Heaven”.
Brian May told iHeart Radio: "We thought we'd exhausted everything that was around and could be worked on, but since then a number of things have come to light from various sources that we'd just plain forgotten about, including the stuff with Freddie and Michael Jackson."
"Just a couple of weeks ago, we thought: Maybe we shouldn't be just working on bits and pieces? Maybe we should be heading towards an album? It just might be."
Unreleased songs from Queen’s have been leaked over the years, in various states of completion.
In ther archives can be found old materials with David Bowie, Andy Gibb and Rod Stewart, but also a collaboration with Michael Jackson, Victory, which can be included in this project.
Queen's released their last studio album, „The Cosmos Rocks” with Paul Rodgers in 2008, and they will play at the iHeart Music Festival this year in Las Vegas alongside Adam Lambert and special guests on September 20th and 21st.
