Brian May trabaja en un disco con temas inéditos de Queen
Brian May comentó que Queen piensa lanzar un nuevo álbum que incluiría canciones inéditas con la voz del legendario Freddie Mercury.
"Ahí hay más de lo que pensábamos, en el archivo de Queen. Hemos encontrado algunas voces de Freddie, algunas maquetas", declaró May para Efe, "encontramos un grabación analógica de 24 pistas de Freddie cantando algo que nunca se terminó, lo primero que hacemos es transferirla en el dominio digital".
El guitarrista comentó que está haciendo música nueva para los temas. "Así que en este momento estamos trabajando en hacer algo de música nueva en torno a ellas, que es lo que hicimos para el álbum 'Made in Heaven' (1995), que es posiblemente el mejor álbum de Queen que hayamos hecho nunca".
Hace unas semanas, Roger Taylor declaró que la banda ha estado trabajando en un par de tracks que Freddie Mercury grabó con Michael Jackson.
Queen discover more unreleased Freddie Mercury material
Queen guitarist Brian May has revealed the band have discovered more unreleased Freddie Mercury material in their vaults.
"There's more in there than we thought, in the Queen source archive," May recently told Mojo magazine via The Guardian. "I'm a little nervous of saying there's an album there, but there's certainly a few tracks ... We've found some Freddie vocals, some demos."
The guitarist compared the project to Queen's 1995 album “Made In Heaven”, released four years after Mercury's death due to complications from AIDS. As with those tracks, Queen are taking Mercury's unused takes, cleaning them up, and adding original music. "If we find an analogue 24-track of Freddie singing something that never got finished, the first thing we do is ... make [a digital] copy at the highest resolution you can," May said. "Then we start weaving our tapestry."
The latest news follows confirmation by May, this past summer, that three duets recorded by Mercury and Michael Jackson will see the light of day. The demos were recorded in 1983 at Jackson's home studio, but a larger project never came to fruition due to the singers' conflicting schedules.
Queen recently released a limited-edition 6 DVD box set that features four concerts, including “Live At Wembley Stadium – 25th Anniversary Edition”, “Queen Rock Montreal”, “On Fire: Live At The Bowl”, and “Live In Rio.”
