New Queen Album - The Cosmos Rocks

[quark1]

Have just spent some of by Am*z*n vouchers and amongst my purchases bought the latest Queen Album.

As far as I know its all new or unpublished material - its absolutely great!

Can hear bits of Quo, Lennon and original era Freddie in there - as well as some wonderful new sounds and some very powerful lyrics which bring both a tear to the eye and remind of human failings. Well they were always good and still are.

I bought the version which also contains a dvd of a concert in Japan 2005 which I think must have been during their last tour with Paul Rogers. My son was lucky enough to see them in London that time round.

An inspired choice of vocalist, to not replace Freddie, but to move the group onto a new era - what a shame John Deacon could not find it the right time/thing to join them - still you never know.

Anyone else got this yet? If so what do you think?

Having been a fan of Free and Bad company for many years I can honestly say that I could not think of a better vocalist to join the group than Paul Rodgers. Granted his vocals are different to the Great Freddie but I think he adds a different dimension to the 'Queen' sound.
Having heard a little of what they have done and been impressed by it I think I should invest some of my hard earned pennies into this new album.
