Well, this is exciting news! Queen + Adam Lambert Live Around the World features the top twenty favorite performances selected by the band themselves.
Live Around The World will feature tracks that were personally selected by Roger Taylor, Adam Lambert, and guitarist Brian May from more than 200 performances, and will include Freddie Mercury’s iconic “Ay-Ohs” section.
After looking back at their YouTube Watch Party from June, which featured highlights from their previous tours, that they decided to put together the clips in one place for their fans to view at their leisure.
Drummer Roger Taylor explained: “We hadn't really watched those clips before, we were always too busy touring. We weren't aware of how good the band sounded. So we thought, well, maybe there's a live album of highlights of concerts that we've done over the last eight years with Adam Lambert to be made.”
Guitarist Brian May said: “As we all grapple with the challenge of creating live shows in a world dominated by a formidable viral enemy, it seemed the perfect time for us to create a collection of hand-picked live highlights from our Queen shows over the last seven years with our brother Adam Lambert.”
“It's a first! As you watch and listen to these tracks you'll be journeying all around the world with us, and experiencing a complete virtual live set. The collection climaxes in Sydney earlier this year when, in support Fire Fight Australia, we recreated the complete Queen Live Aid set. It was a historic event for a great cause – with perhaps the highest adrenaline level since the original Live Aid in 1985. It makes me particularly happy that we can now share this unique moment with the whole world.”

Lambert added: “When we couldn't tour this year we wanted to give the fans something in place of that, and a Live album just felt right. It's the first time we have released an album together and we have had a lot of fun putting it together, picking out favorite performances over the past seven years.”
