~ THE RHAPSODY WORLD TOUR 2022 ~

 

 (The Rhapsody Tour is a worldwide concert tour by British rock band Queen and American singer Adam Lambert. The tour was announced following the success of the biopic film Bohemian Rhapsody.)

 

 Live Around the World is the second (first internationally) live album by collaboration between the active members of the British band Queen (Brian May and Roger Taylor) and American vocalist Adam Lambert, released on October 2, 2020. It is a compilation of songs performed at various shows between June 2014 and February 2020. Producer Roger Taylor - Brian May - Adam Lambert - Justin Shirley-Smith - Joshua J Macrae - Kris Fredriksson. This is the first long-term collaboration of Queen since the Queen + Paul Rodgers project ended in 2009. Like the previous project, it was made clear that Lambert would not be replacing Queen frontman Freddie Mercury, but rather that he would be featured with the band's active members.
