HERE

In recent years, Dutch master ROBBY VALENTINE has been done an amazing Queen Tribute Show with a great full-band performance and at the same time recorded his own studio versions of these timeless songs. Because his first two Queen tribute albums ‘A tribute to Queen 1’ (2011) en ‘A Tribute to Queen 2’ (2012) are sold out, Valentine has decided to combine them together with 5 brand-new recorded songs into his ultimate Queen tribute record: “The Queen Album“.

Apart from his incredible take on Queen hits like “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “We Will Rock You” or “We Are The Champions”, Robby offers a set that has not only covered the classic songs, but also some lesser known gems from the Queen catalog.

“The Queen Album” also features new, 2014 versions of “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” and “Dear Friend”, plus 5 previously unreleased tracks not present on the Tribute CD’s (check the tracklist below).

All the covers on “The Queen Album” have been meticulously crafted to recreate Queen’s unique sound, showing that Robby Valentine not only got a real knowledge of these compositions, he also nails the essence, the spirit from how these songs were created.

On “The Queen Album” he has again played and recorded all instruments himself, as done all vocals. All arrangements have been recorded in full detail, thus succeeding in delivering the perfect Queen sound.
Indeed, all versions are faithful to the originals, except the quite modern take on “We Will Rock You” akin Def Leppard.
