Joint tour Queen + Adam Lambert = unforgotten old in a new way
JULY 28, 2014 | LYRICIST: JULIA WELCOMES



In the second month of continued joint tour Queen (Brian May and Roger Taylor) and Adam Lambert in the United States and Canada, with additional statements bonus performances in Australia, Japan and Korea. One to represent, of course, is not necessary. Route tour is also clear: North America - the popular American Adam Lambert, Japan and Korea - a long-standing admirers Queen . And Australia - well, let him finally on their street will be a holiday.
From the point of view of the ordinary followers of music news this event - not so surprising. Veterans of rock music often combined after many years, and even the end of the quarry. Going on tour, alter line-up (after some original members are dead, alas), releasing new albums with reworked or miraculously discovered records of the best times.
From the point of view of different kinds of critics and music press, looking for a little deeper than the top layer of the cultural news - is the subject of the dispute. While rejecting the sentimental moments, they meticulously scrutinize - and whether there is a creative value of these veterans resurrections? If they would do something really new? What surprise? What is the ratio of "creative impulse / making money on past glory"?
But in the camp of fans and loyal fans such alliances (and even just comeback idols, without the "newcomers") call the real storm.



So in our case (your humble servant knows the mood inside) - part of fandom Queen painful transfers cooperation Lambert May and Taylor, seeing it as an attempt to replace our dear Freddie Mercury. That, of course, wrong and absurd, because simply not true. Another part of the fans relates to what is happening with the understanding, although Adam's candidacy as a "herald" the songs of their favorite band, too, not all of them unconditionally happy. Successfully "testing the" Lambert in a mini-tour in 2012, Quinn came to the conclusion that it is possible to go a little further. But the controversy did not die down - the correctness of the use of the name " Queen ", about the appropriateness of interventions without John Deacon, the" moral character "and so on vocals. d. should be noted that the answers to these questions are known and announced by the heroes of the day - well, it is appropriate, legally justified.
We must pay tribute to the courage of career choice Adam Lambert. For the majority of contemporary artists such associations unthinkable. Okay more duets sung together once or twice, and fled, but this! No one has to "steal" their glory. So desperately bold move American artist Lambert - suicide by the standards of the American as show business - is more respect than all the bright duets last times together. More interesting to follow his career in the future. "The Queen", though not at full strength, but in the face of May and Taylor also got her satisfaction - even with the help of a daring American singer. She never complained about their America, to ignore them so demonstratively, the louder was their world fame - poker face changed to a simple smile.
So, the picture of the day is this: the audience take their heat. Press very supportive. Hits Queen still sing along. It turns out nobody for nothing. Especially Australia.



But there is in this collaboration is something really remarkable. The fact that almost all overlooked. Fleeting shadow may have seemed almost real (but impractical - we know it) chance of a supergroup. Not a goal, but a vision.
(Supergroup as a term - a rare event in the music industry in general - the union has already held performers in a brand new team. Most striking example - Traveling Wilburys . More Cream, The Firm, Asia, Bad Company , Emerson, Lake & Palmer , David Bowie as vocalist Tin Machine ).
Of course, the glory of Queen disproportionately glory Lambert, so it is unlikely supergroup could take place in the full sense of the word. And of course a problem is likely not. Adam Lambert just takes their songs, shared musical material not written any joint album no - that is, there is the main condition - new creative material. But some of the conditions were. Just a hint, but it is beautiful.
