FINALLY SOME GOOD MUSIC IS COMIN BACK

*********************************************

Legendary British rock band Queen are back in full studio recording sessions for the first time since their iconic frontman Freddie Mercury died in 1991, the group's guitarist Brian May said.

The 59-year-old told AFP that he and Queen drummer Roger Taylor had joined forces with former Free vocalist Paul Rodgers and had already worked up a handful of new tracks.

The trio toured Europe and Japan in 2005 and North America earlier this year in what was the first Queen tour since 1986.

Former astronomy student May has been busy with his new book about space entitled "Bang! The Complete History of the Universe", but insisted he had not swapped the plectrum for the pen permanently.

"The music is not on hold," the guitar legend said.

"We have about three weeks booked in the studio at the moment. It was going to be just exploratory to see what happened when Paul and Roger and I were in the same room with a recording machine.

"But we're already deep into it and we already have some very good material so I'm pretty excited about that: it's very new, very different," he promised.

"There may be enough there to create an album, though it's early days yet. At the moment it's just a few tracks but we'll see how it goes. It's pretty exciting."

And despite the lack of a new Queen album since "Made in Heaven" in 1995 -- painstakingly created with scraps of vocals left by Mercury -- May insisted the pressure was off and the focus was on fun.

"It's great to do it for its own sake, it doesn't have to be an album, it doesn't have to be anything; it doesn't have to make money either.

"We don't really have anything to prove but we have a lot of passion still in our bodies and it seems to be finding a good place at the moment."

May and Taylor have occasionally been in the studio together since Mercury died -- bassist John Deacon retired in the late 1990s -- but this is the first time they have had a lengthy recording session working on new material.

And May said the Queen plus Paul Rodgers show could hit the stage again.

"It's on the cards: we might do some more touring depending on how we feel," he said.

May wrote on his website that the trio were back in the studio Wednesday to work on more new tracks.

He said the songs were "epic" and a diversion from anything Queen or Rodgers had done before.
