ROGER TAYLOR – Outsider

CD
(Digisleeve with 16 Page Booklet.)

Outsider is the latest solo album from rock legend Queen’s Roger Taylor. With much of Outsider recorded during lockdown, this new album finds Taylor in reflective mood. Across the record he conveys a palpable sense of seclusion, concerns over the passing of time, and tellingly, dedicates it “to all the outsiders, those who feel left on the sidelines”. A highly personal project, Outsider’s instrumentation is almost entirely performed by Taylor, with his largely restrained vocals matching the album’s contemplative ambience. But Taylor does cut loose along the way with a foray into some hard-riffing blues-rock as well as an adrenalin charged big surprise retread of a classic 1965 novelty song, which is exactly the fun on earth we need in these challenging times.
