Roger Taylor - Rock'n'Roll + Heroes (Live at Manchester Academy, 03 October 2021)

Two last songs from Roger's gig at Manchester Academy.
"Rock'n'Roll" is a cover of Led Zeppelin and "Heroes" is David Bowie track.
That was a great night which has finished with stunning versions of these two songs.
See You next time Roger!

Rodge is still a wonderful Rock N Roll singer. Love the guy

[@skarminuk0781]

THIS VERSION IS FABOULOUS THE VOICE SOUND EXACTLY LIKE ROBERT PLANT, AND THE HEROES VERSION ITS FANTASTIC TOO¡¡¡ROGER ITS ALWAYS BE A GREATH MUSICIAN, BUT IT NO EASY LIVE TOGETHER WITH MONSTERS LIKE FREDDIE AND BRIAN..... LONG LIVE TO YOU ROGER.............

[@oiramsq73]

A couple of observations: 1) That drummer is AMAZING! 2) Roger can really sing! “I’m in love with my car” was NOT a fluke! 3) I need a velvet smoking jacket.

[@frontfocus1]

On point #2 - strange that you got it only from this video, as Roger proved that fact with all his career and solo albums.

[@oiramsq73]

@@frontfocus1 maxima mea culpa - I didn’t realize that he had a solo career. I’m not being snarky - I’ll check it out! Thanks!

Originally wasnt that bothered about seeing Roger but after seeing all the brilliant videos and reviews of the concerts I really regret not going.

You missed a brilliant concert I saw him in Bath and it was terrific.

[@versatilians]

I have been watching lots of clips of his last couple shows on KZbin and enjoying every minute of it. I hope they have an official concert DVD release, somewhere down the line. I'd love to hear it captured properly. However, in the meantime, thanks for posting! 🙂

Better late than never for a solo career!!! Fantastic show and audience too almost without cellphones!!!!

[@thanosbathanos]

He's been having a solo career since 1981...

[@glennoc8585]

The session band are very good as you'd expect. I had no idea that Roger did solo shows.

[@mj.k1669]

Almost three members at the stage (excluding Roger) are also part of touring Q+AL band. Roger released his 6th solo album on 1st October 2021, and he decided to rock with his UK Outsider Tour. Tour will end on 22nd Oct'21 in London.

[@brianelmer2511]

Went to this gig in Manchester, but my wife took ill during the support act, ( Colin McCloud ) Who was great. So spent the whole night in the medical room back stage. Thankfully got to see his Liverpool show. The band played Rock It (prime jive) from the Queen album The Game, without Roger on stage and they were absolutely fantastic. A Great Band

[@joannedoe697]

Has he never performed modern times rock ‘n roll in his solo shows, I feel like that song is criminally underrated 😅

[@mikefree5096]

So great 😎 Rock at it's best 🔝🙏🎤

[@RyanMatt]

they expected more Queen songs obviously

[@Nandyfull1987]

Sorte por já terem estes shows. Eu vou ter que esperar pelo verão de 2022.. Grande cover . Muitos nem devem saber quem é David Bowie. Meu herói.

[@antoniocaputi6725]

I love Christina Hizon.

[@scottwhite1963]

What people don't realize is that Roger did a lot of the Opera singing for Queen with Freddie...

damm he has a good voice i´m surprised lol

[@daniellastuart3145]

if i got rock history right it was Roger T and John D that were friends with Bowie in the late 1970's/80's Bowie and Freddy become friends later in the 1980's

[@niksanike6583]

Not. Roger and Decon +Freddy was friends with Bowie from 70’s

[@anneharris606]

Actually, Roger and Bowie finished Under Pressure, according to Brian. He said everyone else left the studio.

[@stefanbranden4898]

Freddy may be the best front man for Queen,,but Roger Taylor has the best voice!!!!!

[@silasaraujo2849]

definitely not, although Roger also has a great voice. And it's Freddie*

[@sarahperks8226]

Two equal beautiful voices 💗

[@roameryang]

Bowie's line sounds harder to handle by Taylor. But Taylor took Plant stuff with ease. just the impression to me.... He did pretty nice for both

I'm having difficulty finding names of the musicians.

[@ptapialam]

bassist it's the same that plays with Queen and Adam Lambert (Neil Fairclough) and the drummer if i'm not wrong it's Tyler Warren, who plays percussion with Queen and Adam Lambert (replacing Rufus Taylor), and of course Spike Edney on keyboards.

[@originaluddite]

Thanks, I thought that was Spike. Now I just need the names of the guitarist and fiddler. :)

[@mj.k1669]

@@originaluddite Christian Mendoza is on the guitar and Christina Hizon (aka Tina Keys) on keys, guitar and more.

[@originaluddite]

Awesome.

[@scottwhite1963]

[@rinalore]

Nice try, but nobody sings it better than the original. Robert Plant taught the "up and comers" how to sing Rock (and Roll with it)! 🇨🇦✌🏻🎶🎸✍🏻♥️🇬🇧✨🌍💫

[@carmenpego7876]

Roger quitese esa barba se debe ver mas lindo de lo que usted es si si si

[@wyavia]

Some may be surprised at the amount of big Queen songs which were not written by Mercury (Radio Ga Ga, We will Rock you, You’re my best Friend, Another one Bites the Dust, Brighton Rock, Flash, I want to Break Free, Kind of Magic, Who Wants to Live Forever, plus many great album tracks). The mystery is why the others all seemed to stop writing after his death, and began the sad decline into becoming their own tribute act with an X-Factor wannabe.

[@marcelamom37]

Who wrote Flash? And Another one bites the dust?

[@marcelamom37]

So devastating must've been Freddy's last days and death. An atomic bomb to them. Glad Roger is back and he's the best by far.

[@robertguerrero5239]

Why do they still need to write as a band? Look what happened when they released 'Cosmos Rocks' with Paul Rodgers. Nobody gave it any attention. Besides, people want to hear the Queen hits. Why do you think the Q+AL shows sell so well? Why mess with the proven formula? They are making plenty of money and keeping the Queen name (and Freddie's memory) alive and well.

[@flora3177]

Shit...
