Roger Taylor – Violence Insane in a Beautiful World (CD)
Product Details
Roger Taylor has always been the restless one, the Queen drummer whose solo work consistently pushed further into personal territory than the band's arena-sized anthems allowed. His choice to cover "Jealous Guy" says something about where his head is at; John Lennon's meditation on vulnerability fits naturally alongside Taylor's own gift for pairing melodic directness with genuine emotional weight, a combination that's defined his best solo moments since "Fun in Space" in 1981.
Violence Insane in a Beautiful World is the brand-new studio album from Roger Taylor, legendary Queen songwriter, musician & singer. Roger wrote (with the exception of an exquisite cover of ‘Jealous Guy,’ which he describes as “one of the greatest, ballads ever written”), produced, sang, and performed all the songs on the album himself. Violence Insane in a Beautiful World is Roger Taylor’s seventh album in a solo career stretching back to 1977 and is his first since 2021’s critically and fan-acclaimed top 3 album Outsider.
