Ringo Starr, Phil Collins, and Don Henley are just a few examples of drummers who have had successful solo careers. You could add Roger Taylor of Queen to that list. He may not have sold as many albums, but he has had a very healthy solo career. He has just released his seventh solo album, Violence Insane in a Beautiful World, his first since 2021’s Outsider. Taylor has created a very cohesive and strong album with a great deal of meaning throughout. It is a very positive album, with bits of anger, but it is a beautiful album.
The album opens with “A Beautiful World.” Anytime you combine a little science fiction with science fact, it works perfectly. The addition of The Ndlovu Youth Choir with their stunning backing vocals just makes it a great opening.
