Michael Jackson’s duets with Queen singer Freddie Mercury could be released

Queen guitarist Brian May says he’s
completing songs recorded in 1983
at Jackson’s home
Queen guitarist Brian
May says he’s working to complete
duets recorded 30 years ago by the
band’s late frontman Freddie
Mercury and Michael Jackson.
May wrote on his blog this month
that he was working on the tapes
with producer William Orbit. He said
the project was “exciting,
challenging, emotionally taxing. But
cool.”
Mercury and Jackson recorded
together at Jackson’s California home
in 1983, but the material was not
released.
May said in 2011 that he had been
given permission by the Jackson
estate to release the recordings.
This month he wrote that “we will
have something for folks to hear in a
couple of months’ time, hopefully.”
