Bursting At The Seams 3:41 Written by Mark Ryder Appears on: Bursting At The Seams 7" vinyl Released in 1985. The track was recorded at Queen's Mountain Studios in Montreaux, produced by Roger Taylor and David Richards, and percussion provided also provided by Roger Taylor. Not a bad track, given the era it was released. Camy's vocals are fairly good and slightly raspy. Nothing too notable from Roger's drumming; he just provides a standard backing track. Bursting At The Seams (Instrumental Version) 3:57 Written by Mark Ryder Appears on: Bursting At The Seams 7" vinyl, Bursting At The Seams 12" vinyl An instrumental version of the Backroom "extended" mix. Some vocals here and there remain, not making a purely instrumental track. Bursting At The Seams (Backroom Mix) 3:58 Written by Mark Ryder Appears on: Bursting At The Seams 12" vinyl An extended version of the 7" single. Only 17 seconds are added to this version and whatever was added was not very notable.
Fools Rush In Written by ? Appears on: The Persuader Info coming soon
Too Young 5:10 Written by Bernie Taupin/Elton John Appears on: Ice On Fire An excellent track from Elton John's 1985 album, Ice On Fire, which is an often overlooked album. Roger Taylor provides drums, while fellow Queen member John Deacon plays bass guitar. The song has a slow tempo and is classic Elton John. Highly recommended. Angeline 3:24 Written by Bernie Taupin/Elton John Appears on: Leather Jackets Both Roger Taylor and John Deacon appeared on this track, which appears on Elton's 1986 album, "Leather Jackets." Leather Jackets is widely considered to be a weaker album than his previous 80's releases. This track is nothing special in particular, especially compared to the rest of Elton's catalogue. Angeline is basically a light-hearted throwback 60's style dance rocker.
Dangerous 3:13 Written by ? Appears on: Dangerous, UK Kind Woman Kind 7" vinyl Along with the bands Headstone and Queen, Trident unsuccesfully attempted to sign Eugene Wallace as a package to record companies. Recorded in 1972 and released in 1975, the Dangerous album originated from Trident studios and was released by EMI. Roger plays drums on the title track. The track features accompanying horns and electric guitar and sounds a bit like Joe Cocker (mostly from Wallace's vocals). Not particularly interesting, but worth a listen.
Loving You 4:16 Written by ? Appears on: Loving You 7" vinyl Roger appears on this 1985 single, providing additional drums, synth, and co-producing with David Ricards. Sharkey was the lead singer of the Undertones, a new wave band. The track is very light and airy, making quite a bit of use of the drums and synths provided by Roger. A bit repetitive and of it's time, but not all that bad. Loving You (Extended Version) 5:52 Written by ? Appears on: Loving You 12" vinyl Not all that different from the 7" single version. The extended version has longer periods of synth and drums to fill the space. Nothing special and not really needing an extended version, considering there isn't much to the original.
Survival 4:17 Written by Armstrong/Young Appears on: Tales Of Illusion Recorded during the Night At The Opera Sessions at Sarm East, August 1975. Fox was an obscure classic rock band that seems to have only issued one album, Tales Of Illusion in 1975. Roger provides backing vocals (in harmony with the other members of Fox) on the track Survival. Survival has a light, atmospheric sound; somewhere between Beach Boys and psychedelic rock. There are times when you can pick Roger out, but his voice seems to blend well with the rest of the band.

You Are, You Are 4:03 Written by Gary Numan Appears on: Dance Gary Numan, the one hit wonder who produced cars, wasn't able to duplicate previous success. The same goes for his 1981 album, Dance. This isn't one of Gary's better tracks and is slightly annoying. Roger plays drums on this track. Crash 3:39 Written by Gary Numan Appears on: Dance Again, more of the same from Gary, which isn't necessarily a good or a bad thing. This (like most of his songs) sounds like "Cars". This track is so similar to Cars that it could almost be considered a sequel. Roger plays drums. Moral 4:33 Written by Gary Numan Appears on: Dance Not a very bad track at all. Moral, not surprisingly, also has a very similar sound to "Cars". Moral has a heavy beat, lots of synths, and a very slow tempo that builds up speed at the end. Gary's vocals work very well for the track. Roger plays Tom Toms.
The Stonk 3:46 Written by ? Appears on: The Stonk 7" vinyl, The Stonk 12" vinyl, The Stonk CD single Info coming soon The Stonk (Extended Version) 5:17 Written by ? Appears on: The Stonk 12" vinyl, The Stonk CD single Info coming soon
How Come You're So Dumb 2:41 Written by Taylor/Vance Appears on: How Come you're So Dumb 7" vinyl Recorded and produced 1979 at Mountain Studios, Montreux, during Queen Game Sessions. Released only on a UK 7" single. Roger plays drums, guitars, keyboards, bass, and produced this 1980 release. The backing instrumentation is actually quite good and reminiscent of other Roger tracks. The vocals by Hilary Hilary remind you of an 80s new wave performer. Not a bad track. Rich Kid Blues 3:08 Written by Reid Appears on: How Come you're So Dumb 7" vinyl Recorded during the same session as How Come You're So Dumb, Rich Kid Blues is the B-side to the 7" single. Again, Roger produces and provides all instrumentation. The track starts out as a ballad, but quickly turns into an 80s synthesizer rocker.
Who Wants To Live Forever 3:45 Written by Brian May Appears on: Who Wants To Live Forever 7" vinyl, Queen Greatest Video Hits II A 1989 single for the British Bone Marrow Donor Appeal. Brian May produces, played guitar, and keyboards. Drums by Roger Taylor and bass by John Deacon. Ian Meeson and Belinda Gillett provide vocals. Who Wants To Live Forever (Instrumental Version) 3:42 Written by Brian May Appears on: Who Wants To Live Forever 7" vinyl, Who Wants To Live Forever 12" vinyl Info coming soon Who Wants To Live Forever (Extended Version) 4:08 Written by Brian May Appears on: Who Wants To Live Forever 12" vinyl Info coming soon Who Wants To Live Forever (Demo) Written by Brian May Appears on: Who Wants To Live Forever 12" vinyl Info coming soon
You Nearly Did Me In 5:46 Written by Ian Hunter Appears on: All-American Alien Boy (1976) A great song from the former lead singer to Mott The Hoople. This track features Freddie, Brian, and Roger singing backing vocals. Appears on Hunter's All American Boy album, which was rereleased in 1996. Worth finding just for this song alone. Michael Picasso (Live Version) 6:45 Written by ? Appears on: Michael Picasso CD single, Once Bitten Twice Shy compilation CD Info coming soon
Love Don't Live Here Anymore 3:55 Written by Gregory/Miles Appears on: Take It Or Leave It, Love Don't Live Here Anymore 7" vinyl Quite a big UK hit for Jimmy Nail from 1985. Roger provides drums, synths, and co-produced the track with David Richards. Not a bad track, with a has a slow, deliberate tempo. Very atmospheric and slightly bluesy. Love Don't Live Here Anymore (Extended Version) Written by Gregory/Miles Appears on: Love Don't Live Here Anymore 12" vinyl Information coming soon.

Play The Game Tonight 3:27 Written by Ehart/Flower/Frazier/Livgren/Williams Appears on: Vinyl Confessions, UK/US Play The Game Tonight 7" vinyl A great Kansas track. The track starts out very slow, almost as a ballad, and then turns into more of a rocker. From there the song alternates back and forth from ballad into the rocking chorus. Roger provides backing vocals. Recorded in Los Angelas, California in August 1982, during a short break before the L.A. shows of the US tour. Right Away 4:07 Written by Elefante/Elefante Appears on: Vinyl Confessions, US Right Away 7" vinyl A classic Kansas track that was a hit in America, and is still in heavy rotation on US Classic Rock radio. A fantastic rocking track. Recorded in Los Angelas, California in August 1982, during a short break before the L.A. shows of the US tour. Roger provides backing vocals. Diamonds And Pearls 4:50 Written by Livgren Appears on: Vinyl Confessions A very different track from the other songs from this album. The track features heavy use of horns and piano and does not have the rock edge that is a constant throughout the album. Recorded in Los Angelas, California in August 1982, during a short break before the L.A. shows of the US tour. Roger provides backing vocals.
Love And Lust Written by ? Appears on: Unreleased An unreleased duet by Lydia Canaan and Roger Taylor. It is unclear whether Roger plays any sort of percussion.
Sometime Love 4:19 Written by Clarkin Appears on: Vigilante Magnum were a 70s progressive rock band that are barely known outside of the UK (and barely known inside the UK at that). Roger sings backing vocals on two tracks from their 1986 album, Vigilante (which he produced with David Richards). Sometime Love is a fairly typical 80s rock track, with synth, heavy drums, and guitar. Roger's backing vocals are in harmony with other band mates, but can be heard at the high end. When The World Comes Down On You 5:22 Written by Clarkin Appears on: Vigilante Again, sounding like a typical 80s rock power ballad with synthesizer and dramatic drums. Nothing remarkable. Roger provides backing vocals. When The World Comes Down On You (Single Edit) Written by Clarkin Appears on: When The World Comes Down On You 7" vinyl Information coming soon.
Mel Smith's Greatest Hits 3:10 Written by Mel Smith Appears on: Mel Smith's Greatest Hits 7" vinyl Instrumentation, backing vocals, and production done by Roger. You can actually hear Roger's backing vocals fairly clearly. Another comedy track with some harmonica and electric guitar. It is what it is. I imagine if you like Mel Smith you'll like this, otherwise, skip it. Richard & Joey 2:26 Written by Mel Smith Appears on: Mel Smith's Greatest Hits 7" vinyl A 1981comedy track by UK Comedian Mel Smith in which Roger provides all instrumentation, sings backing vocals, and produces. The track starts spoken word with some piano and goes into some over the top vocals by Mel. Not particularly funny or good.

Under A Raging Moon 6:42 Written by Downes/Parr Appears on: Under A Raging Moon, UK Under A Raging Moon 7" vinyl From Daltrey's 1986 album, which served as an ode to former Who drummer Keith Moon. Many all-star drummers appeared on the album (including Cozy Powell of Brian May Band fame). Under A Raging Moon was released before the album, as a single in 1985. The track starts off with some synthesizer effects that are very similar to "We Won't Get Fooled Again." Overall, the track sounds very 80s rock and very Who all the same. Roger's drumming is excellent; he even manages to squeeze a few solo drumming bits in here and there. Under A Raging Moon (US Single Edit) Written by Downes/Parr Appears on: US Under A Raging Moon 7" vinyl There is a US edit of this track from the US 7" single. It is possible that it is the same version that appears on the Roger Daltrey Anthology CD collection. The time of that track is 4:31. Anyone with information, please contact me.

Toss The Feathers 3:33 Written by N/A (traditional Irish folk) Performers: The Coors, Roger Taylor Appears on: 46664 The Nelson Mandela Concerts Part 2 - Long Walk To Freedom A traditional Irish folk song, typically featuring a pan flute and fiddle. This version with The Corrs and Roger Taylor is a bit more rock-friendly. A very good instrumental.
