The Roger Taylor Band
The Roger Taylor Band was formed in 1994 by Roger to perform material from his second solo album, 'Happiness?'. They toured throughout the UK and Italy in 1994 and 1995, performing Roger's solo material and Queen songs. Live tracks were released on the 'Happiness?' singles in 1994. The band was reformed with a different line-up in 1998 to perform tracks from the 'Electric Fire' album throughout the UK. Members of both bands have appeared on 'Happiness' and 'Electric Fire'. No members of either band have (to my knowledge) been in any notable groups before. Unfortunately, I know very little about any of the musicians involved.
