COZY POWELL & BRIAN MAY

1992 - Brian May - Back To The Light

Back To The Light, Brian's long-awaited debut solo album, was released in September 1992, in conjunction with Too Much Love Will Kill You; both hit the Top Ten in their respective charts, with the album reaching #6 and the single peaking at #5. (In the United States, the album even charted at #159, with a bonus track of Driven By You, with Cozy Powell on drums and Neil Murray on bass.) Two further singles – the title track, #19 UK, and Resurrection, #33 – were extracted from the album, though the main point of interest was Brian's world tour, the first time he had gone out as a solo artist. The Brian May Band – Brian on vocals and guitars, Cozy Powell on drums, Neil Murray on bass, Spike Edney on keyboards, Mike Caswell on guitars, and Maggie Ryder, Miriam Stockley, and Chris Thompson on backing vocals – debuted on November 1, 1992, in Buenos Aires, with a five-date tour of South America. By the time the band wound its way to North America in February, Caswell, Ryder, Stockley, and Thompson were replaced by Jamie Moses on guitars and Cathy Porter and Shelley Preston on backing vocals, which would be the lineup that would remain steady for the remainder of the year.

1993 - Brian May - Live At The Brixton Academy

Live at the Brixton Academy is a recording of The Brian May Band's first show in London on June 15 1993. The album is an almost complete and unedited version of the concert. Their performance of John Lennon's "God (The Dream Is Over)" was not included on the album due to copyright issues. Keyboard player Spike Edney had to play a second solo (neither are on the CD, the first being on the video) after May had technical problems before playing "Last Horizon". Also, "Back To The Light", "Tie Your Mother Down", "Love Token", "Headlong", "Let Your Heart Rule Your Head", "Resurrection" (in particular, Cozy Powell's drum solo), "We Will Rock You" and "Hammer to Fall" are all slightly shortened on the CD, but appear in full on the 90-minute video of the same event. The spoken part after "Love Token" has been cut because it contained too many profanities, but it can be heard fully on the unofficial audience recording.

Track list:
1. Back to the Light
2. Driven by You
3. Tie Your Mother Down
4. Love Token
5. Headlong
6. Love of My Life
7. 39/Let Your Heart Rule Your Head
8. Too Much Love Will Kill You
9. Since You've Been Gone
10. Now I'm Here
11. Guitar Extravagance
