Queen Forever is a compilation album by Queen released in 2014. The album had been anticipated for some time for tracks the band had "forgotten about" with vocals from original Queen frontman Freddie Mercury. Queen bassist John Deacon is also on the tapes.

It will be the first Queen album to feature unreleased material from singer Freddie Mercury (who died in 1991) and bassist J
