With a juggernaut career spanning six decades, Taylor was the beating heart of Queen, penning massive hits ‘Radio Ga Ga’, ‘A Kind of Magic’ and ‘Days of Our Lives’. He also enjoyed success across the globe with accomplished solo material which reached the heights in the UK charts.
6 Decades???
The beating Heart of Queen???
Success around the Globe with Solo Material???
Did I miss something?

6 decades is right - he released a single with Smile in the 60s:
60s
70s
80s
90s
00s
10s
I'm more frustrated about the press release mentioning nothing about what bonus material will be included

What´s the point of not telling us the final tracklist of The Lot?
I hope any page like Amazon, HMv or similar put it ASAP

"What´s the point of not telling us the final tracklist of The Lot? "
Sounds like there won't be extra's, i really hope I'm wrong:
"The Lot comprises of Roger’s solo albums Fun In Space (1981), Strange Frontier (1984), Happiness? (1994), Electric Fire (1998) and Fun On Earth, as well as the three albums by his band The Cross - Shove It (1988), Mad, Bad And Dangerous To Know (1990) and Blue Rock (1991). Although he was known for enjoying the rock’n’roll lifestyle, Fun On Earth and the breadth of The Lot perfectly showcases Taylor’s versatility and veracious appetite for hard work."

"Veracious" appetite? Say it's not true!

Yes, i hope you´re wrong.
Anyway that description says titles for 8 discs, but in other places we have seen how the package "has" 12 CD and 1 DVD, and that description doesn´t say anything of the DVD

just wondering.....how many sets will be sold worldwide if they don't use the words Radio GG and drummer of Queen......f.e.!!
The beating heart Of Queen...don't make me laugh....shame on you!! There was only one beating heart!!
Again QP is doing his best to (mis)use the name of Queen to make as many profit as possible!!
What will they say when May will release his material again?
'The magical crystal clear 2nd voice of Queen?'

What an odd worldview. There have been a bunch of great albums whose release dates have been delayed for various reasons, whether it's to ensure maximum sales or simply not to compete against other albums that are coming out at the same time.

Still cannot believe there is not a trace of VINYL with either release. OK so The Lot would have been expensive to do on Vinyl - but Fun On Earth....no vinyl - COME ON ?!

Don't think there is much doubt about the bonus cd's. Probs b sides and duets. Who wouldn't want Radio with Shakin Stevens? As for the dvd, would bet its mostly the cyberbarn gig.

Omg. So much bloody negativity! Just fucking wait until it comes out. We've been used to things Queen taking ages to appear over the years. This is nothing new!

I took the 'beating heart' thing as having some sort of punny meaning to do with his role as the drummer, I could be wrong though.
