When their eleventh studio album The Works - produced by Queen and Mack - was released in the UK on February 27th 1984, fans and critics alike hailed it as Queen return to their rock roots and to the traditional Queen sound absent on the previous album. Record Mirror described it as ‘Another jewel in the crown’. For the first time ever the band started the new recordings in Los Angeles in August 1983 and finished at Musicland studios in Germany early the following year. The album cover was conceived by Queen and features an image from a photographic session with legendary Hollywood photographer, the late George Hurrell, who had previously photographed Marilyn Monroe and many other Hollywood greats. 1.

‘Face It Alone’ was originally recorded during the band’s historic 1988 sessions for that album, a prolific period which saw the band lay down around 30 tracks, many of which were never released. “We’d kind of forgotten about this track,” admits Roger Taylor, “but there it was, this little gem. It’s wonderful, a real discovery. It’s a very passionate piece”. Brian May says: “I’m happy that our team were able to find this track. After all these years, it’s great to hear all four of us ... yes, Deacy is there too ... working in the studio on a great song idea which never quite got completed ... until now!”
