Robby Valentine – The Beatles Album + The Queen EP 2, 2021

ROBBY VALENTINE is a musical centipede who has already released many releases under his own name and with others. Also a man who was never guided by what others thought or thought was better for him. His albums have always had a bombastic slant with quite a bit of Queen and classical influences.

Queen was his first love as a kid, then Electric Light Orchestra followed, and at the age of twelve The Beatles treasure chest opened to him. The band that ultimately influenced Robby’s two first loves. A journey of discovery in reverse order.

After releasing excellent Queen covers, for Robby it was a logical step to record a Beatles album. The project was primarily a private exercise for Valentine, born out of a fascination with The Beatles’ work and some of Lennon’s solo songs. But the stock of recordings grew and Robby suddenly had a collection of eleven Beatles songs.
So it’s here; “The Beatles Album” was released at the end last year, only 300 CDs, the only format available.
These incredible songs take a new life in Valentine hands. And the Dutch genius still has sense of humor despite his health troubles. The album’s art is an ‘Abbey Road’ parody in which he bravely shows how his life has changed in recent years. We see Robby crossing the road with dark sunglasses and a guide stick for the blind, pulling a cart with instruments.
Due to an eye disease, Robby Valentine is now practically blind. But he learn to play the piano and guitar again, and will never stop creating music.
