Roger Meddows-Taylor , born the July 26th 1949 with Kings Lynn (Norfolk, the United Kingdom) is beater of rock'n'roll, especially known for its prolific career with the group Queen. Not to confuse with its homonym Roger Taylor, beater of the group Duran Duran. Its style, very personal, is a mixture of heaviness and smoothness. It quotes Keith Moon (The Who), John Bonham (Led Zeppelin) and Mitch Mitchell (Jimi Hendrix Experience) as being its principal influences. A little in withdrawal compared to Freddie Mercury and Brian May, figureheads of Queen, it does not remain about it less like one of the reponsables " its Queen" , at the same time full and sophisticated. Roger Taylor is father of five children.
