The tour ended in December 1993, when May returned to the studio with fellow Queen band mates Roger Taylor and John Deacon for Queen's final [[studio album]], ''Made In Heaven''. Meanwhile, Cozy Powell and Neil Murray returned to work with Black Sabbath, and both later joined Peter Green's Band. The band reunited in 1998 to promote Brian May's ''Another World'' album. Eric Singer, of later [[KISS]] fame, was brought as the last minute replacement for Cozy Powell, who had died in a car accident earlier that year. In 2005, both Jamie Moses and Spike Edney joined the Queen + Paul Rodgers collaboration on their worldwide tour. Their only release was the [[live album]], ''Live at the Brixton Academy'' in 1993. {{music-stub}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Brian May Band, The}} [[Category:American rock bands]] [[Category:English rock bands]] [[Category:1991 establishments]]
