Guitarist Brian May has revealed that Michael Jackson's estate have given the band permission to release a series of duets which they recorded with the late singer during the 1980s.

He told the Evening Standard: "Michael [Jackson] used to come and see us when we were on tour in the States. He and Freddie became close friends, close enough to record a couple of tracks together at Michael's house, tracks which have never seen the light of day."

Queen have previously announced plans to release a new album of old demos featuring Mercury, with May revealing that he had been going through the band's old material with drummer Roger Taylor to compile a selection of unreleased tracks for a forthcoming LP. It is unknown whether the Jackson duets will be released as part of this or not.
