Star Fleet Project is a solo project of Brian May, Queen's guitarist, and a mini-album of the same name. Released as the work of Brian May + Friends, the album features May, guitarist Eddie Van Halen, drummer Alan Gratzer (then of REO Speedwagon), Phil Chen (session bassist who played with Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart), and Fred Mandel (keyboard player for Alice Cooper and additional keyboard player on Queen's Hot Space Tour and The Works). "[T]he result is high-octane rockist instrumentals, instantly Queenish, and not unlike Flash with added fretboard pyrotechnics".[1] The tapes were not intended to be released and received minimal mixing.[2] "Star Fleet Project was called a 'mini-album' by [May] because he thought it... too short to be a proper album, but too long to be even an EP single".[3]
The EP was re-released along with a collection of other session recordings and alternate takes titled Star Fleet Sessions on 14 July 2023.[4]
