Vocal powerhouse Adam Lambert has been fronting the iconic rock band Queen for a couple of years now and together, they have finished in the Top 10 of Ultimate Classic Rock's Best Tours of 2014 run down.

The group performed a series of North American concert dates earlier this year and they will return to the UK in 2015 for a number of shows, which are due to kick off on January 13 at the Newcastle Arena.

Lambert and Queen finished 10th in Ultimate Classic Rock's Best 2014 Tours list and an accompanying statement on the website explains: "Queen and Adam Lambert finally turned their attentions to North America, having only appeared together on a series of overseas dates since first collaborating on 2009's 'American Idol' finale. Lambert, Brian May and Roger Taylor played a month of dates this summer, blending songs both familiar and obscure ('Love Kills!') along the way. Whether this is Queen's final tour remained a question mark, however, as May -- in an opening press conference -- said, 'Let's rock those beautiful arenas just one more time.'"

Ultimate Classic Rock placed Sir Paul McCartney at No.9, Sammy Hagar at 8, Jeff Beck's summer shows with ZZ Top at No.7, Aerosmith and Slash at No.5, and Fleetwood Mac at No.4. The No.1 position was taken by Mötley Crüe and Alice Cooper.
