The late great Tom Petty once said “I hate to generalize on a whole genre of music, but it does seem to be missing that magic element that it used to have.” Well, sometimes you just gotta shake things up and when the old bop is getting tired and needs a rest, you know what you gotta do. Get your leathers on bryl creme up that hair and flip a quarter into the jukebox, cos we’re talkin’ Queen!
If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Modern Times Rock n Roll" or possibly "Oldy timey washboard and fiddle"
Today's episode looks at Roger's first contribution to Queen, "Modern Times Rock 'n' Roll".
NOTE: Skip forward to 16:47 if wanna get straight into the manifestations and wheel spin.
The music at the end of the episode is "Wild Iris Dragon Woman" from Absofunkinlutely's debut album, Funk Shui. You can listen to it here: https://youtu.be/_wkaDgVWvxk
